About HostGator
HostGator is one of the world's most recognizable web hosting brands, known by its friendly blue alligator mascot and serving millions of domains since 2002. Founded by Brent Oxley while still a student at Florida Atlantic University, HostGator grew from a dorm-room project into a hosting giant.
Now part of the Newfold Digital family, HostGator offers shared hosting, cloud hosting, WordPress hosting, VPS, dedicated servers, reseller hosting, and a drag-and-drop website builder (Gator Builder). Their shared plans feature unmetered bandwidth, free SSL, one-click WordPress installs, and a generous 45-day money-back guarantee.
HostGator is especially popular with first-time website owners and small businesses due to its straightforward pricing, extensive knowledge base, and 24/7 support via phone, live chat, and email. Their Provo, Utah data center serves customers across North and South America.
