At first, I met some difficulties, not being a technician, I had to figure out why Hostgator wasn't optimal for my websites. It seems that some updates of Wordpress and plugins fixed everything and now I have no complaint to formulate.

I honestly don't even think about it except at renewal time, which is a big positive. I rarely have issues with my site and if I do, they are easily adressed.
