I have to use GoDaddy some for a client's site, and really I just don't find it user-friendly. There are ads all over the place in there, which makes me think they care about the money more than you.

You reckon?

I can advice who not to use - iPage. The problems never end and the customer support is second to all.
Seems like you need a VPS anyways so why not stick with HG and avoid the nameserver hassle? Especially if you have so many domains.

I don't suggest you use Godaddy. If you have hosting + domain with them, they will disable your HOSTING ACCOUNT AND DOMAIN. Then, they request $199 activation fee.

Google "Godaddy $199" "Godaddy scam", etc.

of course you will take too much resources, and hosting company will do the same action for shared plans.

get VPS or dedicated plan.

I have a VPS on Go Daddy and have not had the best experience with them. I would suggest going somewhere else. I will be as soon as my 1 year plan is up.

Did HostGator give you any kind of warning? I'm trying to do something similar...

How many wordpress blogs did you have going?

I've had a good experience using HostGator.

However, there is no way I'd host with GoDaddy...that's like putting all your eggs in one basket.

I started getting high traffic on about 8 of my hosted sites with hostgator and I got worried that there would be a problem. I ended up getting Reseller account basic and I make enough to break even on the hosting by hosting and all my projects run on the side. Its a nice little setup.
