I have nothing to but good things to say about BlueHost. I'm beyond happy. Whenever I had issues, they were resolved quickly. They even helped me fix things that I broke accidentally. Can't send them enough praise. Thank you!
So far so good. Only one problem I've had so far. The bluehost website builder wasn't working with a very important podcast plugin and so I had to uninstall the website builder and install a different one. This has cost me a lot of time and a little frustration.
Calling tech support seems to have equal probability of fixing the problem or making it worse.
I decided to implement the two step verification process, which worked well most of the time. Recently, the system was not allowing me to enter the verification code once I received it. After working with an agent, we changed the settings to eliminate the two-step process and go back to the single verification. This works well for me.
The login screen is poorly done. The chat starts blaring off this obnoxious bell every time I log in. To get into my account I have to go through an upsell screen with a "no thanks" buried at the bottom in small type. This is not a customer focused interface in my opinion and I am looking for alternatives.
I have an unresolved ticket I've been waiting to hear on. S-*******. I have no idea what the status is and cannot tell anything from your site.
I don't like being redirected to the new login page.
It's my first time using a hosting platform, but I've been happy.
I like the website. It was more difficult than I was prepared for. I subscribed to Blue Sky and then I had all the help I needed to mover forward.
Easy to figure out, however, the dashboard is too confusing. I would like there to be a dashboard tour available for the wordpress dashboard.
Logging into my website sucks now. Very difficult.
The hosting platform (cPanel, etc.) is fine, but tech support is a problem. I spent more than a week on the chat almost every day before I called and got someone who actually knew how to fix my issue. Several times, immediately after I typed a message, the tech said they hadn't heard from me for a while and closed the chat. It's been a very, very frustrating process to get one of my sites back online.
People tell you to choose Bluehost. Everyone says you're the best. But, I am not experienced enough to really use your service, I guess. I've paid for hosting, paid for a theme, nothing works. It's been hectic and crazy just getting my site to work, and because of issues, I'm moving to another service because I can actually make the front end there.
You've changed the log in screen again so now I have to remember my username instead of google password. And before I can get into my wordpress site, I have to click off your advertising page. There's plenty of space to put advertising without requiring an extra click. I don't understand why I react so strongly each time I see the ad, but each instance makes me think BlueHost doesn't respect their customers time
Great support overall. But web editor quite restrictive
Bluehost has been awesome
Wordpress... meh... the updates are crushing me. Starts the entire build process over again.
I had an issue and legal wouldn't work with tech. They were a pain in butt. I finally had to transfer my site away from bluehost to fix the issue.
Server is very much slow, some time site take too much time to load. Also non professional support members.
I have not been very pleased. So many phone calls and problems remain. Now blue host and WP aren't communicating.
Terrible experience. I am actively looking for a new host because my websites are consistently down.
Too many click to reach email admin. However it improves.
For the past few years, I have received nothing new and am constantly hounded when I log in to buy some product no one has ever needed, some of them for features already included for free. It's constantly annoying. Also, things have become slower and seemingly there's less accountability on your end. It makes me wish for time to go backward to when I had more confidence in you as a company.
I'd like more tutorials for users to get more out of the site.
