The new system for building a site with wordpress is confusing. I feel like everything is bifurcated now and I keep having to login to a new platform. My email, domain, and website all seem to be held independent of one another.
SO far so good, we'll see after I ramp up activity his summer.
YouTube vids show 100's of free Themes available. I have 5, just 5. Why? This is my first website. I'm sure there is a lot to learn but if I'm missing themes now what else am I missing that I am yet unaware of?
Fairly good but some plugins don't work easily. Themes are nice but not enough flexibility.
Support is often too technical for me to understand.
I keep dealing with the same rerouting issue. Whenever I get a new domain it reroutes to my old domain / new domain despite me never specifying that it should do so. Then I have to deal with hours of technical support until they eventually give up and send it to escalated support. Then they take their time fixing it and there's no way to contact them except via email.
Love blue host--easy to navigate. Whenever I have had any issues, customer service is quick to help me find a solution.
Overall it is good, but occasionally slow and problematic.
Recently had a server issue... chat was quick, to the point and problem was solved quickly. Thank you!
I turned off my auto renew but you still billed me - again, for the 2nd year in a row. Can you please cancel this?
I have many issues with this site and service, including speed, outdated pages that still have not been fixed, and the last time I tried to update my blog, it would not stick. If it happens again now, I am going to find a new host.
Love your service customer support is excellent and very helpful
Editor is very difficult to use. Not intuitive at all, not easy to see how columns can be modified, etc.
Due to my own inexperience, I think I chose the wrong WordPress to install and I am finding it hard to change the template along. I'm sure it is great, I just do not yet know how to design things I want them.
Answer: NO - please do not go with Bluehost, it will save you a lot of hassle. They have the worst customer service and take your accounts offline just so you upgrade for more money even though the thresholds were not met. This means they are just running a scam by taking your websites offline and then offering the solution to get them back online by paying more money to them. My websites were down for 6 days and I've lost hundreds of dollars in income, have to pay my developers for all the work they did and NONE of it will be refunded by Bluehost. I migrated everything away from them and they do not even want to refund my sign-up costs. It is a total scam run but incapable and money-grabbing people whereas the CEO of Endurance group Jeff Fox made $10.000.000 in 2019 alone and the CEO of Bluehost Suhaib Zaheer $2.300.000. Be aware you do not get scammed by them, I've warned you. They are an evil company run by people with zero morals. I am going to report their theft to the FTC, BBB, and law enforcement. I will not go down without a fight and they will regret stealing from me and other affiliates as their reputation sinks in the toilet.
