American Red Cross And The Tour Du Rouge

The post American Red Cross And The Tour Du Rouge appeared first on HostGator Web Hosting Blog | Gator Crossing . We are happy to announce HostGator is celebrating our 5th year sponsoring the Tour du Rouge , benefiting the American Red Cross .  The Tour du Rouge is a 533 mile bicycle ride from Houston to New Orleans, spanning 6 days (May 4th – 9th, 2014). In recognition of not only the overall cause, but the dedication of the riders and volunteers that make this event possible, we wanted to do something a little bit extra this year.  Today only, all new hosting accounts are 50% off and new domains are starting at just $4 per year; on top of that, we are donating $1 to the American Red Cross for every new hosting package signed up for as part of this promotion. The American Red Cross provides a myriad of services, from disaster relief assistance to emergency contact for military personnel with their families, as well as community outreach programs such as CPR/First Aid training and swimming lessons.  Ultimately, what the Red Cross does is help people and save lives. The Tour du Rouge directly benefits the Red Cross chapters in the Gulf Coast, essentially the region directly through which the cyclists travel on their journey. What began in 2009 with sixty-three riders, has now grown to 200 riders and hundreds of additional volunteers.  This event is about real people helping real people overcome challenges and otherwise preparing individuals to act appropriately in emergency situations.  HostGator is so proud to be involved with such an event.  We invite you to become involved as well. Today you can get a great deal on a new hosting package and help us to help so many more people: sign up now ! web hosting Continue reading

A HostGator Harlem Shake

We had another blog post that we were planning on posting today, however late last night there was something in the air here at the HostGator Houston office.  There was an undeniable rhythm permeating throughout the building.  Deciding that we should seize the moment, we did the only reasonable thing that we could possibly do: we made a Harlem Shake video. It’s worth noting that this was created very much in a “flash mob” style; there was no premeditation and no one in the video knew that they were going to be in any video when they arrived at work last night.  All props were gathered from throughout the building and from employees’ cars out in the parking lot Continue reading
