My Hosting Experience with BlueHost

During the off hours I work as a freelancer and work on WordPress projects. I work on many clients hosting projects. I try to design and upgrade and do the other development modifications. I have managed to do a lot of editing with the WordPress. And for this I am using many cpanel hosts with the clients. Bluehost is one such host that I have a lot of experience with while working with clients. 2 out of 10 clients have it as host. And so my experience everyday is increasing. I wish to add few of my observation on the hosting part. I want to explain why I am not suggesting this host to many of my clients.

EIG Takeover

Ever since bluehost has been taken over by the EIG, their servers are acting funny. And they are not much worth going towards. Most of their hosting are from single data center. And they have the backend of the Indian call centers. You can see that their customer service time is also increased. The amount of time it takes for the arvixe and the bluehost is also high. Almost every hosting company which is owned by them has now the service given through Indian call center. And this way they have made a lot of mistakes. I wish that in future they avoid such things and treat customer with some seriousness.

Data Center

The moment the hosting companies are taken over by the EIG, the data centers were united. Your bluehost server is in same location to that of hostgator. Also all brands are pretty much serviced the same way. And bluehost has more data center issues. I have found that they may offer some value to the affiliates to get more sales. But it’s just not worth going forward with. I don’t promote those affiliate links on the blogs anymore. I am going to recommend linode and few other hosting sites. The reason being data center costs are high and the EIG is going to reduce that so surely that has to come from mediocre services.

Pricing & Tech

I think in terms of technical side there are lot of issues. But the pricing is good. You can find like most of their brands, this brand too have good pricing on hosting packages. You may find that in between the hostgator and bluehost you have a good pricing there. You get the cpanel hosting. You can also have your own control panel on backend, if you are on VPS and managed hosting. You may find that bluehost has good support on the SSL side. You can see that pricing and tech wise there are not many issues and the site is doing good so far from what I have learned about it. I’d say for anyone with one pager website, this can be a good option. There is not much of loss for one pager website.

I think in due time you can see that there are some of the options which may be good for going to get your website hosted. Like say hawkhost is another alternative worth checking out.
