Customer support is great and website building is easy, but the server crashes my site a lot.

I use your Website Builder for my blog page but it didn't show up what I edit and can't fix with multiple edit. Support lady can't help either and ask me to use WordPress instead of Bluehost Sitebuilder. I wasted lots my time by trusting Bluehost site builder.

Bluehost is great!
May 20, 2022

I love Bluehost! I've used 4 other providers and Bluehost is the absolute best. My site hasn't been hacked, the price is very affordable, I have access to the C panel and if I need any help they are quick to assist.

Extremely difficult to understand the pricing structure for the services.
Chat customer's service refuses to explain and disconnects the chat.
Some proper help would be highly appreciated!

Bluehost is by far the best hosting I have found because of price, uptimes, speed, and customer service. I always recommend Bluehost. I have several sites here and will be transferring more as they come due.
