Hostgator Review & Hostgator Coupon - Hostgator Hosted

This web log www.hostgatorreview.org is hosted with hostgator hosting, and is now almost 2 months hosted here and i been busy writing about hostgator reviews. This and that, and already cover most of the important features in hostgator hosting.

Setup Blog at hostgator is not hard, and the same to other hosting that offering cpanel. You will have two option, one to use the cpanel > fantastico, and setup the blog from there. Or you setup the blog manually using script downloaded from wordpress.org

Installation from fantastico is not problem at all, and only require few clicks and get the job done. Use this if you are not familiar with technical stuff.

For me, i will choose manual installation. Here is why i choose manual method:

1. I can keep an exact copy of script at my local PC.
2. Easy customization of script, and upload to server later on.
3. Local backup purposes. Since i organise my local files together, i can easy backup them weekly. Always backup your data, you dont want to lost it.

Today i read an online news, and saying that Hostgator.com inc is extending its business, and renting an extra 1700 unit of servers from “The Planet’s Houston” and “Dallas data centers”. The Planet’s facility in Dallas, Texas, enabling it to access Tier-1 backbone providers such as UUNet, Global Crossing, Sprint, Level 3, Verio and AT and T and AboveNet.

Tips: If you are having dedicated server with hostgator hosting, you will notice that when you make a WHOIS check on the domain name, the datacenter/location is refer to The Planet. Which means these servers are located at the planet datacentre. And for dedicated server or reseller plan, you will have your own private DNS name, for you own branding advantage.

It also reveal that hostgator hosts more than 500,000 web sites and with 2006 revenue exceeding $11 million. Thats a lot of money. And proof a solid growth in hostgator hosting.

Well, as a hostgator customer, i hope for better hosting service and features in short future as well

A small upgrade would definately worth it. Read more info from hostgator hosting

How to upgrade hostgator hosting plan?
I visited the hostgator support/knowledgebase site, and found a useful quote:
“To upgrade, please fill out http://www.hostgator.com/upgrade.php  Usually we have uprades done within a few hours, however please allow up to 8 hours.”

So, i visited the link and fill in the hostgator upgrade form as following:

Hostgator hosting upgrade and pricing calculation:
“You will be billed at a prorated amount for the remainder of your month at time of upgrade. (Example: If you pay us $9.95 a month for the Baby Croc plan and wanted to upgrade to the Swamp plan, which is $14.95 a month, that is a $5 a month difference.If you were half way into your billing cycle you would only be billed a $2.50 upgrade fee.) ” Host gator upgrade confirmation email received after few seconds
“Your Ticket has been received and a member of our staff will review it and reply accordingly. Listed below are details of this Ticket. Please make sure the Ticket ID remains in the subject at all times…”

Almost everyday i visited this site, and hope to see it still online all time. Hostgator web hosting not let me down at all. And this site is all time up and running as i seen. This hostgator hosted website speed is reasonable and load quit fast. Much faster than other hosting that i using.

Other that that, almost every two or three days, i will visit the wordpress blog page to edit and updates this hostgator review blog. Indead, i found out that the wordpress blog response quit fast. And the page load is OK. Not much obvious delay or hang, as we seen on slow hosting server.

Althought this host gator shared hosting plan is suitable for me after all. I still considering to purchase/upgrade to baby plan. Where i can host unlimited web sites. $9.95 a month, and host unlimited websites with unlimited mysql database. This is the best offer, and best support host i come across.
