It's not a user friendly website builder. And when I tried to cancel they told me I couldn't. Should have gone with Wordpress or go daddy instead.
Hey Deanna,
We are sorry to hear you feel this way and had trouble cancelling. We do see that your package is set to cancel now and we do wish you the best of luck with your future hosting endeavors.

I'd used them before. Enjoyed the service. Appreciate the options, and ease of use. Probly wouldn't be the easiest for a complete beginner, but it suits me well enough.
Hey David,

Found it on a youtube tutorial. Gave a 2 star right now since the loading time's taking too long. I cant get anything done on my website. Asked for help yesterday, you guys resolved it, and now it's back.

This is NOT a user friendly hosting company and finding a template is painful, actually. Don't know if I login under Word Press, or Host Gator or what! I have built 2 sites many years ago, and it was simpler back then!
Hi Marge,
It's unfortunate to hear you have been running into these problems while using HostGator. Rest assured I have created a case for you and sent it to our escalations team. They will be in touch soon to see what we can do to help you out. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

I chose HostGator based on positive online reviews. Unfortunately, I found the layout very unnatural and ultimately too confusing for me to continue. The color choice is very unengaging, and I don't say this to be rude. I have experimented with a handful of web hosting platforms, and I would love to return once the platform has been made more intuitive.
Hey Moryah,
We hate to hear you feel this way but we definitely appreciate your feedback. We will pass this along.
