HostGator

    Hello! You highly recommend HostGator, so when I needed to save $$$ I transferred my sites from GoDaddy to HostGator. It has been one painful process. I see that the reviews for HostGator are dropping since they enlisted tech support from India. Three simiple websites has taken me more than a month to transfer. Domain transfer dept and data migration dept do not work together on the process. Dozens of emails and phone calls later…and I’m still waiting for data migration on two of the sites. Just thought you should know. Since you recommended them so highly, they might listen if you conveyed this information to them. Painful process. Thanks so much! Becky Matson beckymatson.com

    Hi Becky,

    Sorry to hear you haven’t been satisfied with the WordPress hosting you’ve gotten from HostGator.

    You’ve reached support for the sites we host here at WordPress.com. These sites are different than the self-hosted WordPress sites which run the software downloaded from WordPress.org and installed onto a host such as HostGator. You’ll find a list of the differences at:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    Here at WordPress.com we recommend Bluehost and Pressable as official partners, you’ll find our recommended hosts at https://get.wp.com/hosting

    The WordPress.org community also has a set of recommended hosting companies at:

    I’m going to go ahead and close this thread but if you have any questions about WordPress.com, our plans, or service feel free to open a new thread.
