I have ongoing problems with my site due to a subscription for SiteLock sold to me at twice the market price by Hostgator. The SiteLock subscription was purchased to resolve a major hack. They did a good job with this but since then I have had endless problems. Most have to do with incompatibles with my site registrar Cloudflare and Hostgarot / Sitelock. No one seems to be able resolve the problem.
While I have been generally satisfied with Hostgator the inability to resolve this issue has me looking for a new hosting service.
Hey Bob,
We hate to see you go but we understand. We do want to wish you luck on your future hosting endeavor.

Answer: SITEGROUND FIXED IN HOURS WHAT HOSTGATOR DID NOT OR COULD NOT FIX IN 9 DAYS
Answer: If you go straight to smartchat, it is very easy - you only need to find the smartchat button. I have worked with the Internet since web browsers were invented, so I know most of the answers already. That means that when I have a problem that I can't solve, it is going to be a real stinker for HostGator support to solve - I only bring them the difficult ones. Recently, I had an ISP who gave me terrible service, and the internet kept dropping out every few minutes. The Hostgator smartchat expert kept contact with me on and of for about an hour and three quarters until he had worked out the answer for me. That is what I call RELIABLE service.
