Lots of people ask me about Web Hosting and I must admit there’s so many to choose from. A lot of the basic prices are roughly the same but what you get for your buck varies tremendously. To try and help, I have decided to review some of the most popular Web Hosting companies, and I’m going to start with HostGator.

Web Hosting For New Marketers

HostGator is excellent for those new to internet marketing and seasoned veterans alike; they have three main pricing plans with the favorite being ‘Baby Plan’. The current price today is $7.95 per month, and for that you get unlimited domains, unlimited disk space and unlimited bandwidth (subject to fair use policy). For those who are new and need to watch the pennies this is an excellent plan. If you don’t know how to build a web site then you’ll find the Easy Web Site Builder a breeze.

If you’re just putting your ‘toe in the water’ then maybe the ‘Hatching Plan will be the best Web Hosting plan for you. This allows you to host one domain but still gives you unlimited disk space and unlimited bandwidth. (You can always upgrade later).

For those who fancy building a few web sites or Blogs to sell along with Web Hosting, then have a look at the Reseller plans which start from $24.95 per month. If you need a dedicated server they start from $174.

HostGator is one of the most popular CPanel top hosting sites for internet marketers, and you can feel perfectly at home with just one or a large number of websites. With a wide range of plans which I know can be confusing for the beginner but they do make it easy to start low and upgrade as your business grows.

HostGator provides good live support. Unlike many services, the live chat option is staffed pretty much 24/7 and you will usually be talking to somebody who can actually help you, at least with shared and reseller Web Hosting plans. When it comes to setting up a dedicated server, however, you will need to know what you are doing and may have to wait longer for help, but that’s for the more experienced of you.

HostGator stand out among the top Web Hosting sites for low to mid range services such as shared hosting and reseller packages, and don’t forget the unlimited disk space and bandwidth.

If like me you love Blogging you can host an unlimited number of blogs under one hosting account. HostGator is definitely worth a try.
