Yeah, bluehost suck, they are down for quite some time right now too and I can't access my sites or even login to control panel. Already got a dedicated server, if you look around, you can find a lower end dedicated in reputable company for under $30 a month, I think its better than vps.

I used to love Bluehost. My site is always down now. When I call to inform them, they always say it is my fault. They are full of crap. I'm leaving them.

I have same problem with Bluehost. I bought 3 year hosting service last year and today our web site is suspended. I wrote a ticket about my problem and there is no response for a day.

I'm still waiting to get answer from BlueHost.

Hi They have suspended my account to becouse of somebody is hacking in on my account and uploded his page there. and I installed and proved masmailer on my email adresses this is a reason I am really happy to be free from this skit company. I have paid for 3 years and used only one year theirs servicies. As fast I started to receive daily visitors to my account they have susspended it. I suspect that they have published som stuped banking site to my public_html folder. Besause of I taking place with so many files and starting to recive visitors.
From so on I will say only thruth about BlueHost to whole world.

I am not here to advice anyone to join this or that webhost I am here to advice people to stay away from Bluehost. It isn’t about their speed, it’s about their attitude!

I signed up with them, moved my sites over and then suddenly all my sites just displayed the message: “This Account Has Been Suspended” .

Imagine how nice it is for your users to see that message instead of your websites!. Obviously they’ll think you did something wrong, but the only problem is: you signed up with Bluehost!

Just this morning my business site and e-commerce site went down again with BlueHost. Their customer service told me “99.99% uptime gurantees we will be connected to the ISP. We are still connected to the ISP but our servers are down.”

That tells me their real uptime is less than 99.99% and it also tells me I am going to continually have trouble running my e-commerce site with bluehost.

Are Dreamhost, GoDaddy or anyone else better? Can’t make a living if my sites are down.

Bluehost sucks, but they give high amounts for affiliate service, so they are all over with their adds on so called webhost rating sites, which are affiliate sites claiming objectivity and real independent information. Bluehost have no real long term business plan, and their customers will get taste of that soon. If you are on bluehost, it is a matter of time when and over what they will screw you.

Bluehost just suspended my account without notice and when I called did not give me explanation in detail. My customers are noe mad at me since their site are down. Their quality of services has consistently gone down.

Bluehost is gradually becoming slower and slower…For example, my websites are all down right now. And I’m getting downtime more and more frequently.

I agree…they were so great just last year – now we are getting such a decrease in quality.

This post is really late, and I never make comments, but I had to on this one.

I use to love Bluehost. I’ve been with them for 5 years now, but in the last 8 months or so their service has continually gotten worse. I kept hoping that it would get better, as they would tell me every time I spoke with someone that their techs have found the issue and it would be resolved. That of course has never happened.

The service has now become terrible and I just can’t take it anymore, and today I have finally decided that I need to find a new place to host my sites.

If you have any recommendations on any good hosting companies, please let me know.

BLuehost performance has gotten a lot worse over the last couple of months. Seems they have “server under heavy load” problems at least twice a week now. Can’t the morons fix it by now? Are they really that stupid??? Time to move to another hosting company.

I’ve got web hosting on pretty much all the top hosting companies. The best I have found are ones with clustered hosting. Netfirms is good. I also heard that Vistapages has come out with some cPanel clustered hosting, which bluehost uses as their control panel too. Might be worth looking into!

[...] month we had a serious debate on whether BlueHost is Going Down on Quality? and surprisingly most of the readers agreed. Perhaps its also because of the continously growing [...]

I am only here to say I signed up to be an affiliate for BlueHost and before spending any time creating any promotions on them I signed up for their hosting just to see what my future leads were going to get.

Well…BlueHost killed my hosting account within 24 hours accusing me to giving them inaccurate contact info. They won’t reply to any emails now?

Their affiliate manager sound like those fascists that John Belushi almost ran over in “Blues Brothers”. I don’t understand what’s happening with BlueHost nor why they treated me like this, nor do I care. I am just here to warn anyone who might be thinking of joining them. These are proper cowboys, they’ll shoot first then they’ll ask “who is there”. I still don’t have a clue what their problem with me was and life’s too short to even bother.

I just hope my paypal dispute will help get my $95 back. Oh and while I was in there, it isn’t true that you get adwords and Yahoo credits! You only get them if you join adwords and Yahoo via BlueHost’s affiliates link!

I’ve used bluehost nearly for 5 years and just recently, I’ve been getting this error as well. Now I am a web programmer so I know how to optimize my website to use less CPU and still this is happening, so it’s definitely an issue on Bluehost.com’s site.

My company uses bluehost to host all its websites and this is my only source of income so I cannot have my sites down 10-20 mins through out the day!!

They better fix the issue before people start looking else where, specifically for dedicated severs

Using Bluehost and quality in the same sentence is an oxymoron. I had so many problems with Bluehost it would take a short novel to describe them. Read about my nightmare with Bluehost.
