My site loses security from time to time and visitors are deterred because of the warning the web browser gives.

Support has been responsive and helpful. The downtime and outages lately have been abysmal and the lack of communication from Bluehost about those problems has me considering other providers. I'm not getting what I'm paying for.

You keep telling me my server is having issues... for over a week. And I keep getting errors when I try to create a page on my new wordpress... that I have no internet connection.

My other 2 sites work... otherwise I'd give you 1 star

Really good support, just log in issues. Being booted out saying that I have tried over 5 times to sign in and will have to wait... I haven't and I'm the only one using this account. A bit frustrating when trying to get things done.

Customer service team has responded quickly and resolved issues in a timely fashion. Finally after the PHP upgrade the speed on our website has increased which took too long to update after my many complaints on speed.

We have had a bad experience for 3 months, we did not have email output for several days, emails could not be sent to external domains. It was solved little by little, now we have emails that do not reach the inboxes but are queued in quarantine of the antispam server
