2005 Host of the Year

BlueHost has consistently achieved high standards in performance and support all year. Despite their exponential growth, BlueHost has maintained its excellent support response times and increased their already impressive package features. Against literally hundreds of web hosts, BlueHost provides top value to customers and is deserving of Hosting-Review's most prestigious award, the 2005 Host of the Year.


 









BlueHost as providers of web hosting solutions since 1996, have developed a strong reputation in the industry. They are currently one of the top-ranking hosting firms on the marketplace today. They are known throughout the web for excellent customer service and can be reached live on their customer support desk via toll-free telephone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Tested extensively, this truly is award-winning support.

You can also reach their support team via their sophisticated support ticket tracking system. This company offers reliable hosting with excellent disk space and bandwidth. Their shared hosting plan includes a free domain name, and their single plan offer of just $6.95/month for 300 GB of space and 3000 GB of bandwidth provides value that is hard to match!

You can now host unlimited domains on 1 account, and their management team continues to invest in upgrades to benefit their customers.

Price Value
When doing our BlueHost review, we found that they offer a high quality hosting plan for a great price. Their single coverage plan provides you with 300 GB of hosting space and 3000 GB of bandwidth. This is excellent coverage compared to most web hosting firms and provides good value to the consumer. You also receive many added features, including a domain name free of charge, 2500 POP3 web-based e-mail accounts, unlimited add-on domains, FTP, PHP, CGI, cPanel, Fantastico scripts, 50 MySQL databases, Agora Shopping Cart, PageBuilder drag-and-drop site builder, support for Ruby on Rails, and more. This is a very comprehensive feature package compared to most web hosting firms, and BlueHost is committed to continually finding new ways to make it even better.

Reliability
When something goes wrong, people tend to let you know. We have not received many notices about BlueHost, which is a good thing. Their quad processor Opteron servers are not only much faster than most competitors' servers, they are also extremely reliable. BlueHost provides standard uptime gurantees - no issues here.

Control Panel
BlueHost uses the Cpanel control panel, which comes loaded with many excellent features on its user interface. The navigation menus are easy to understand and use. Icons are created for each feature in the control panel and help information is easily accessible next to each feature. They have also integrated a number of billing features to make management of your account very simple and easy to configure.

Customer Support
This web hosting company is superb with respect to the quality of support offered. You can submit a question to their help desk via their online form, visit the extensive FAQ section of their website, or call their toll-free support desk 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Staff are knowledgable and friendly and available around the clock.
