HostGator:  Upgrade to VPS or Dedicated Server

Question:

Hi my website taken down by hostgator saying too much traffic for shared hosting now i want to know where should i go now for other shared hosting or VPS or dedicated servers or reseller i have no idea can anyone help me please

Answer:

If a hosting account continuously uses x% of the server’s resources on a shared account, which is not considered “normal use”, then yes, you’ll be suspended.  Just exactly how much traffic do you have?  A friend of mine had the exact same problem at HostGator and she went to VPS.  That’s why I’m curious.  I wonder what their threshold is.

HostGator has VPS and Dedicated hosting solutions.  Call customer support and upgrade your account.  You don’t need to move to another hosting company.  However, be prepared for sticker shock and much less space.  VPS and dedicated servers are not cheap.  Have them analyze your account and make a suggestion.  They’ll give you the hook-up.

HostGator Linux VPS Hosting

With full root access, you’re able to install advanced software and completely customize virtually anything as if your VPS were a dedicated server without the cost of one. For easy administration, cPanel is available.
