My log-ins are not working correctly between Wordpress and Bluehost. Every time I try to manage my site it's a different page for customization.

I'm having a difficult time building a website and unless I pay another 500$ I can't get any help? Seems I made a mistake chosing this. I'm sure you know I don't know what lots of this means, to force me to pay but that's not going to be accomplished. I will however figure it out without being strong armed. But I have to ask are you really hurting that bad for money that even after I've paid almost 300$ it's not enough? Smh. I'm just not familiar with this but I will be eventually without having to pay an outrageous amount of money. I'm trying to start a small business. I've already invested lots of someone else's money because they believe in my abilities as do I but the lack of clarity seems intentional and that's incredibly disappointing.

Struggling to figure out how to create a basic webpage. Wordpress is definitely not as intuitive as others I've used in the past.

For first time users the amount of additional plug in information and extra costs is not really upfront

Very confusing

Very confusing. I did web pages in WIX in one evening but I can't understand this logic at all.

So frustrating.

Terrible result of using a temporary url. You need to provide full disclosure on what it means and the future actions it may require. Very deceptive.

You have a 30-day money back guarantee but have no way to cancel on the website. Calling in I just get a runaround and then a song and dance about how the system won't allow a full refund even though it is within 30 days. Will be sure to tell others who ask me that I would run from your company.
