Shortly, I may be looking for a new Host.
The site is a Photo Gallery, This will be Coppermine or Gallery2. I have a Parked Domain and a Addon domain (this is a blog with Word Press) - its not a busy site - As a UK based user, is Host Gator a good choice? My current host is based in the US and unfortunatly over the past while got somewhat slow, looks like we cant resolve the issue. What do you think? Regards, M |

HG has many UK users. With the limit choices of hosts in the UK, looking to the US is a good idea. However, because of the distance, access can be slow at times, due to traffic issues. Overall, I'd say you'd be happy, but with the 30 day guarentee, I'd say just do it and see.

I have recently paid for HostGator although I havn't got my account yet. I literaly mean recently within the last couple of hours. I come from the UK, I can't give you personal information about HostGator but I have done a lot of reaserch and found HawkHost and HostGator to be the best for my requirements and for being in the UK (if this counts as advertising on HawkHosts behalf just remove it, if not remove this). HostGators space and bandwidth won me over along with excently replys to my pre-sales questions.

I'm UK-based and aside from the current billing issue, I've been happy with Hostgator. I had an EU-based host previously and site load times were nowhere near as quick. It is definitely one of the better shared hosts.

I have no experience of any other paid-for hosting but chose HG after reading lots of reviews and am perfectly happy with them. With the money-back-offer you'd not lose anything by trying them out.

I am UK based and have used Host Gator for some time now for various different projects and I have been very happy with the service.
Also using a UK based company and servers does not always guarantee you a good service, I have use a few UK companies in the past and the service has left a lot to be desired to put it mildly. |
