Choose a hosting plan
Start by choosing the HostGator hosting product that fits the website. The account provides the hosting environment and the tools used to manage it.
Connect your domain
Your domain needs to point to the hosting environment. You can use a domain registered through the same company or connect one registered elsewhere.
Publish or migrate the website
Build a new site in the account or move an existing site. After the site is live, test HTTPS, pages, forms, media, and any other functions that matter to the website.

How we approach hosting recommendations
We focus on the website, the hosting plan, and the tradeoffs that matter to the buyer. Hosting products and prices can change, so confirm current commercial details with the provider before purchasing.
