I left HostGator last month. Mainly due to the hostgator error pages, that we don’t even have the option to opt out of, so we have to override with .htaccess (annoying).

So i left and went to NameCheap hosting, and it was horrible!
My site was so slow there. PHP is especially slow. There was a huge amount of lag between the time you click a link, to the time it loads, and i just couldnt stand it. The last week i was with them, the site just didnt load at all. They even moved my account to a different server in a different datacenter, and it still didnt work.

I had absolutely zero downtime with hostgator that i can remember. It’s fast, and i love it, besides the forced error page ads (i hope that give us the option for that eventually.)

But i love the speed, and stability of HostGator, and like i said, my only problem are the forced error page ads, and such, and i’ll have to get used to it til i find another host that is as fast, and stable as HostGator (which may be a looong while).

But im happy.

Also HostGator helped me out and waved the suspension/reactivation fee.
