I have only had this hosting site a few days and there was a severe network outage a few days in. I could not log into my site or work on it. Does not bode well for future

This isn't an easy interface to use for someone unfamiliar with website design. Is difficult to develop. Support is not 24/7. Support was not even able to verify whether my account was active.

I have had my new site for one day and have not been able to set anything up. As I had a log in error, with Bluehost, then after they say that is resolved I have a WordPress error when I'm trying to pick and set up my theme and plugins.
It's just very frustrating since I'm so new and all it's not giving me a whole lot of confidence, having so many issues already, just in set up.

I cannot get my Wordpress site transferred over. I was told before I paid that I would be assisted in doing so. I have chatted with more than one person, but they just send me to the help article - that isn't working. I've spent hours Googling how to transfer it but nothing is working.

If Blue Host hired a very experienced COO, your company could dominate the market. You have good people who want to do well. You just don't know how to conduct basic, long proven operations processes. I want you to realize the growth that is upon you. I spoke to another customer who called me thinking I was your Migration team. We are both experiencing the same problem - Blue Host has repeatedly failed for 3 - 8 weeks to move our sites to your platform.

The website is not very intuitive and all I want to do is create a site for my new school. I am not a web designer, but have used other sites like WIX, Squarespace, and Google Sites with more ease.

This website has caused me nothing but trouble so far, and after hearing such great reviews, I am very disappointed so far. My latest problem now is not being able to access Word Press to work on my website.

I just set up my new domain through blue host using the WordPress software. Unfortunately now I am unable to access my domain through wordpress due to a SSL issue. I have no experience with SSL configuration so am not sure how to resolve this issue.
