What satisfied Bluehost customers are saying

Kukla John

I received a failed payment e-mail notification

I received an e-mail notification, supposedly from Bluehost, making me aware our auto-renewal failed due to outdated payment information. I was skeptical about the e-mail. I contacted Bluehost support via the chat function, and they confirmed that the e-mail was not from them and that all my auto-payment processing was already processed. They confirmed that the e-mail I received was a phishing attempt.

Human Beats AI Hands Down

I first worked by chat and phone with the AI support system. AI gal led me into editing my .htaccess file. Despite our best efforts, I broke the site I was working on and all the others I host at BlueHost. Fortunately, I was able to quickly restore the original .htaccess file. I tell this story to illustrate how much better my support was when AI gal passed me to your live technician. He saw that I was on the learning curve with WordPress Blocks and the Bluehost Blueprint theme, and showed me where to go to do what I needed to do. He was fast, knowledgeable, and a clear communicator.

LARRY GLETZER

Primary Domain and Sub-Domains Realized!!!

I have a business model that involves an enterprise with several divisions and regions. Bluehost allows me to be cost-effective by creating a primary domain and several subdomains. This allows investors to access top-level information about the corporation and its divisions . Concurrently, clients can access information about the desired products and services from a specific division in the region they need.
