In this episode of iCantCU, I share the story of being put on HostGator's Blacklist. That's not the same one as the one Raymond Reddington is on. I wasn't notified, and it took support more than a day to tell me. I talk about chatting to support without using a screen reader, which is also challenging. Things might have been easier if I had Dembe to lend a hand. Once I migrate all my sites and clients' sites to SiteGround, I'll be done with HostGator after 19 years as a customer. Being in business has challenges whether blind or sighted.
