Honestly, I haven't made it past building a website. This is the least 'user-friendly' page builder I have ever used. (granted, I haven't used a lot)

I know what I'm doing
December 24, 2022

I know what I'm doing. I'm getting hit with too many tutorials that are more confusing to me than helpful. I just want my host to get out of my way so I can work.

I have the Pro Plan but so far I have not been able to get support to set up my lifestyle blog. I thought someone would be available when I called, but I had to leave my number for someone to get back to me.

Bluehost used to be my favorite host because of the customer service. Now, something has changed in the last 3 months because the wait time for help is unbelievable and even most recently my website was broken at the hands of "customer service." now I have to wait in line again to have someone fix what they broke.

Very difficult to setup
December 21, 2022

Very difficult to setup. Non-intuitive design and the edits are not working and causing error messages.

Honestly, the setup has been really frustrating. I purchased a domain with my hosting and my account was started with a temporary domain. Now the temp domain is everywhere every time I try to set things up with other websites and I don't know how to untangle it. I'm very frustrated.

I have bought a domain www.beautyattheburroe.co.uk from google but whenever I log in here, I only have the option to update http://box5243.temp.domains/~eautybi9, i have waited on your chat help thing for hours to try and work out how to change it but have had no answer. I have never created a website before and have no idea what i am doing and at this point i am just about ready to give up.
