Overall Satisfaction with Bluehost

We use WordPress on it. Web hosting is used with cPanel. We want to communicate our services to potential customers. It is a small website with not many visitors. You can use mulitiple installations of WordPress. We do not use the Bluehost email services. Hosting is acceptable for small sites. WordPress is running on a shared server.

No

Did Bluehost live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Bluehost go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Bluehost again?

No

It is very easy to install WordPress and get it up and running very quickly. Backups and email could be better. You would have to use some custom plugins in WordPress to get better backups and email features. Shared hosting does not give you full control over the hosting. If you are only doing WordPress, then it gets the job done. It is still more expensive than Digital Ocean.

Bluehost Reliability

The website is slow. The speed is not reliable. Sometimes, sites would go down without warning. You would have to get a VPS to get consistent speed. If you have small website as a hobby, then Bluehost will be sufficient. Otherwise, I recommend looking for something more fast. Storage is good, but speed is lacking.
