    Any host that offers unlimited features gets a big NO from me.

    Hostgator has great affiliate program and very good marketers. Marketing is very important in this extremely competitive niche. So that's no wonder they have a lot of clients.

    I use hostmonster on their cheapest plan. So far only one problem and that was an error adding another domain: I sent them a message and it was fixed within 5 mins.

    Well those cheap shared packages might seem great when you look at them but they suspend accounts easily if you get a lot of traffic in a short period. For example, if you reach on digg/reddit/mixx frontpage and your website is hosted on a shared account at HostGator they'll suspend your account for too much memory usage. Their reseller and dedicated packages work really well and don't get suspended and the affiliate system is really great. I'd say it's the best company i've worked with, but there are surely better hosting companies out there with good features for premium clients.

    Wow, thats a real bargain.
    HG is very good for medium sites. I have one baby account that runs steadily at about 4000 unique visitors per day, 12000 page views a day.

    I used to use HostGator for my arcade, but I had some problems with their support team and prematurely canceled my account.

    I use Hostgator also. I heard good things about their support and it's true... LiveChat 24/hrs a day is REALLY useful, particularly when you live on the other side of the world and can't really afford to have websites down for long periods of time.

    I never use hostgator but i am planning in near future i will go for hostgator.

    Now they are offering unlimited space, bandwidth in all shared hosting plan, which no other hosting company is offering.
