Hostgator- Baby Croc or Aluminum Package?

9 replies
I may be over complicating this, so any input would be appreciated. I in the process of setting up my first websites, blogs, etc. and need them to be hosted. I also have a client that I do some email campaigns through aweber for.

So does it may more sense to sign up for the baby croc or a reseller account. I guess what I am thinking in the future, I may be able to offer hosting to clients, if I decide to go down that road. Or would it be better to start with the baby croc, and then add a reseller account down the road if needed.


Thanks in advance

    I use baby croc package on one of my sites, and I am pretty happy with them , no problems so far, I recommend that. And also, as Chester said, if you need more (i don't think so), you can always upgrade your account.

    I appreciate the confirmation of the croc package. My head was on overload and was having a hard time making a simple decision. I don't know if anyone can relate
    I've been researching keywords and writing articles most of the day. My goal is to write 10 articles each for 2 different topics by end of day Monday. 6 down on 1 subject, I feel like I am back in college.

      Oh my goodness, don't get bogged down in something like this, you have pretty much unlimited everything with a Baby Croc account, more than enough room to grow. And, when you do outgrow the Baby, they can easily transfer you to another account, no big deal.

      The best thing now is to concentrate on your core business and marketing efforts.

      Good luck.

    dmderoeck -Thanks for the encouragement and admonishment. You are 100% correct. I am working diligently to stay focused, as I am a self-admitted info junkie. Baby croc it is.

          For a few sites baby crock is fine, I started out with it, and the price is pretty much unbeatable.

          What I like with Hostgator is their support, whatever problem I had or any issue whatsoever they solved it within a few hours. Recently they have also stepped up their security because of a lot of hacking, so if you try to install some script and it does not work as it should contact Hostgator support before contacting script merchant, they'll help you asap.

      Better go with Baby for now. Later when you need, you can upgrade it anytime.

    It depends how quickly you are going to get other sites up and running.

    If you will have more than a dozen within a couple of months and then more after that, I would go with the reseller account straight away.
