    Based on recent reviews and reports (as of 2026), common issues with BigRock hosting in India include migration glitches from HostGator (e.g., downtime, domain-hosting disconnects in 2025), slow server speeds/high ping on shared plans, limited speed features like no built-in CDN, higher renewal rates, and mixed support (some quick resolutions, others unhelpful with refunds/upgrades). Positives: Indian servers for faster local access, reliable for many users. Check Trustpilot for latest feedback before deciding.

    The worst web and email hosting provider is Hostgator. They suspend user accounts without warning. Their censorship policy is arbitrary allowing no clear definition of policy. Your opinion is not allowed on your own web site! #scam #HostGatorSux

    Hi @HostGator I am still in the chat and now for 23 minutes and not a single admin has come to see about my issue.

    Getting started with a website is actually quite easy. First step is to select a webhost & install your WordPress framework. I personally use and recommend @Hostgator because their customer support is phenomenal, ensuring you never wait hours to resolve tech problems.

    @seanrogers8 @HostGator No need to worry, this is not a hack. DNS tools can show SPF/DKIM/DMARC records more than once when zones or hostnames overlap or if the browser has some caching issues. If you reach out to support, we can review your DNS directly and make sure everything is set correctly.

    @HGSupport Why is it impossible to get anything escalated to people who can actually help?

    @HGSupport Has HostGator changed its password requirements? I've had problems logging in suddenly but error messages do not state any change to the policy despite an AI search suggesting something may have been done by March 2025.

    @ZennieAbraham62 @HostGator Thank you for the outreach. Support can assist with WP installs, login or admin access issues, installing, plugin and theme activation, plugin and theme errors conflicts and more. For other WP concerns beyond our scope try Pro Design Live subscriptions for personalized guidance.

    Do not use @hostgator. They censor. They suspend accounts without warning. You lose your money and data. Hostgator is a terrible company. #scam #scamalert #buyerbeware

    @HostGator deleted MANY of my posts. Not me. Hostgator. Now they won't restore them unless I pay them to do it. I've been a customer for 20 years or more. Never thought I would see the day that they would be so blatantly crooked. If you use host Gator, you have to pay for them to back up your blog or pay a third party. Or you have to copy everything on your site. BlueHost is cheaper, backs up every day, charges nothing extra and restores for no charge. What happened to hostgator?????

    @BigRock After Hostgator was migrated to Big Rock, service disruptions have become a daily affair during off peak hours. Support says process count exceeded 25, but doesn't give the exact cause of the downtime. Can you tell what's really happening?

    customer support and website designer to build HostGator’s employee training department while I was still doing website designer work also. We moved to Houston, TX when my buddy/boss bought a building in Houston, Tx. I ended up training over 1000 employees how to use their service and how to do chats, phone, and ticket customer service. I then taught several trainers on how to train employees and then went full time website and graphic designer for

    @lucasMnts But you need to ship, you are riddle with skill issues and don't know linux. Also hostgator is dying from your ****** PHP code.

    @DaveyJ_ @TheKingOfStank dude, especially with "managed" platforms... moved a clients domain over to hostgator and it was laughable. wouldn't let me update to my own name servers w/o going through support, and they had the PTR records all messed up so emails were getting flagged nonsense i tell you

    When looking to replace the dreadful @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp with a better company with better customer service, try out Bluehost SiteGround DreamHost HostGator HostPapa InMotion Hosting. You dont have to accept terrible customer service.
