BlueHost Web Hosting Review
A few years back I was looking for a reliable web hosting company that we could put a few of our web sites on. We wanted the ability to host several sites with one account. After doing lots of research and finding the best price we came across BlueHost.com. There are five main factors I look for in a hosting company:
- 24/7 Customer Support Number
- Host multiple websites with one account
- Price
- SSH (Secure Shell)
- History in the business
I read numerous post on forums and did some searches for Blue Host reviews and found several. Many of the people posting the reviews explained how BlueHost had provided them with excellent customer service. This is very rare in the hosting business these days. Currently we have a little over 125 websites spread over eight hosting companies. We have tried a little over 14 web hosts altogether and Bluehost hands down has given us the best support.
Once we signed on for our first account we quickly added three domains to the account. When we signed up we paid for one year up front but it worked out to be $6.95 per month. Once we added our three sites it brought our hosting cost down to only $2.32 per website. This was incredible since the sites that are on the account cost zero dollars to maintain. All we had to do was make $2.32 per month to break even. One of the three sites on the account makes on average $650.00 per month via Google Adsense and with the hosting cost so low you can see how much profit we are making.
When I researched the company here are some of the interesting awards and facts:
- BlueHost has been in business hosting customers since 1996 (11 years)
- Best Customer Service Award 2006 by hosting-review.com
- Best Web Host Award 2006 by 10-cheapwebhosting.com
- 2005 Web Host of the Year by 100best-web-hosting.com
- Rated #1 Web Host by Hostingchecker.com
- Editors' Choice Award by WebHostingGeeks.com
- 300 Gigabyte Hosting Space
- 2,500 POP/Imap Email Accounts
As you can see by the many awards and recommendations BlueHost has great customer service and budget or cheap web hosting rates. If you prefer they have an online help center than answers many of the questions you may have once you set-up your account and if you don't feel like looking and reading you can call them 24 hours a day on their
Technical Support number.
