I don't like thee user interface at all
December 17, 2022

I don't like thee user interface at all -- and I can't figure out how to get the domain's URL to display the Wordpress blog. Instead it shows an Admin login button

Terrible navigation for starters
December 17, 2022

Terrible navigation for starters. Everything is hard to read and understand. Not user friendly at all.

This company is deceptive
December 17, 2022

This company is deceptive - I thought I was purchasing a web building and hosting service from Word Press. I have no idea what happened or why I was charged like this.

There's a lot of flashing 'Get this now' icons, and it's a little overwhelming. I have some experience with WP, but the addition of the a number of plugins by default is pretty confusing. A lot to manage off the start.

I tried to purchase a domain name with the hosting package and it didn't work, contacted customer support via chat, and they solved the issue within 30 minutes. Now, however, I can't change my primary domain to the new 1 i have just purchased without again contacting customer support. Very clunky and unclear how to make these edits without contacting customer service which takes up at least 30 minutes.

I have had a lot of issues migrating a wordpress website into bluehost. This should be a fairly simple process, but there are no clear instructions.

I have called customer support numerous times and have been kept on hold for almost two hours, with no answer each time. I had tried to figure out the issue via chat, but the support techs have been unable to help me. There is no 24/7 support.

When I have finally successfully reached a support tech via phone, I have been told that I need to call wordpress to figure out the issue. This has been such a difficult and problematic process from the get go.

Nothing works. I have been on this 24 hours and talked to customer support that said the issue was from your site and it will be fixed in 2 hours.
Somehow it shows jibirsh for my site name
