HOST GATOR THEY ARE ADVERTISING MY COMPETITION ON MY WEB SITE!... LOOK JSAUTOSUPPLY.COM, Internet
*Consumer Comment: This is what happens..
It is quite simple. Host Gator, after I let MY site and account go inactive due to not being complete. Check it out for yourself www.jsautosupply.com. Thats my domain that I purchased and Host Gator is clearly advertising "sponsored" automotive suppliers on there. I asked them to take it down, they said I had to make pay them to reactivate my account. And that it was Godaddy doing the advertising, even though there is the Host Gator logo in clear sight
They are profiting off of my domain without my permission. They will probably take it down after I post this, but I have saved so many screen shots that I can post to discredit any sort of lies that may follow.

This is what happens..

When you try to get something for nothing.
You are having this company host your site but not willing to pay for this hosting. The fact that your site isn't ready isn't their problem as they are still hosting it. Think of it in terms of your business. When someone buys an alternator from you, do you require them to pay for it when they get it, or do you let them pay for it only after they had the time to install it in their car?
You will also find that when you signed up for the hosting and domain you also agreed to allow them to put on sponsored advertising.
So the answer is simple, either pay up with them and get a simple "Coming Soon" page up, or move your domain to another company who will let you "park" it for free.
