    I was gonna go with Bluehost but saw many shaky reviews. Should I go with HostGator or any others instead?

    What are you planning on hosting? Any specific server requirements?

    You have to research your requirements thoroughly.
    Only then will you know which host best fits your needs.
    They each have their strong points.

    any host that is a extremelly well known is going to have good and bad reviews, it seems that you have done half the battle reading reviews, maybe post around in the forums to see if someone has actually used their service and what their thoughts were of it.
