Comprises a 4-story, 30,000 square foot building featuring high levels of security, monitoring and expanded infrastructure.

Host Gator, a provider of shared, dedicated and reseller hosting, announced today that is has completed the move to its new headquarters in Texas and launched a new company blog.

The new offices are located a few minutes from downtown Houston, where the company has purchased a 4-story, 30,000 square foot building for $2.4 million. This state-of-the art facility features high levels of security, monitoring and expanded infrastructure to support Host Gator's customer service operations. The new location already houses 100 employees, and has the capacity to accommodate the company's plans to eventually expand its headcount up to 300. To date the new headquarters is currently handling hundreds of phone calls, thousands of tickets, and about one thousand live chats a day.

"We are extremely pleased to announce this major milestone. Host Gator has been growing at a rapid rate in the last few years. We felt moving to a major metropolitan area was the best way to meet all our staffing and infrastructure needs. The new blog is not a promotional tool, but rather a way for us to reach out and communicate with our valued customers and anyone interested in hosting. The Internet has changed how news is distributed, with sites such as Digg.com empowering the community to determine what is considered newsworthy. We hope to use these alternative channels to broaden the reach of our communication efforts," said Brent Oxley, Chief Executive Officer of Host Gator.
