[QUOTE="DestinyAL, post: 118378, member: 15923"] Did you know that Bluehost is home to more than 2 million websites? That’s a lot. Having such a vast customer base is enough evidence that they are doing something right. Their uptime is reliable, server speeds are good, and all of their hosting plans pack useful features for beginners and intermediate alike.[IMG]https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/hM2c7s-KFHSYIPkwJniNLVnxwq127WJZhz_469_SURcPYBW_AA47Ee2lBLG8uidSjnfkIjH1JwGkB6mPE64tmsVpu5NxSY67A3qhHJrdQhZr96c64GOPNBwPja1Cf1lBAOJ8vn4[/IMG] Pros of Using Bluehost Hosting Bluehost has been around since 2003, so they have plenty of experience to know what makes a hosting service excellent. Their introductory prices are affordable, customer support is easy to reach and helpful, and you get many useful features to go with your hosting plan. In addition, they provide reliable uptime and fast server speeds. Let’s take a more detailed look at Bluehost’s strong points. 1. Great Uptime Through 12-Months(99.96%) Uptime is one of the most critical aspects when choosing a web host — after all, if your site is down, your users can’t access it. So, consistent uptime should be one of your top priorities when looking at hosting services. After reviewing over 40 web hosts, our benchmark for “good” uptime is 99.93%. So ideally, we don’t want to see anything less than that. The good news is that Bluehost easily surpasses this benchmark, comfortably keeping our test site live for 99.96% of the time during the last 12 months (February 2020 to January 2021). The total downtime was a bit less than four hours for the whole year.

Fast Page Loading Speed (641 ms) “As page load time goes from 1s to 3s the probability of bounce increases 32%.” This translates to your visitors being 32% more likely to leave your site. And it only gets worse with longer page load times. Furthermore, Google is more geared towards mobile-first indexing. This means that your site also needs to be optimized for mobile users, or otherwise, you’re losing traffic. Either way, a slow website almost always means less traffic and, therefore, lower sales numbers. So right after uptime, page loading time is the second most important thing that can make or break your website’s success. Our test site with Bluehost has offered an average load speed of 641 ms over the past year. While it isn’t competing for the top positions, it isn’t bad either.

Low Introductory Pricing Bluehost’s default pricing starts at $3.95/month, which is an introductory price from the regular $8.99/month rate. Still, the cheapest plan does have a few restrictions that we’re not entirely happy with — but more about this later on. 4. Packed with Security Options and Features Since Bluehost is one of the “cheapest” options on the market, we are pleased to see that they don’t cut too many corners on critical security options and features. Already with the cheapest plan, Bluehost provides your site with a free SSL certificate. You also get access to great features like a free CDN (Cloudflare), a one-click WordPress install, multiple CMS integrations, and additional eCommerce plugins. Higher-tier plans come with the Spam Experts add-on, domain privacy protection, and server backups. Also, you get more advanced security features such as SiteLock, which helps prevent malware attacks. Codeguard is another form of protection, which provides daily backups so you can roll back previous versions of a site, should it get hacked. Postini, from Google, is the final security tool worth noting. It provides spam protection for your email, so anything suspicious is prevented from getting into your inbox. 5. Easy to Use for Beginners Some of the web hosts we’ve seen can be considered the best only if you’re an advanced user. But, Bluehost is great for beginners, too. Their customer portal is intuitive and clean (although, we have experienced it is a bit slow at times). And the layout of the cPanel control panel makes Bluehost even easier to use. Beginners can easily install and start WordPress through cPanel. All you need to do is point and click in most cases.

You can then customize a template by just dragging and dropping elements on your page. Bluehost also has features for advanced users who want to use their code to create their site. 6. 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee Bluehost offers a 30-day money-back guarantee with all of their hosting plans. You can try out the service to see their performance for yourself and ask for a refund if you’re not completely satisfied. We have a few words of caution, though. 7. 24/7 Customer Support Bluehost provides 24/7 customer support over live chat, phone, and an email ticketing system. On top of that, they have a vast knowledge base packed with answers to frequent questions and useful information. We went ahead and tested their live chat option, and the experience was pleasant. We got answers to our questions quickly, and the representative was knowledgeable. Sure, some responses felt copy-pasted, but the follow-up questions prompted improvised and helpful answers.
