Addon Products

Are you looking to add services to your hosting plan? No, fret! We have created a list of product addons available: HostGator Addons. We do our best to keep software and program versions up-to-date. Our technical team regularly evaluates software updates and pushes updates across HostGator's servers after they are deemed secure and appropriate for HostGator's shared hosting environment.
