Answer: You are not alone. Free hosting will most probably never be the best hosting for most people. Web hosting is the heart of your business and can mean the life or death to your business.

Before we answer your question, let us review the 7 factors to look for in a good web hosting. An excellent hosting:

  1. does not suspend accounts as easily,
  2. gives more-than-enough webspace,
  3. offers no limit on bandwidth,
  4. gives unlimited add-on domains,
  5. has easy Site Builder,
  6. has Fantastico and QuickInstall to quickly install apps like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, OSCommerce, ZenCart and more
  7. can be easily upgraded to VPS or one of their best dedicated server plans if and when your business require.

To answer your question, 92% of Webmasters recommended to try Hostgator. If you are building your first website and needs a hosting plan, experts usually highly recommend going with Hostgator because they are the best cheap cpanel hosting around.

Who Should Not Try Hostgator

To be honest, no web hosting service is perfect. Drawback of Hostgator includes:

  1. No free domain name – but you can easily get a domain name from the best domain registrar such as Godaddy or Namecheap for $10 or less. Would you agree that a website is not complete without a domain name?
  2. You need to pay full price after your first invoice – well, they need to make money too and all the support and great service do come with a cost

  1. Set up sending the forward email in the cPanel to your GMail address or try directly using it in the PHP file:

    Recommend using a server-side script language if your web site allows it. Otherwise, you will have to use a client-side dependent "mailto:" action to get the form info sent to you.

    Your current hosting package or service MUST allow SMTP ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Mail_Transfer_Protocol ) to work. Otherwise, no email can be sent.
