Thanks for the great info on Bluehost. I also tried them before and left because their tech support was terrible. Acted like they didn’t give a damn about you or your problem. I think the problem is that Bluehost has gotten too big and don’t really care about their customers anymore.

Solution? Find a high-quality, small “boutique” host that will respect you as a customer and allocate more resources to your websites.

Some advice for Bluehost. Twitter tweet @Bluehost need to pull their finger out, fix their servers and realise there is actually an issue with their hosting of our site right now More happy hosters with Bluehost. Twitter tweet Dear #Bluehost, if you fuck up my sites any worse, I'm going to be a teensy bit annoyed. (Aussie understatement of the YEAR.) Twitter tweet I've lost track of how many outages I've had in the 1 month of hosting from @bluehost. Would not recommend unless something improves. Twitter tweet ohhh @bluehost is really failing right now! Like REALLY! Twitter tweet Found a new home for all our webhosting. Dumping #Bluehost shortly. The moving truck has left the loading dock..... Goodbye Bluehost. I am soooo glad I am done with you. Hello Hostgator. All my sites are moved and working great.

The days of the "CPU exceeded errors" are long gone. With the introduction of CPU throttling you will probably never experience the famous "dreaded CPU exceeded" error.

What you are going through brings back memories...none of which were good. I hope you get it all sorted out soon. Good luck!

My site’s been down for 2 days now. Going on day 3. They have no ETA for the DDOS fix. My users are unhappy. My own judgment is now in question – how do we trust our business to this guy when he can’t even pick a decent host? Customer support was polite but ineffective.
I haven’t run into the CPU exceeded or too many users issues that others have mentioned here, but looks like it will only be a matter of time.

Goodbye bluehost, don't let the door hit you in the ass in the way out! #bluehostsucks Twitter tweet bluehost ate my photoblog. and they don't even care. evil! Twitter tweet wow, bluehost is trying to prove to me that big business customer service is dead. Twitter tweet Are you with Bluehost? I am having major problems with my site right now.

Twitter tweet Right on spot. I left Bluehost for MediaTemple just over a year ago and I couldn't be happier. Bluehost has really gone downhill.

1) As written in my blog, the service I received from Bluehost was substandard for the reasons I explained.

2) While you say you haven't had any problems, many people have experienced problems with Bluehost. This site allows individuals the liberty to voice their issues they have encountered with Bluehost.

3) While I haven't used Bluehost for approx two years, the same or similar issues continue to be major problems for their clients. If Bluehost would actually fix these on going issues and provide reliable service, the complaints and rants would cease and this site would have no reason to exist.
