Things generally seem clunkier with the newer control panel - I've been with Blue Host for over 20 years - I'm talking about the shift over the past 5 years or so.

I signed up because you offered the staging site feature. I spoke to support yesterday - you don't have that feature.

Sent mail from my Bluehost domain seems to come from a bunch of different IP addresses, several of which are on a blacklist.

Everything is fine on this host, but there is a slight problem. Bluehost does not support the Arabic language.
It is better not to forget that there are more than 300 million Arabic speakers around the world. We hope this issue will be resolved as soon as possible.

So far I have had a wonderful experience with Bluehost as my host provider. I love how they offer help if you need it 24/7 and their dash board is easy to understand. I'm happy I chose bluehost as my hosting platform for my Wordpress site.

Everything works, good chat support. Only thing that loses a star is the cost. Still considering switching to another provider longer term on that basis

I have really enjoyed the support that your team of experts deliver each time I call. Your website is easy to navigate but I think your FAQs pages could be improved a little. Thanks for being there and helping me publish my website.

Being new to website development, things are confusing and overwhelming. I honestly don't even know where to start. Too many add on, plug ins, and options, and I have no clue what they do.
