Two ways to get a HostGator Free Trial

1. Not Recommended -

   Using HostGator’s Free Month Coupon

   • This will save you up to $12 on your first bill (not $12 off every month)
   • If you choose to pay by the month during registration, you'll have to start paying full price after the first month
   • Paying by the month usually costs a lot more than prepaying for multiple months up front
   • Not recommended because you can usually save a lot more with the 2nd method
2. Best Option -

   Using HostGator's 45 Day Money Back Guarantee + A Percentage-based Coupon

   • The latest HostGator coupons are available at the previous link.
   • You can get a full refund for up to 45 days, and even after 45 days, you can still get a refund for any unused months
   • The percentage-based discount will save you on every month you pay for at signup (up to 3 years)
   • If you're willing to prepay for multiple months up front, you can save a lot of money with this method

Alright, that should give you a pretty good overview of both of the methods. In the rest of this article, we'll explain in detail why we recommend using the money back guarantee method for getting a free trial at HostGator.

Getting a HostGator Free Trial using a percentage-based coupon + 45 Day Money Back Guarantee

The latest HostGator coupon codes are available at the previous link.

HostGator has a 45 day money back guarantee for almost all of their web hosting plans, and after 45 days, you can still get a refund for any future months that you've already paid for. Pretty much everything except dedicated servers is covered. Since you can cancel at any time during the first 45 days and get a full refund, this is a great way to give HostGator a try without a lot of risk.

We recommend this method for the following reasons:

1. Gives you the option of prepaying for multiple months up front, which can save you a lot of money

   - With the other method (HostGator's free month coupon), you'll have to pay by the month to get started without any money up front. However, using the 45 day guarantee, you can prepay for up to 3 years in some cases (just change your Billing Cycle during registration). This can drastically lower your monthly hosting expenses because HostGator offers large discounts for the longer billing cycles.
2. You don't need a coupon to get the money back guarantee, so you can use whatever coupon will save you the most money

3. You can lock in discounts for up to 3 years

   - If you use a percentage-based coupon, it can save you for every month that you prepay for during signup, which is up to 3 years for most plans.

4. It’s easy to cancel online, so you shouldn’t have a problem getting a refund

   - HostGator has an A+ Better Business Bureau rating, and they're also well known for their excellent customer service, so you shouldn't have a problem getting a refund if you decide to cancel.

Our Recommendation for Saving the Most Money at HostGator

You'll usually save the most by going with the money back guarantee method of getting a free trial, prepaying for as many months as you're able to, and locking in one of HostGator's percentage-based coupons, which will save you for every month that you pay for during checkout.
