Help!! Should I Choose GoDaddy or Hostgator for Hosting

rainking · 09-09-2008, 08:51 AM

I need some fellow warriors' advice on hosting.

I've been using hostgator's reseller's package for about $25 a month, but upon checking godaddy's premium linux plan for $15, it looks to be a better deal.

Hostgator's been a little spotty for me as far as uptime lately, and i've never had a problem with godaddy.

Anyone have any advice on this one, or can anyone suggest any alternate hosting companies that allow unlimited hosting of sites, near perfect uptime, and free add ons like wordpress?

Martha Richardson · 09-09-2008, 10:18 AM

I offer a true hosting reseller account for $14.95 per month. Linux servers with Cpanel and Fantastico, which allows for easy 2-click installtion of Wordress and dozens of other applications. If you're interested, give me a PM.

GoDaddy servers are SO locked down it makes them difficult to use. Scripts can't be installed, certain functions dont work....avoid the hassle.

Josh Anderson · 09-09-2008, 11:44 AM

I would recommend neither.

Godaddy has traditionally had a low artificial limit on simultaneous connections... as low at 51 simultaneous connections and your server is not available to your visitors.

Always read the fine print.

Kenneth Maddux · 09-09-2008, 12:56 PM

Thank you for the infomation!

primuskannan · 09-09-2008, 01:16 PM

Some scripts with heavy databases does not work on godaddy. Check with their support.
Godaddy is good for domain management while hostgator is ok for hosting.

Trent Brownrigg · 09-09-2008, 01:19 PM

Hostgator or some other popular hosting company, but not godaddy!

Preben Frenning · 09-09-2008, 02:04 PM

I think Godaddy is WAY to controversial! They bomb you with promo's and s**t.

I personally use hostgator, and i'm incredibly satisfied.
Their support will blow your mind, and the prices are good. Not to mention it's safe.
They really know how to take care of their customers as far as I can see.

Jason Dittberner · 09-09-2008, 02:16 PM

The interface of GoDaddy should be enough to steer you clear. Way too much stuff going on. Who has time to dig for every single action you want to perform. Two thumbs down on the GoDaddy is my vote.

mikegates · 09-09-2008, 02:22 PM

Wow, I think you have a clear answer and I agree with everyone here.

I have a Godaddy account I use for testing php scripts. Scripts that work on all cpanel type web hosts work fine, but many won't work on Godaddy.

Plus, the non-standard Godaddy hosting management interface is slow and not intuitive.

I have been with Hostgator for a few years and have had very few problems with them, and no down time.

Go HostGator without a doubt.

I don't want to hijack your thread, but since we're on the topic, has anyone tried namecheap.com's hosting?

Kim Standerline · 09-09-2008, 02:46 PM

Neither

Godaddy are crap and hostgator are becoming very unreliable

Zoom are pretty good

flavius333 · 09-09-2008, 03:33 PM

HostGator all the way.

I wouldn't host with a domain registrar, and I wouldn't register domains with a hosting company.

David McGimpsey · 09-09-2008, 04:09 PM

Don't use GoDaddy for hosting.

I have a couple of my original sites hosted with GoDaddy and hate having to go in to make web site changes. The hosting is slow and everything takes a million clicks to do.

I have never used hostgator but would choose them over GoDaddy any day.

Cherilyn Woodhouse · 09-09-2008, 04:16 PM

Actually I do use namecheap's hosting - and because it is a separate account in a weird sort of way, there's no confusion if you cancel hosting... You keep all your domains.

I'm quite happy. Other than PayPal billing being manual instead of a subscription, but that is no big deal. They email you an invoice, you pay, end of story.

Great support, great price, great package... I'm happy. I'd encourage you to check it out.

I currently have an account with Godaddy and would NOT recommend them. My understanding is they have a zero tolerance spam policy. I would use Hostgator or Shooting Star. Shooting Start offers very competitive rates and uses a standard C-panel.

I have a Namecheap account. They're OK, but no phone support. I'd go with a company with phone support, like Shooting Star who uses the same C-panel as Namecheap.

Michael Silvester · 09-09-2008, 05:00 PM

Godaddy Sucks for hosting! Thats the first thing I get
clients to do...is to host somewhere else other than
Godaddy.

Take Care,

Michael Silvester

Alton Hargrave · 09-09-2008, 05:00 PM

I would not use HostGator or Godaddy. I have had great service with SRLnet.com I have a reseller's acct there.
Alton

Eric Johnson · 09-09-2008, 05:03 PM

Hostgator for sure...not even close.

Jeffrey Louis · 09-09-2008, 05:06 PM

host gatorrrrrrr

greenovni · 09-09-2008, 05:13 PM

My choice is Hostgator by far.

bgmacaw · 09-09-2008, 06:32 PM

I have hosting accounts on both.

GoDaddy is 'OK' but it has some limitations and quirks that a regular cPanel hosting arrangement doesn't have. I've got about a dozen WP blogs and some static sites there. I haven't had any significant downtime problems from them. The annoying parts are that some scripts don't work, updating some things, like WP permalinks, takes up to 30 minutes to work and the excessive advertising. I've kept their hosting plan just to have my hosting spread out but I'd probably go with a cPanel based host if I was starting out from scratch.

Host Gator has been excellent for me so far. Great support, no downtime. I recommend them.

Mike Montgomery · 09-09-2008, 07:12 PM

Hostgator all the way in my opinion.

Every host has their issues but I will never
go back to godaddy.

But that's just me

napoleonfirst · 09-09-2008, 07:23 PM

Hostgator. Definitively is better than Godaddy.

09-09-2008, 07:27 PM

I certainly would not use GoDaddy's servers which have not beed updated since 2001. They are slow, crappy, and not very secure. One of the worst hosting companies on the net.

Go with a proven leader, hostgator.com ...

Hi Michael,
That makes 2 of us ..lol I refuse to install or build a script on godaddy's servers. Client will not change host then I refuse the job.

clawHAMMER · 09-09-2008, 09:41 PM

Kick GoDaddy to the curb. A nightmare to navigate and the barrage of promos is ridiculous.

For what it's worth I use Bluehost for hosting and have been very pleased with the support and right on down the line from there has been exceptional as well.

You can find plenty of blasts on here about GoDaddy so I wouldn't even consider them at all if I were looking for a hosting company.

bozz723 · 02-16-2010, 12:40 AM

Hostgator is all I recommend. GoDaddy has been known to be a nightmare.

costos gohdohb · 02-16-2010, 01:27 AM

GoDaddy isn't recommended by big-name people. Because they were disappointed & had to move to another host

ceburealestate · 02-16-2010, 01:29 AM

been to Godaddy hosting and learned something from it then now i use thePlanet

blackcat123 · 02-16-2010, 01:30 AM

Hostgator is certainly better than Godaddy since it's a company dedicated for hosting. Moreover their customer support is excellent as well.

Chris Worner · 02-16-2010, 01:48 AM

Hostgator all the way, very good support and decent pricing.

vetzkov · 02-16-2010, 01:53 AM

I currently have my websites on DreamHost but I will soon transfer all my projects to Hostgator - they are just better than the rest imho. GoDaddy might be the biggest domain name seller in the world but their hosting is not at such a high level and furthermore the support they offer can sometimes be annoying and even useless.

I will go with Hostgator on this one.

Tsvetan Vetskov

ourland · 02-16-2010, 01:53 AM

Forget GODADDY, opt for hostgator or ipower or web4africa

fredjr1978 · 02-16-2010, 02:14 AM

I havent even read what everyone else had wrote to on this, but I would by far say Hostgator! GoDaddy is a domain name company, not a hosting company. I mean, they do hosting, but its not there specialty IMHO.

Bence Ur · 02-16-2010, 02:19 AM

Hostgator is very good. I get response from their customer service in 1-2 hours, even on Sunday.

E-supreme · 02-16-2010, 03:20 AM

Hostgator! Especially if your building sites using wordpress.
I get my domains with godaddy but never got there hosting!

MacS09 · 02-16-2010, 03:27 AM

I've moved to Hostgator and am now using Namecheap for domain registration instead of Godaddy. Godaddy boasts about their low prices... check out Namecheap. And I found their support very good, too.

AlanEngel · 02-16-2010, 01:34 PM

I just switched from GoDaddy to d9 Hosting. Unfortunately it is not a cPanel-to-cPanel migration because of GoDaddy's setup, so I had to do some extra work to get my emails going again, but the customer service was excellent and website migration was seamless.

ashleyrader · 02-16-2010, 04:39 PM

I've used both hostgator and godaddy, hands down hostgator had a leg up. I've also used hostnine which has been pretty good. However far and away the best host I've used is Liquidweb.com - their support is beyond fantastic.

impulsell · 02-16-2010, 07:45 PM

I've used both in the past too and I also preferred Hostgator. I found it pretty simple to use although I did have a few problems with the server speed. Sometimes pages would load in a split second, sometimes they'd take 5+ seconds.

Also, I second the previous post about Hostgator's customer service. I've chatted to them on the phone and they have the livechat and I've always found them really helpful. Godaddy seem to make it a bit harder.

jasondinner · 02-16-2010, 07:58 PM

Seriously, do yourself a HUGE favor and don't host your site with GoDaddy.

Don't even register domains there.

Avoiding them like the plague now will save you a lot of frustration in the future.

Hostgator all the way...

...and Namecheap for domain names.

- Jason

UltimateWarrior · 02-17-2010, 12:13 PM

I have both Hostgator and Godaddy hosting account.

I would recommend for domain registration to register with GoDaddy and hosting to register with Hostgator who have the hosting cpanel function which are a plus benefit.

newfr8 · 02-17-2010, 02:34 PM

Hostgator's performance and service is excellent.

cypherslock · 02-17-2010, 08:35 PM

I'd go for Namecheap for domains + Hostgator for hosting.

thomashoi · 02-17-2010, 09:42 PM

I'm using godaddy with domain name registration and bluehost for hosting my files for over a year.

So far, 100% uptime for my website and no problems.

Nell · 06-03-2011, 03:39 PM

I use godaddy and always have problems with my hosting. But, even though that's a true pain, the real problem is whenever you call about their service not working they always try to blame wordpress or your designer.

Then what really piss me off is they ALWAYS try to upsale you in the middle of an outage. I'm like are you kidding me?

We are on the same boat. I stopped buying domains from Godaddy and now using NameCheap, nice and clean

For hosting, I have using Hostgator for almost 2 years now and I can say they are the best. Excellent support.

Should I Choose GoDaddy or Hostgator for Hosting I havent even read what everyone else had wrote to on this, but I would by far say Hostgator! GoDaddy is a domain name company, not a hosting company. I mean, they do hosting, but its not there specialty IMHO.
