Today started out like any other day, coffee and Twitter in the AM, then shower andTwitter some more; load up three children and go grocery shopping. Come home – ready to Twitter, and the phone rings. It’s some guy from HostGator, my web host, telling me he had emailed me, but he wanted to call me too. Apparently my site had a huge spike in traffic today and it was causing a ‘load on the CPU’ and he had to disable my site. Whoa!

Uh, ok – what does that mean? What do we do to fix it? Good thing he knows his stuff and had a suggestion for me. He reactivated my site, I applied the fix and I’m good to go. Crisis averted by this quick thinking guy who, in my opinion, went above and beyond the call of duty – at least any duty call I’ve experienced with any other company’s customer service personnel.

Now, this may not sound like a huge deal to many of you; but I ask you – how many of you think your web host would call you on the phone to discuss a problem with your site? Not many. Most would disable the site, possibly send an email and would wait for you to contact them to resolve the problem. Shoot, with most web hosts, you can’t even get a hold of a real-live person if you wanted to!

So, I’m sure you’re chomping at the bit to get yourself some of this awesome hosting. Well you can, but first you need to know that not only is HostGator awesome, they also have some of the best hosting packages on the planet making them not only awesome, but a cheap host too! How cheap? Like you can host unlimited domains, unlimited bandwidth and bunches more, for only one low price of $7.95 per month! Yep, multiple domain names under one account for one price of $7.95 per month.  Yeah, that kinda cheap!

I originally chose HostGator, as they ranked as one of the top 10 hosting companies. I use them to host my business clients as well.  Every time I have a question or any issue at all, they are extremely quick to reply to my support tickets. I have to say, they have not let me down in their uptime, overall performance or their customer service.

So go right now and get your own inexpensive hosting package with HostGator.  You won’t be sorry.
