My experience with Bluehost was very similar to the ones listed here. I placed my new website with them and soon after I got it up and running, I started having periods of downtime every day. Sometimes it was 10 minutes, other times it was over 1 hour. My site was developing a strong but small reader membership (over 300) when the site would go down. Not at all the type of service that I needed to promote my site.

I contacted Live Chat almost daily and was told that a “server upgrade” went badly. I asked to be moved to a different server and the request was denied. The last week that I had service with them I had daily downtime of at least 15 minutes. I chose to move to a different host and the change was has been amazing. Almost no down time and snappy responsiveness.
I have also been told that if your site has files over 50,000, Bluehost will not back up your site and will ask you to move to a dedicated server. WTF?

Luckily, I was refunded my money and took my back-up to another hosting site that helped me transfer the site without issues.

I will never go back to Blue Host…… EVER!
