Gator Happenings

Well, it’s been quite a month here at HostGator. We had what we thought at first was a very cruel late April fools joke played on us. HostGator purchased a 102,000 Sqft building in Austin, TX as we have simply ran out of space here in our 4 story Houston headquarters. There are cubes on top of cubes it seems here and we are now finishing up construction on our 3rd, yes 3rd additional parking lot! We were set to close on the new Austin building April 20th, at that time we sent our money to the mortgage company and waited on our bank to send the remaining amount (4 Million USD). The mortgage company received OUR money, however our bank seemed to have sent 4 Million to an unknown source… April fools!?!? I’m proud to say we’ve since figured out “the case of the missing 4 million” and our office building in Austin is now secured. Blog post about the entire issue is in works, so stay tuned.

We need new gators!

As mentioned above, we’re growing so fast that we cannot hire enough people. You would think it would be simple, with so many people out there that use the Internet and build websites, to find qualified employees. We need our customers help! Currently we are hiring Phone/Chat front line agents and Linux Administrators. Check out our Jobs page and apply as we need to fill a new office and continue the growth at our Houston headquarters.

Please, we beg of you, come make some money with HostGator! http://www.hostgator.com/jobs.shtml .

We also have a referral program, so if you know someone, send them our way. Check out the payouts per referral:
