Check your welcome email for the correct user name and password. If that password is not working, please contact HostGator via phone or live chat.
Password Reset: Before we reset your password, we may need to request some information to verify your identity. We apologize for the inconvenience this might cause.
Note: Changing your cPanel password will also update your main FTP account's password. Also, SiteStudio and Sitebuilder rely on your cPanel password to work correctly. If you change your cPanel password, SiteStudio and Sitebuilder will have to be reconfigured. In this case, please email sales@hostgator.com and request your Sitebuilder to be updated with your new password.
