Pricing
While HostGator offers several flashy introductory offers, it’s important to read the fine print. For instance, while its basic plan is advertised at $2.75 per month, that rate is only available if you pay for a full three-year term upfront, and is only available for the first term (it rises to $9.99 per month for the next three-year term). When considering the full-priced monthly rates, HostGator is on the higher end of the pricing spectrum.
