you'd better be sure that your script works perfectly, cuz if there's a glitch and it starts acting funny at some point they jump you right away and froze your account for using up too much cpu.

also you better make sure your site is small to medium, cuz if God forbid you grow too big and get too many concurrent connections, you get suspended and asked to either move to semi-dedicated plan or to another company - ofc, if you're lucky they'll give you week to do it

seems like too many connections spoil it for the other kids on the box. to me, sounds like overselling does too.

I say steer clear of host gator's virtual plans. I understand their reseller packages are pretty good, and dedicated servers are supposed to be great also, but in what virtual is concerned they're pretty quick to freeze accounts as soon as they don't like something.

I was told by somebody in Hostgator that traffic trading is not allowed. Is it true?? I am interested in using their service as well but I need traffic trading, so I am reconsidering...

Please advice, I wish the info I received is wrong.....
