    4 out of 5 stars Posted 2020-09-01

    Pros: Really affordable introductory pricing
    cpanel for website management

    Overall: HostGator is definitely a step up from free hosting services at a very small price and fulfills basic requirements.

    4 out of 5 stars Posted 2020-06-28

    Pros: Easy to use cpanel dashboard
    Free SSL certificate will all plans
    Good up-time & add-on security features
    Good customer service
    Really affordable for starter plans

    Cons: Higher renewal prices - which is a industry wide 'thing' now.
    Weaker performance than alternatives.

    Overall: HostGator is one of the cheapest reputed web hosts today. It is great for anyone looking to setup a new website at low price and decent performance. Best part for me is they provide Indian servers for better speed although at a bit higher cost.

    "Decent cheap hosting, but lots of issues"

    2 out of 5 stars Posted 2020-04-14

    Pros: Great option if you're looking for a cheap way to host your site. Especially if you're fine with shared hosting.

    Cons: Their support is crap. Had issues with SSL's being issued constantly and they never could keep it working and always had to call in. Was annoying.

    Overall: Overall, it's ok for the basic person. But if you're serious about having a good website speed and longevity i'd look elsewhere.
