Got questions?
Well, we've got answers.

  • What is cloud hosting, anyway?

    Cloud hosting pools resources from multiple virtual server instances of physical servers. Cloud hosting is noted for its reliability, scalability, and flexibility — making it ideal for businesses and websites that need to maintain fast load times, despite surges in traffic from sales or promotions.

  • Why choose cloud hosting with HostGator?

    Web pros and businesses have been trusting us with their websites since the Jurassic times, aka 2002. We've got everything you need in one place — domains, hosting, website builder tools, and more. All of our plans come with unlimited email addresses, bandwidth, and storage. Plus, we offer free site transfers. Check out our reviews to see why folks think we're the best web host around!

  • How secure is cloud hosting?

    Cloud hosting automatically distributes three mirrored copies of your data across multiple devices to ensure safety and redundancy. Here at HostGator, we also employ a number of security measures to protect our servers and customers' websites. Our data centers are built using top-of-the-line technology, and servers are monitored 24/7 in a highly secure environment.

  • How reliable is cloud hosting?

    Because you're virtually using the resources of multiple servers, cloud hosting safeguards you from an individually overwhelmed, or damaged, physical server. If a server experiences any hardware issue or gets overloaded with resource requests, our automatic failover process seamlessly switches you to another server.

  • Why cloud vs. shared web hosting?

    The major benefit cloud hosting offers over shared hosting is that it allows you to utilize the resources of multiple servers, rather than being limited to a single server. With cloud hosting, you can monitor and allocate additional resources easily, allowing for unlimited expansion and growth. You have total control over your usage, with no surprises.
