Host Gator, a leading provider of shared, dedicated and reseller web hosting, today announced significant upgrades for its shared and reseller hosting plans, available to new and existing customers.

Host Gator's shared hosting plans are priced at $6.95, $9.95 and $14.95 per month. They now come with 50GB, 100GB and 200GB of disk space, and 200GB, 1,000GB and 2,000GB of bandwidth, respectively.

"We are delighted to be able to offer our customers this increased capacity," said Brent Oxley, President and Founder of Host Gator. "Copious amounts of disk space and bandwidth are a basic hosting need and we make sure our customers have more than enough at their immediate disposal. It's just part of our mission to give our customers everything they need to succeed and prosper online."

Host Gator also recently added SSH (Secure Socket) capabilities with all web hosting plans. The technology enables customers to establish secure connections between local and remote computers.

Host Gator recently moved its headquarters to Houston, Texas, from Boca Raton, Florida, as part of a company-wide expansion, which also includes a new Canadian office in Toronto. The company has various new features planned for the coming year, including the addition of Ruby on Rails, an open source framework for building database-driven web applications.

"Host Gator continues to be committed to adding as many features with its web hosting services as possible," said Oxley. "We plan to roll out several new features throughout the next year, further validating Host Gator as the hosting provider that delivers the most bang for the buck."
