When you look around for the Hostgator coupon code, you will need to remember that this does not cover your domain name registration. Hostgator tends to use the more expansive domain names, which is the main disadvantage to opting for them. The minimum that you would be paying is around 15 dollars per year.

However, you could bypass this by opting to register your own domain and then going to the hosting company. Of course, this will mean that you will not get the first year of domain registration free, which is something that Hostgator is able to offer; this will be something that you need to think about carefully.

If you decide to take advantage of the 30-day money back guarantee, you will find that you still need to pay for the domain registration so buying your own first will probably be your best option. You will get to keep the domain name so that you can put it on whatever other hosting company that you want to.
