Is bluehost one of the best hosting services
Being rather yellow in web hosting, I chose BlueHost mostly for the prices. Because it has fairly good reviews and reliability they boasted in their website. For a person like me, they seemed very appealing for a newbie. More than a decade in the industry is another reason I joined. Generally speaking, I found their customer ratings and reviews are mostly positve, so I thought they would be a good option to start with. What mostly attracted me was:
1. All the necessary standard features of a web host: cPanel, multiple database support, FTP, and email, to name just some;
2. Unlimited diskspace, and unlimited bandwidth (as far as I know pretty unusual to come in package), followed by unlimited numbers of addon domains, parked domains, and subdomains. (the limitations concern the number of databases – 50 each for MySQL and Postgre – and FTP and email accounts -1,000 and 2500, respectively);
3. I signed a 24 months contract, which is only .95/month (no setup fee, free domain included);
4. Great support team and really professional, what i like the best is their support thorough live chat. When calling I was never put on hold for very long, and all my questions were successfully answered by the incredibly patient staff;
5. One of the main reasons I chose them is that the wordpress plugin I had was and still is working only with linux.
There are some cons, though:
First of all, the pricing of the short term (3 months) contract - for those interested $9.95 / m is a bit over charging.
Of course there were angry complaints and reviews. which is true with any products and services in the world, as long as most of the consumers are happy consumers, that means the product or service provider are good.”) I must admit I’ve felt quite anxious having read them. Still, where there are many users, complaints are a natural thing to appear.
I will definitely recommend bluehost for anyone who is just starting up in the online world, as well as for small business sites and personal sites. but don’t just take my word, talk to their support team, and find out if they have the features you are looking for before signing up.
