    To manage my network of sites and blogs, I would like to use a couple of alternatives to HostGator.

    Same kinds of requirements: shared hosting, low cost, instant activation, CPanel, fantastico scripts, webmail...

    - Dreamhost: No - Thank you
    - Lunarpages: No - Thank you
    - Servage: No - Thank you

    What else ?

    (thank you for your help)

    What is your budget? Depending on your budget look into liquidweb, downtownhost, and a2hosting. You also might want to consider a VPS if you have a large network of sites.

    Are you looking for "unlimited" disk space and bandwidth as well?

    I think Hostgator is the largest growing and you should remain there

    I assume that you need to share some current usages you have with Hostgator. What are they. I assume in this way that would be much easier to recommend you something

    Same budget/prices than HostGator (shared hosting)
    Adult content allowed would be a must (dating websites)

    Thank you for your input !

    Yep. Not so much a fan of BlueHost. Although the same kind of hosters.

    I want alternatives in case of downtimes, for IP purpose within my network of sites and I would like to have the bigger blogs on separate hosters.

    + I don't feel secure with all my sites on 1 hoster.

    I know what you mean... I have 20+ sites spread across three different hosting accounts. I would keep your current hostgator account and get another hosting account.

    I will check them and see if they meet my requirements (low cost, CPanel, adult content allowed)

    Thanks ;)
