bluehost review low cost website hosting

According to our records, Bluehost has established her business since Nov., 2002 in Utah, USA. Bluehost is an excellent company. Though Bluehost teams have only one hosting plan, this hosting plan beats most plans their competitors provide. It is easy to find a plan with more than 100G bandwidth, or a plan with Postgre support, or a plan with three log file analyzers. But it is rare to find a plan of $7.95/mo with all these features, not to mention their excellent support.

Go to Bluehost NOW!!!

The following is the features table of their hosting plan.

General Information: They currently only offer one hosting package. This package includes 30G disk space and 750G bandwidth per month. The 750G bandwidth is quite enough for personal and small business sites ( a typical website of the above kind requires only a few Gs per month).

Database Support: They offer 50 Mysql databases, enough for normal usage. And they even provide 50 Postgre databases, which is rare to find on the Internet. If you happen to have scripts using Postgre, Bluehost is probably your first choice.

Multiple-Domain Support: You could host 6 websites in one account. It saves you quite a lot if you have multiple websites.

Control Panel: Bluehost chooses cPanel as user control panel. cPanel is extremely feature rich as well as includes an easy-to-use web based interface (GUI). And with Fantastico, you could install your favorite CMS system (such as mambo, joomla, typo3, phpnuke) as well as blogs (e.g. Nucleus, Textpattern, b2evolution, Geeklog, Wordpress) in just one click.

Support: The support team of BlueHost often responses support tickets in less than 30 minutes. Only a little fraction of tickets require a whole day to response.

Uptime: Although they do not formally offer an Uptime guarantee, their servers are very reliable according to our monitor servers in CA and NJ. The average uptime of bluehost servers we supervise is above 99.6%.

Web Statistics: BlueHost provides three log file analyzers. Log file analyzer can tell you how many unique visitors per day, how often search engine bots visit you, what keyword phrases the visitors use to find your site and much much more. Among these analyzer tools, we believe Awstats is most accurate in distinguishing between human visitors and search engine bots.

Special Offers: If you pay annually, you get a free domain. And the rate for a two-year purchase is $6.95/mo.

  • Do they offer daily and weekly auto backup?

  • I have three sites at BlueHost. I feel satisfied with their services. Of course, all my sites are not mission critical.

  • Their server uptime is good. Their price is reasonable. And their support is above the average.

  • I have one site hosted by Bluehost. I especially like Bluehost's backup system introduced recently. After that, I haven't worried about my data anymore.
