Bluehost Review

This, being the initial blog entry about Bluehost web hosting, I will briefly cover what Bluehost has to offer. Future blog entries will consist of website speed test results, customer support surveys and whatever else that can be used to measure the compentency of Bluehost. So, let's get into it..

Well, Bluehost has been in business since 1996 which makes them 10 years old. That is a long time for a web hosting company. Thankfully, along with the 10 years of experience comes a lot of experience working with webmasters and knowing what their needs are. Base users get 200GB of disk space and 2,000 GB of bandwidth which is more than enough. You say some hosts give more than that? Yes, you are right. But what hosts do is jam as many sites as they can onto a server and what happens is you get a few hogs that bog the server down for all the other sites. Bluehost maintains a responsible approached to managing shared hosting services to maximize space for webmasters to grow their sites, yet without sacrificing speed and quality.

Full customer support by phone or email is provided 24/7. All servers support the normal languages and databases you would expect like, PHP, CGI, MySql, but also supports things like Ruby on Rails(ROR) and the latest versions of Wordpress and other related programs.

In my next Bluehost Review entry I will relay some of my experiences with Bluehost staff.
