My website is virused from many days. And they did not do anything to protect the ewbsite. Even if I hire developers they cleaned the website then again virus come back. And I'm not able to do scan for the website. I have to ask bluehost every time. Worst experience with this hosting. Totaly worst.
Too much down time for my size, everything is behind a paywall, including items that should be free when i renew!
Too many steps involved in navigating from one page to the next when editing.
Page load speeds seem to be slower than I would have expected from such a 'fast' host
I have been pleasantly surprised how easy it has been to create and edit the website through Blue host
My website is down since last 36 hours and I am struggling to get the support. I tried to contact Bluehost customer team and they asked to contact Codeguard team. In code guard contact form, it is mention to contact Bluehost.Nobody cares as I have already paid my money and I am worrying about my customer experience for last 36 hours.
While an initial error was ours (incorrectly entered email) this has still not been rectified. Access to our account has been consistently difficult despite contacting customer services more than once. Word Press is clunky and not intuitive. Unfortunately, we haven't had the best experience and would not at this stage recommend Bluehost or Word Press.
I am no longer able to edit my existing galleries on my various web pages. I entered the Chat with one of your associates and was told the permissions needed to be changed and they changed them. This didn't solve my issue so I am now having to add individual blocks per image rather than adding to a gallery of many images, just to keep my site updated for now. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Staff support was quick and helpful. Thanks always.
The first week using my website there was so many problems
Cannot get website live and connected to domain. Very difficult to navigate and get help.
In over two years, I have not been two weeks straight where I can appropriately access my website or make changes without having to call customer support and wait days for a resolution.
I'm spending too much time with credit and rebills. It's like bluehost has become absolutely CORRUPT!
Websites constantly go down with no explanation. Service representatives are mediocre.
I'm just trying to update the payment method. I get so much spam claiming to be from you that I know it will take forever to figure out how to do that and now you want my feedback before I've even had a chance to try! Back off!
I'm not expert but your services seem pretty easy and customer service is nice.
Having problems with several domains. Tech support this weekend was horrible. I have two sites down and am seriously wondering if I should be considering a different host.
Totally hopeless in either explaining or resolving my issue at 3rd time of trying. Surely it would be easier to employ human beings who can speak on the phone. It would certainly make you alot more popular with your customers
New platform? No way to stay signed in on my private device? Only 4 stars sorry
The new user experience is very confusing and unhelpful and seems to be aimed more at making sales than at providing an efficient way for the user to navigate.
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.
