Today 19th of Oct 2010 when my team were trying to access a VPS account (that has been hosted on HostGator.com), it was not working, even FTP was not working.

We instantly ping HostGator.com and found it’s totally down :( Yaak!!

In order to confirm whether its really down we ping Hostgator and Google one by one and checked through Command Prompt, here is quick proof of Hostgator server down:

Hostgator server is down again on Oct 2010

IP address of HostGator that we found is 74.53.87.200 You can see from above Command Prompt that Google is replying properly while HostGator is completely down :(

We have already tried FatCow (Fatcow Sucks), Godaddy, and Bluehost but almost all of them are not very reliable hosting company.

Share your experience here with Hostgator.
