I can't create an account without purchasing a domain or hosting plan. I want to transfer in a domain to a new account, but I cannot because of this.

Easy to find products/services, but not what they are costing.

Not impressed
February 16, 2024

Not impressed. I've had numerous issues and my site has gone down multiple times, each time resulting in me having to contact support multiple times to try and get the issue sorted, even after being advised the issue was fixed. I never had issues with my previous host. My images are suddenly taking forever to upload. Another issue I never had with previous host..

I tried connecting my domain to Square, but it overrode my website, so I reverted changes, and since then my website has been down. Live Chat has seemed to identify the issue but so far it hasn't been picked.

The Site works well, However, there have been a number of Technical issues with the Hosting site which, as a complete beginner in building a Website cause me confusion and self doubt by thinking I was the one making mistakes and missing 'obvious' choices due to my lack of technological experience!

For some reason I can't log into my account - I get another account that has my details but I can't do anything with it - how does that work? When I spoke to someone on chat, THEY could access my account, yet I still can't. They were using the user ID which I was initially given, but that doesn't allow me to log in. So when I ask for my user ID, the email tells me that it's my blog domain. Am incredibly frustrated and would appreciate proper help.

The Worst Company Ever
February 13, 2024

I was recommended to bluehost by my developer about 7 years ago and it was a good company but they must have sold or changed management or values two years ago. This has been the worst experience ever. It just doesn't make sense how bad tech support became. I don't know, but it is as if they moved the company to a new country or new dimension. I don't know what happened. Last year - I could't get basic wordpress templates to work - it was amazing. Multiple templates from different vendors.
I am trying to leave the company and purchased a host gator account. My sites have been down three times since January first.

Stay Away

I am really struggling to understand how to use everything. It doesn't feel very user friendly to anyone new to creating their own website

I still do not have my site running
February 13, 2024

I still do not have my site running. I was led to believe a simple site was "easy" and could be up in 30 minutes. It has been weeks, and I am miserable.
