Overview
BlueHost is not new to web hosting industry. They have been providing web hosting services to thousands of business and personal web sites since 1996. Within a short period of 12 years, BlueHost had hosted more than one million customer's websites. We use BlueHost for one of our websites, Brainy-Child.com, for years now and we found BlueHost to be very reliable. BlueHost offers a very competitive and complete web hosting plan that could easily meet most of your web hosting requirements but at a fraction of a cost of US$3.95 per month.

Key Hosting Features
Bluehost web hosting plan offers unlimited disk space and bandwidth. Like Lunarpages, you can also host multiple domains with a single BlueHost account. In other words, you can operate unlimited unique URL websites under just one BlueHost account at only US$3.95 per month. Recently, we just added a new website onto our BlueHost account with no extra cost except only the cost of domain name. We're planning to add more websites onto BlueHost to save more cost in the future.

In addition, BlueHost web hosting plan offers most of the standard web hosting features: free International domain names forever, FrontPage Extension, Ruby / Ruby On Rails, 2,500 pop3 email accounts, Cpanel control panel, website statistic analysis software and more. Below are few highlights:

mySQL Database - While many web hosting service providers support only 1 to 5 mySQL databases, BlueHost offers up to 100 mySQL databases at your disposal. You will need many mySQL if you plan to create a web site that supports dynamic web pages, online forums or shopping cart software. BlueHost also supports up to 100 PostgreSQL databases just in case you need them.

e-Commerce Ready - BlueHost web hosting plan is e-commerce ready. It supports osCommerce shopping cart, Agora shopping cart, Cube shopping cart, Zen shopping cart, generated certificate and SSL secure server. You do not have to pay extra to enjoy these e-commerce features when you sign-up with BlueHost. However, BlueHost does not provide merchant account services but it's ecommerce solution, Agora shopping cart, is compatible with leading merchant account providers such as Authroize.net and CardService.com

Fantastico Script Library - The Fantastico Scripts Library is a collection of popular website plug-in scripts that can be installed into your website directly from the control panel. Example of the Fantastico scripts that you can add onto your website easily are Bloggers, Forum, PHP Nuke, Poll/Survey and many many more.

Free Domain Forever - Your domain will remain free for as long as you remain as a customer with BlueHost! This translate to yearly saving of approximately US$9.95 of domain name renewal fee.

Customer Support
BlueHost is renowned for its outstanding customer service (Best Customer Service Winner, 2009 by Hosting Review) by providing various channels of support. You can reach BlueHost's sales personnel or technical specialists by toll-free telephone or emails 24/7 whenever you need it.

BlueHost's records showed that 75% of the average hold time for customers on the phone were answered in less than 30 seconds and the average ticket response time for Level 1 queries was less than 50 minutes. That is considered exceptionally good in the web hosting industry standard.

Summary

The e-commerce ready hosting plan comes with unlimited disk space and bandwidth plus up to 100 mySQL databases. Moreover, you can host unlimited websites on a single BlueHost account. We think it is a steal for $3.95 per month.
