Do not waste your time. No representative has any idea about this companies policy. Reps lie to get you signed up, or don't know what's true, and when you question it you get different answers depending on who you talk too. I have screen shots of a conversation stating what my price would be for certain amount of months. That price changed after 2 months. When asked I told I was charged correctly and I can't get any type of refund, for anything, because it's been longer then 3 days since the purchase lol. Seriously, please don't waste your time. There are plenty of reputable website building companies that offer good customer
Service and care about providing a good customer experience. This happened to me twice. Once when I signed up and once when I was convinced to sign
Back up(guaranteeing my price). I should've known better the second time but I won't make the same mistake a 3rd time.

Terrible Experience

Previous review

Un real. This has been the most
Unprofessional experience I've had with a company.

Customer service reps have 0 knowledge on how to
Solve issues. You get a different answer every-time you talk to a rep. I've had this service 2 months and the bill went from being $4.95/month for 12 months, then renewing at $11.99(which renewed at $16.95 NOT $11.99) and I was told that was the price from the start. Your company updated pricing in January yet some how your website still reflects a different price. You guys are a website building company and can't even adjust your own companies website? That should've been a red flag for me from the start. No it's going up to $19.99/ month? And this is for your basic package? Unreal. You guys have wasted my time and my hard earned money. Absolutely disgusting. The only positive thing was being able to build my website. Trying to set up the SSL Certificate and the IP address took over a week and a half. Every time I spoke with someone I would get different answers or results which kept me spinning in circles. Eventually a knowledgeable rep came on and could help, but a lot of wasted time. Could be a good company but has a lot of important things to clean up.

Dave C is OUTSTANDING!
November 16, 2022

Frist class professional. Extremely knowledgeable, pleasant, who's willing to go the extra mile to accomplish my needs, desired expectations and goals.

I would ask, may I work with him only moving forward? I'm picky and he is the 'it' factor. Take care of this man as he more than represents Web.com but yet a human being with outstanding character and integrity.

Randy from web.com
January 18, 2017

Today Randy from web.com helped me to resolve two separate issues.
I found him to be professional, courteous and highly effective in his position.
Our call was dropped before i could take the web.com customer survey.
Sorry about that Randy., i hope that this has some value.
You are a true asset to your employer.

Thanks., Bruno Sblano.

I had a very nice experience speaking with my web consultant. He was knowledgeable and professional and asked me all the right marketing questions. Marketing has never been my strong suit, so relying on professionals to help me with build, maintain and market my website is a very great relief. I am looking forward to reviewing the first draft of my new website.

Web.com, as so many businesses today, has complete disregard for their customers and even less interested in actually providing a quality product and service at a competitive cost or value for their customers.
Firstly, they lie about how much they charge. They quote one price and then add ICANN fees separately. They then add approximately 30% additional cost in the form of their line itemed out SSL fees.
Their 'chat' representatives not only cannot apparently understand or speak English, they simply lie and then, when you finally get them to start doing their job, they stop... refer you to their 800 helpline, and disconnect.
I have two sites with them and am looking for another hosting alternative. I would NOT recommend this useless company to anyone.

I was hired by a client who had purchased the Web.com Site Builder to build a DIY website. They quickly realized they couldn't get results from the software, so they hired me (web guy) to take a stab at it. I experienced nothing but frustration and poor results. The tools/templates are poorly designed and simply don't work as they should. Things as simple as styling text SIMPLY DON'T WORK <<< this is not an exaggeration and that's just a basic example. After spending more time than I should've and more than one session with unhelpful "coaches"... and then being escalated to "tech support" and receiving equally bad service (unbelievable!), I gave up and encouraged the client to cancel their service. They did cancel but were unable to get a refund on their $325 purchase and have nothing to show for it in the end. It's disgraceful what Web.com is selling. My advice -- do NOT give your money to this terrible company.

Terrible!
December 4, 2019

We paid $17,000 for hosting, FB and SEO on 8/29/19 and until yesterday, 12/3/2019 absolutely nothing had been done. Whatever they did yesterday has caused our website to be down and we cannot send or receive emails. When trying to call them we are put on hold for a minimum of 1 hour every single time. When someone finally answers we're put on hold again. I wouldn't use this company it was free!

Web.com is a terrific company to work with because they have excellent representatives who able able to work with you whether you need to buy a domain name or set up a Facebook page for your business - just two of the many services they offer. I had an wonderful experience today with web consultant Erin Barrington who helped me with a Facebook page for my business. She was knowledgeable, easy to work with and efficient. Great experience!

$2.95 a month for a site, with hosting? And these "business" people are complaining! What do you expect! Like the schmucks who complain that there is not enough beef in their 60 cent taco. As the owner of a successful development, marketing and hosting company, I say "thank you" web.com for absorbing these something-for-nothing "customers."

Amber A's professional and delightful conversation at the Exhibit Hall of the Heckerling Institute's legal conference in Orlando was perfect. She raised salient questions that caused me to realize my law firm could benefit from Web.com's services. She answered my questions and I agreed to try this company's help with my website.
During my follow up phone call to provide information for Web.com to start to work, Robin L was also very professional, very articulate and very patient with me. She spent all the time it took, making excellent and savvy recommendations and working with me to wordsmith some of the text I had drafted. I am a well satisfied customer!

Not As User Friendly as I Thought
December 30, 2022
Updated review

The help on customer service is slow. There are features which were advertised for my theme but I can't get them up, so instead of video clips, I'm having to just do photos. I'm not real happy about this but I've already invested in waay to many hours to stop now. I will have to rely on my own intelligence instead of doing the chat thing that takes forever and many times does not give me the answers I am looking for.

This is my third web site I am building with web.com in 2 months, having built web site with at least 3 other companies over the years. Everyone you talk to speaks good English, understand the questions and issues. Kayla was no exception. She did a great job interviewing me and we had fun doing it. She had great insight as to what we had to offer, and if she was following a script, it didn't sound like it. Loved working with her and recommend her highly to others. If there were 6 stars I would give them all. Ed
