Hostmonster Vs Hostgator

Both Hostmonster and Hostgator are two of the fastest frowing hosting companies. There is hardly anything to choose between the two. Both offers excellent uptime, fast response to the support tickets and the support technicians are extremely always willing to walk that extra mile for you. On the plus side, hostmonster offers more add on domains and resources(bandwidth/storage) for the same price. If you have more domains to host, you might find hostmonster a better option.

To be fair with Hostgator, they do not charge any setup fee for a monthly contract. So if you prefer a monthly contract, you might find hostgator a better option.

The choice is much easier. Startlogic has mixed review when it comes to support and uptime. Hostmonster rates a LOT better in both areas. Also, hostmonster uses cPanel which is prefered over vDeck used by startlogic.

Unless you really have a reason to hate cpanel, hostmonster is a lot better option.

For features, support etc. hostmoster is a MUCH better option. Uptime is also lot better for hostmonster compared to godaddy.
