Terrible support. No help at all. I can not wait to move my business to another company.
Pixels, pixels, pixels lol
There needs to be a beginner section of how to size pictures, how to retain quality, and understand of file size for ease of opening.
Then trouble shooting, what is after the thumb nail for example is correctly sized and confirmed in file attributes yet it still dose not upload right... all messed up. Perhaps clearing cookies, where else?
Thank you
Customer service has been very helpful. I am not well-versed in web design or the running of a website. Customer service reps have helped my learning curve and got my site up and running with little issue.

Affordable, but slow and unreliable. I'm hosting some clients' websites on HostGator just while I develop them, but I would never use HostGator for their live sites.

I am obviously new on Hostgator, it has been fine to date. Few weeks ago I did experience some issues, and tried to reach out, but the response never came, so I had to navigate on my own, until I finally got the issue solved.
Maybe you could improve on your turn around time, I mean it's been over 3 weeks since I logged a query, and there was no response.
Thank you
I had a great experience the representative solved my issues
Awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome

HostGator just works. I chose it because it is intuitive and easy to use. These things are even more important than price sometimes, as long as technical support is just a chat or phone call away. Great platform!
Hey Diego,
That is an awesome review! Thank you for letting all our customers know!

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.
