I recommend them very highly. Prior to going with them I had problems with some other webhosts and I can tell you unless Hostgator radically changes, I'll be sticking with them... period! I think in the entire time I've been with them I've had one downtime for a short period of time, about 15 minutes and that was it.

I simply had 2 copies of the blog running - one on each host and added hostgator DNS servers to my registrar. Once I verified that changes started to propagate and I was able to resolve my domain name via hostgator servers and my blog functions properly I pulled the plug on Site5. It is sad when service I used to love for the quality dramatically goes down in quality of support and systems stability. I've had issues with them where my sites went down for over 12 hours and only me (a customer) opening ticket with their support promoted action on their admin's part. Problem is I still have 3 sites to move from them by mid January as they will not be getting repeat customer from me ... Alex Change over is really fairly simple.

Stumbled on to your blog via Lorelle's. I am very happy having read this post and the comments associated with it. You see just yesterday I signed up with hostgator myself after having gotten tired of the startlogic changeover and customer "service." I have enlisted the help of others to make the change (as I'm not computer literate), and you know how change can effect folks. I'm so glad I happened upon this article as it calms me some.

Site5 used to have similar service but since they decided to move and merged with some company - it went down the drain, in my opinion. As far as move - just relocate the blog and for a while have 4 DNS servers: 2 pointing to old host and 2 to new. Once new blog verified that it works properly - pull the plug on old host :) John,
