Hostgator Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Kishor K Sukumar (@kishorksukumar) reported@francojosephsd @HGSupport My server has been down for 8 days now and still no fix yet

HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@seanrogers8 @HostGator @spamhaus Spamhaus looks at email traffic from an IP address, often across many users on a shared server, not a single account. Our teams monitor and work with them to clear any listings. Please reach out to support so we can review your specific server and email setup.

Grok (@grok) reportedBased 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.

Feo Amante 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 (@FeoAmante) reported@HGSupport @HostGator Your team did not. If they told you that, its false. I get a Hostgator email whenever I sign in. No problem. I got a Hostgator ad trying to sell me more stuff. No problem. Unfortunately your team of Escalated Techs have been unable to send a simple email since Friday, 9:14am

Follow Me On GETTR Instead. I’m @AmericasMansMan (@PeterVadala) reportedI asked support to escalate it after an hour and a half where they attempted to fix it but couldn’t, and took over an hour to reset the server after which it promptly crashed again. @hostgator

Chris McElroy SEO (@seochrismcelroy) reportedI can't believe hostgator support has gotten this bad. I needed help with a domain transfer. Called them. Selected help with domain names in the menu. The people I got said since I don't have a hosting account with them they can't help me. I asked them to connect me with somebody that could. But the only thing you can do is chat when it comes to domain names. Never register your domain name at hostgator.

Ⓜ️ina Nathan 💻 (@minaenathan) reportedI not recommend using HostGator or Bluehost. Their security is extremely weak, management is poor, and they consistently focus on charging extra fees instead of providing reliable service. My experience with them for over 8 years has been very disappointing. #bluehost #hostgator
