Host Gator offers 24/7/365 phone support, 99.9% uptime, and have a 30 day money back guarantee. Your site will be on a top-of-the-line Dual Xeon server that can provide instant backups of your site (this is available via the control panel). The cPanel control panel is one of the best in the industry, and they have over 52 scripts that can be installed with a click of the mouse.
I just wanted to say that Hostgator is by far the best Host I have ever had, and I've had many. I've never had the time to get in here and write a review about Hostgator but always wanted to and so now, here I am. I've used a lot of other Host but none has compared to Hostgator's service. Their staff is incredible and VERY helpful, I have never had a uncomfortable experience with them. If you are looking to find a host that has a "NO BS" policy, you will be VERY pleased with them. Their servers are dependable, their integrity non-surpassed and the amount of true bandwidth and resources they allow is unfound in the industry today. Thanks Hostgator for being a great provider and most importantly delivering on all of your promises.

Time with host at time of review: 2-4 months
I'm coming up on my 6th month anniversary with hostgator and wanted to share my experiences.
Some info about my site:
domain > nfodump.com use > downloads of large (100mb+) dj mixes in mp3 format. there is also a small coppermine gallery with the 'img' (for posting to msg boards) plug-in. i use about 19gb of disk space and push around 100gb/mo of files.
Review:
uptime and speed > excellent. my uptime for the 6 month period is 99.96%. according to domaintools.com there are 700-some other domains (i realize this isn't end-all be-all accurate) so either i've totally lucked out or the machine i am on runs very efficiently.
support > because this site is pretty basic, i have not had a need for hostgator's support. i have been with them one other time in the past and at that time (approx 1 year ago), their ticket response time was approx. 30 minutes.
pricing > i pay 9.95/mo for 100gb of space and 1,000 gb of bandwidth. while i will never come even remotely close to reaching that, it's nice to know that it is (hopefully) there.
overall > hostgator gets a 5 (out of 5) in my book. they have been good to me with the service they provide, have met my expectations and live up to what they offer on their site.
