Hostgator is our top web host of 2008. You can setup your account with host gator here

This is the latest network status of hostgator web hosting posted by GatorNathon on 07 January 2009

Cpanel has pushed updates across all servers which during the updates caused webmail, cpanel, whm, and other non-critical services to be down.

Each server has gone through this update process tonight and we are still having some of the updates leak into the morning hours for those of you on the east coast. I assure you that these will all be completed shortly. Each server only takes about 30 minutes to update so if you try to login to cpanel and you get a 404 error or a blank white page do not be alarmed. All you will need to do is wait 30 minutes and try again.

We apologize for the troubles that this may cause for some users that were actively updating their site during this time period and that the updates ran so late into the morning.

If anyone is still experiencing issues after 30 minutes please feel free to contact us via chat, phones, or tickets.
