Bluehost is a well known name and they're one of the companies you're sure to meet when looking for a web hosting provider with Bluehost review. Some of their sales blurb looks too good to be true but if only most of it's genuine, that's OK because the overall package seems so good. They mention plenty of "Free" and "Unlimited" features so it seems worth taking a closer look.
Then you start to read the rest and you see "No Hidden Fees", "Free Instant Setup" and "Anytime Money Back Guarantee", so these make the offer look great rather than just good for your web hosting reviews. You've seen offers like this before and they usually turn out to be a disappointment. At this price, it's worth a try.
So you sign up, get your welcome mail, username and password and go back to the front page and log in. The first domain name you sign up with is your primary domain and from the login screen you can access Domain Manager so you can add other domains. Add as many other domains as you like and each one will appear as an add-on to your primary domain. Each will map to a directory on your hosting space.
Also under Domain Manager, you can do things like register a new domain, transfer a new domain to your account and assign it to your cPanel account. If you've never seen cPanel, prepare to be amazed. The usual interface for setting up your system and installing software with many hosting companies is some kind of proprietary, not too helpful screen, full of stuff you have to spend a lot of time learning.
CPanel is very user friendly. Right from the start, it's intuitive and it looks good. But it's when you start to look in detail at what you get that the true value starts to sink in. It's like a goldmine, with everything you could ever want. This isn't just hype, this is what you'll really think when you get to this stage. You spot things like, "SEO Tools", "Mail" and "Spam Assassin", whatever that is.
File handling is well catered for, with site backup and the well known File Transfer Protocol (FTP) being provided. Website access logs and security are made available. If you need to protect a directory with a password, you may do so. Database tools are all there, with MySQL and all its associated utilities being prominent. The other thing you'll notice is Simple Scripts.
Once you start up Simple Scripts, you'll find a mouthwatering array of icons with names of programs you recognize but may not have had access to before. WordPress is unbelievably easy to install. With a single click of your mouse, you can install it on each of your domains if you wish. The eCommerce shopping carts include some of the best known names, again with easy installation.
Bluehost has made a great name for itself in the industry through persistent hard work as seen through Bluehost. They offer round the clock, very friendly, helpful support with online chat available for web hosting company. You may never hear from them unless you contact them, but when you do, you can rest assured they'll solve your problem.
