What’s in the Bluehost Shared Hosting Black Friday deal for 2026?

The current Bluehost holiday sale gives you 15% off one eligible product, 20% off two and 25% off three, on 12-month terms. Shared hosting counts as an eligible product in this holiday offer. No promo code is needed.

Your discount tier depends on how many eligible products are in your cart, so the cart sets the tier. The table below shows how each tier works.

Eligible products in your cart	Discount applied	Term
One product added	15% off	12-month
Two products added	20% off	12-month
Three products added	25% off	12-month

If shared hosting is the only eligible product in your cart, the first 15% off applies. You can see each plan on the 12-month tab of our Black Friday 12-month pricing page.

A few conditions shape what you pay now and what you pay later. Check each one before you pick a plan, since they affect both your first bill and your renewal.

Term: The Black Friday discount applies to eligible 12-month hosting purchases. Select the 12-month term at checkout to access the promotional offer.
New purchases: Promotional pricing applies to the initial term for new customers. Renewals bill at the regular rate.
Confirm in your cart: The discount shows at checkout. Confirm it appears before you pay.
One event: Black Friday and Cyber Monday run as one sale. It ends Nov 30, 2026.

Which Bluehost Shared hosting plan should you buy on Black Friday?

Choose by how many sites you run, the security and support you need, and whether you’ll sell from your site. Those needs separate the plans.

Starter vs. Business vs. eCommerce Essentials

Criteria	Starter	Business	eCommerce Essentials
Websites	10	50	100
Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) storage	10 GB	50 GB	100 GB

The table gives you the facts, and the scenarios below match them to common small business sites. Find the line that sounds most like your site. That’s usually the plan to start with.

Starter: Choose it if you’re launching a simple site or blog. It fits when 24/7 chat support covers your needs.
Business: Choose it if your site takes leads or third-party payments. It adds WAF and DDoS protection, phone support and room for 50 sites.
eCommerce Essentials: Choose it if you’ll sell products, memberships, subscriptions or courses from your own site.

If you run a service business, our guide to shared hosting for small businesses covers setup and safe use after you buy.

When a 12-month Black Friday term makes sense

The Bluehost Black Friday Web hosting deals apply to 12-month terms. A one-year term lowers your upfront cost and gives you room to reassess once you see real traffic, storage and support needs.

Choose the 12-month path if you are:

Launching or testing: You want to validate an idea, migrate from another host or refine your stack before committing long term.
Expecting changes: You may upgrade plans, add security features or start selling later in the year.
Budgeting cash flow: A smaller first payment helps you start now without overcommitting.
Bundling products thoughtfully: If you already plan to buy other eligible products, adding them can move you to a higher discount tier. Only add what you need.

How to budget for year two:

Check the renewal line in your cart: Note what your plan renews at after the first term.
Set a reminder: Add a calendar alert 2–3 weeks before renewal to review usage, price and plan fit.
Keep add-ons lean: Uncheck extras you don’t need today. Your free first-year domain renews at its listed rate after year one.
Review your hosting needs before renewal: Check whether your current plan still meets your website’s storage, security and support requirements, and review the applicable renewal price.

What every Bluehost shared hosting plan includes beyond the discount

Eligible 12-month Bluehost shared hosting plans include a free first-year domain, essential security features and 24/7 chat support. Some extras vary by plan. Several also come with conditions you should know before you pay.

The list below covers each extra and its fine print, including our uptime service level agreement (SLA). Use it to judge the full value of a plan, beyond its sale price.

Free domain for the first year: Eligible 12-month hosting plans include a free domain, redeemable within 90 days on qualifying extensions.
Domain limits: Premium domains are excluded. After year one, the domain renews at the then-current rate.
Security basics: Every plan includes free Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), malware scanning and weekly backups. Business and eCommerce Essentials add WAF and DDoS protection.
Performance: Every plan runs on NVMe storage with a free content delivery network (CDN) and caching to help pages load quickly.
Uptime SLA: Bluehost Shared hosting offers a 99.99% uptime SLA.
Support: You get 24/7 chat on every plan, phone support on Business and eCommerce Essentials. (International calling charges may apply.)
Free Site Migration Tool: You can move eligible WordPress sites to Bluehost with this tool. Domain and email settings may need separate steps.
30-day money-back guarantee: Eligible new hosting purchases qualify for a refund of hosting fees when canceled within 30 days. Domain fees, most add-ons and other excluded services are non-refundable.
Domain fee on refunds: A non-refundable domain fee is deducted if your plan included a free domain. No refunds are given after 30 days.

Domain renewal prices can change over time, so check yours before year one ends. For the full terms, see Bluehost domain pricing and renewals.
