What's up with Hostgladiator?
Doesn't work for about 8-10 hours already, no note was sent. Does anybody know what is going on?

We would like to inform you that HostGladiator.com will be closing its doors on Jan. 6, 2012. Please back-up all of your account data and make arrangements to have it moved to a new host by Jan. 6, 2012 as we will be taking all servers offline at that time. We recommend HostGator.com as a great host to move to.



We would like to thank you for your past great business and tell you how much we have enjoyed having you as a customer. Any open invoices you may have had have been canceled. Please don?t hesitate to submit a ticket if you have any questions.

I always saw them advertising here, feel bad for the people that started hosting with them since they didn't last long at all.

Yes I saw the thread and talks on GFY about them closing up shop. Let me know if you would like to discuss your hosting options.

How long was Host Gladiator around for? It wasn't that long was it? I'm no hosting business expert but if I was going to build a web hosting company I would make sure I had plenty of reserved funds and I wouldn't expect to turn a profit for at least 1 year.

Let me toss this option out there for former clients of this now dead company... 30% off for 6 months if you move to M3Server. We are in year "16" and not going anywhere :-) Just drop me a line and we will take care of you.

I go through on the 1st each month and make backups of new sites and then I cycle through the old sites and make new backups. It's just part of the work flow. Hard drives fail. I have seen it happen too many times.
