The other day I got an email from my favorite web hosting company Hostgator. The Updates to Hostgator hoary just keeps getting it better. I think they have gone far and beyond from just being an awesome hosting company. They have added on PCI Compliance for a year within shared and reseller hosting accounts. I personally think this is great for anyone who is building their own online store.

If that is not enough they are also adding on VPS servers which are a good idea for expanding their user base right now they have around Domains Hosted: 2,358,406. I think by next year Hostgator will have over 3million domains hosted with them & continue to grow. If you’re not with Hostgator or with some other hosting company I think you should take up Hostgator’s offer they will transfer your account to their servers free of charge can’t beat that so what are you waiting for? Sign Up With Hostgator!

Below in the quotes is from the Hostgator news letter email

PCI Compliance

HostGator follows PCI compliance standards to ensure that our customers’ data and information is safe and secure. More and more merchant accounts and payment gateways are requiring that e-commerce websites become PCI compliant in order to accept credit cards. We recently made a deal with McAfee Secure to give all of our shared (Hatchling, Baby, Business) hosting accounts free PCI scans for an entire year.

You can take advantage of this by logging into your control panel, and clicking “Account Addons” under the HostGator Links section. From there, just click the “Free PCI Scan” link to submit your site’s information.

VPS Servers

Many of our customers have been requesting VPS, and we’re happy to announce that it’s right around the corner. If you are interested in VPS, or want to know what to know what in the world it is, check our VPS forum thread.”
