host gator can host my website and register my domain.. should i do that? why or why not?

I recommend namecheap, it's more friendly. You usually don't want to use the same company for hosting and your domain name.. that gives them too much power.

Avoid putting all your eggs in one basket.

You run your site, no-one else.
