A quick summary of what you are going to read:Avoid buying any kind of hosting from Hostgator as much as possible. It’s a true scam. And the one telling you this is a Hostgator customer for over 20 years. Understand why…Five months ago, I purchased a hosting plan for 3 years. Since then, Hostgator ended their customer support chat, and no one responds to the emails sent to customer support. Hostgator’s hosting accounts are continuously being hacked, and at this point, without any customer support, I can’t even reinstall WordPress from scratch. All of my websites have simply stopped working due to incorrect permissions in the hosting’s root folders, a problem that should have been resolved by support.I have lost the money I paid for a non-functioning hosting, lost business opportunities because my sites have no solution due to the absence of customer support, and lost all trust in Hostgator.Solution: Change companies as soon as possible.Beware. Hostgator is simply a scam!
