In 2002, Brent Oxley was a 19 year-old college student working with high-traffic Web sites when he became frustrated with the hosting companies who provided unstable service, poor support and scams that ripped off inexperienced customers.

Supported by The Planet's Tier One datacenter on which Hostgator has come to rely on for safe, secure and stable service since its inception, Hostgator continues to experience tremendous growth.

"The choice to utilize The Planet as our exclusive server and connectivity provider was an easy decision. The Planet is known as an industry leader. They go the extra mile to ensure 100 percent customer satisfaction and we've never been disappointed," said Oxley, president and founder of Hostgator. "The Planet has no equal.

Oxley began his business with a steadfast resolve to keep customer service at the heart of Hostgator. Soon after he founded the company in his dorm room, Hostgator grew so quickly that Oxley made the decision to leave school and concentrate on his business full time.

Hostgator serves a critical role in the marketplace, offering more management on dedicated servers with a focus on reseller hosting for people interested in starting a Web hosting business, but have no idea how to begin.

"Brent Oxley is a fantastic partner. It is truly great when companies come together that are so fully aligned by vision. Hostgator stakes everything on its reputation of customer service, as does The Planet," said Julia Estes, The Planet's vice president of sales and marketing.
