What this page is
WebJi wrote this page. WebJi is not HostGator, and this is not their support desk. The names are used only to identify the products. Their phone numbers, chat lines and support email addresses are not published here.
An alternatives page that invents a HostGator price, or that ranks other brands by slogans, is not useful. The useful version is a list of the facts to copy off HostGator's own screen, and the order in which a site can be moved.
No price is printed, on purpose
A stable public price was not captured from this company's own page on 29 October 2026. A guessed rupee figure would be worse than a blank, so this page does not print one. On their pricing page, write down the introductory monthly price, the term that price requires, the renewal price, the currency, the tax line, and what is included. That note is the comparison.
The rows that make an alternative real
Fill these in from HostGator and from the other host before you move.
- Renewal price, not the intro, and the term the intro requires.
- Currency. A dollar intro beside an INR renewal is not yet a comparison.
- Sites, storage, mail, backups, SSL: included or ticked extra.
- The panel's export. If you see cPanel, use its backup. If you do not, use files and a database export.
- Whether the domain is registered at HostGator or only pointed there. Registration can stay.
WebJi's column, if you want it, is L-Basic at ₹300/month before 18% GST on the shared hosting page. It wins on price only when HostGator's renewal is higher after currency and tax.
Move order
Export while the HostGator account is still up. Restore on the new host. Click through the copy before anyone else can see it. Change DNS. Test mail. Cancel the old plan only after that. The checklist is on move a website off HostGator.
Rates printed on this website
These figures are WebJi's, printed on webji.in. They are not a price for any other company.
Shared hosting lists L-Basic at ₹300/month (₹3,000 for one year), L-Unlimited at ₹400/month (₹4,000) and L-Developer at ₹700/month (₹7,000), before 18% GST. That page also says renewal rates are printed before you pay. The shape of the price is a monthly rate and a one-year total, not a 36-month or 48-month introductory rate.
Domain registration lists indicative ranges, before 18% GST: .com registration ₹900–1,200/year and renewal ₹1,000–1,400/year; .in registration ₹500–800/year and renewal ₹700–1,000/year. A range is not a cart total. The amount at checkout is the price.
Where another company's renewal figure is lower than ₹300/month, that is what their page showed. Compare that renewal figure with L-Basic, then add tax on both sides. A lower first-term advertisement is a different number from the renewal.
What was read on 29 October 2026
A HostGator price fetch did not produce a table from HostGator's own plans. It was not used. WebJi's rates are from this website's shared hosting page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why won't you say what HostGator costs?
Because we did not get a clean read of HostGator's own pricing page on 29 October 2026. A number from a third-party article can be months out of date. Their page, on the day you look, is the source.
What should I write down from that page?
Plan name, intro price, term length, amount due today, renewal price, currency, tax, and the list of included mail and backups. Date it. That note is the whole comparison.
Is cPanel guaranteed on HostGator?
Not in this article. If your account shows cPanel, use its backup. If it shows something else, export files and the database. Look at the panel you have, not at a general reputation.
Can the domain stay at HostGator?
Yes, if they are the registrar. Change nameservers or the A record to the new host. Transfer the domain only if you also want the registration to move.
When is WebJi's ₹300 rate actually lower?
When HostGator's renewal, in INR after conversion and tax, is above ₹300 plus 18% GST. If their renewal is lower, theirs is the lower price. The intro month does not settle it.
Do you list HostGator phone support?
No. The export and the DNS change are done in the accounts you already have. This site is not HostGator's support desk.
