I had a tech guy set up my site through Bluehost, then I took over. It has been a smooth experience.

A little of inestability last month. But overall avalibility good. Really fast portal. Support is a little of a gamble. For basic stuff really good. For more in deep, they are bad(had my own experience that I had to figured out myself after a lot of different support people). Prices are ok, they could be better.

Really appreciate email forwarding being included! Same with admin of multiple sites easy install of wordpress has been fantastic. No viruses or other takeover attempts is probably the most valuable thing to me overall so far.

Sometimes hard to learn, but that, in part, speaks to the volume of tools available.

I think it is crazy when trying to update new methods of paying for the account and we do not have access to change our billing or payment method. There has to be a better way!

I haven't been able to use Weebly for my primary domain, susangfowler.com. It may not be Bluehost's fault entirely -- more likely it's Squarespace/Weebly's -- but you asked, so I answered. I hope to add stars once I can use Weebly to develop my website because I don't want to spend a lot of time on it and I hate WordPress.
