    Hey
    Now I'm using Godaddy. But the number of databases is limited. So i need to switch to another hosting type. I heard about http://www.hostgator.com .
    What do you think? Is http://www.hostgator.com good for me?
    I need to use many web application likes Joomla, Forums, Blogs, Mambo etc. :D

    I've had a HostGator shared hosting account for around 2 years and have never had a problem.

    HostGator is pretty good for shared hosting.

    Hostgator is probably the best shared hosting.
    I've been with them for more than a year, and never had any problems with them.

    The customer support and uptime have been great till now. :)

    I think this hosting type provides an unlimited amount of data bases, But in the Godaddy 25 is the amount. That's why i like that hosting type.

    How many db do you need? Do you want a shared hosting account, or a reseller account? Prefered location?

    Hostgator is better than Godaddy, but not the best. They were but not as of now. I have a reseller account with them and seen the sites grow on the server like hell over the last few years. Check for Medialayer. They are costly but worth the extra buxs.

    Hostgator is great you based on your OP I think you should also look into Hostmonster / Bluehost.

    Godaddy Sux....How about a dedicated server. ?

    The rest will limit you, when you start to get some serious traffic...read their terms, and policies...Your resource usage is limited......

    It sounds like you need a VPS plan to handle all those applications.

    Try bluehost or hostgator. They are truly reliable, specially bluehost, and database is really not an issue.
