We are excited to announce the new Bluehost experience. Our team has spent the last 6 months working hard to rethink what it means to help you, your neighbor, and every small business succeed with their online presence. Through this process we knew we had to change the experience, the technology, and the way we speak to our customers. When Bluehost started in 2003, our plan was simple\u2014be the best web hosting<\/a> company in the world. In 2017, our goals have evolved and our responsibility to our customers is greater than ever before. At Bluehost, our goal is to empower you, your website, and online business<\/em> and our new platform is one step closer to delivering that goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simplified Onboarding<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As we took a hard look at our products, we realized that getting customers logged into their website is a huge indicator for long-term success. Historically, customers had to stumble through the process of learning about many different technologies, what and how DNS works, installing WordPress<\/a>, SSL’s, and then finding a nice theme that brings it all together. With the new Bluehost platform, one button will take you straight into the website design<\/a> process.

Managing multiple WordPress sites can take time and present challenges for even the most savvy WordPress. For this reason, we’ve built an exclusive section of the Bluehost WordPress hosting<\/a> experience dedicated to easily managing all of your WordPress sites.

This new Bluehost interface is a huge step forward. It makes it easy for beginners to get started and setup their WordPress site.<\/em>
And I like that it doesn’t alienate advanced users because you have features like staging, the ability to change PHP versions, and access to the full cPanel interface if you need it.<\/em>
Overall A+ on the work!<\/em>

Last but definitely not least, we are bringing together the experience and lessons learned from running MOJO Marketplace for the past 7 years, to create an industry leading marketplace. The Bluehost Marketplace includes premium hosting, add-on’s, domains; and WordPress themes, plugins, services, and support. We believe we have brought together a marketplace that customers can truly find the products they need to build, brand, and grow their online presence all from their Bluehost account.

In addition to a completely new experience, every new WordPress site on Bluehost will benefit from the latest security and performance features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
