Who owns Hostgator?
Privately held and based in Houston, Texas, the company was founded in 2002 by current President and CEO Brent Oxley, who started the company from his dorm room at Florida Atlantic University. Since then, HostGator has grown from a small hosting company with just three servers into a world-leading and industry-recognized hosting provider with more than 7,000 servers under management.
In 2008, HostGator was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America. According to Inc. Magazine, HostGator is the 21st fastest-growing private company in America, the second fastest-growing private company in the “business services” sector, and the fastest-growing private company in Texas.
Since its acquisition by Endurance International, HostGator has suffered an increased incidence of server outages and downtime. Notably, on August 2, 2013, and December 31, 2013, Endurance International Group’s data center in Provo, Utah, experienced network outages that affected thousands of customers of Bluehost, HostGator, HostMonster, and JustHost.
