*πŸ“œ Plan description

β€œPremium” is built for sites/apps prioritizing storage + CPU performance. Supports 100 websites and lifts storage to 150 GB NVMe with β€œ6X more CPU power.” Includes AI site-creation tools, free domain 1st year, free site migration tool, free CDN, managed WordPress updates, 24/7 chat + phone support, weekly backups, and the same security bundle (SSL, malware scanning/detection/removal, WAF, DDoS, domain privacy free 1st year). Pricing shown applies to a 36-month term; renewals are higher; taxes not included.

All High Performance plans share the same core: enhanced CPU allocation for steadier performance under load, scalable infrastructure to absorb traffic spikes, and WordPress-forward tooling like staging, SSH/WP-CLI, and caching. 30-day money-back applies on hosting; one domain free for the first year with 12/36-month commitments. Admin via cPanel plus Bluehost’s WonderSuite onboarding and guidance.

πŸ“„ Editorial Review

Bluehost has operated since 2003 (founded by Matt Heaton) and became part of Endurance International Group in 2010β€”now under Newfold Digital. They’re also an ICANN-accredited registrar (originally via FastDomain/HostMonster). The brand targets a broad, global audience with multi-language (EN, ES, FR, DE, IT, NL) and multi-currency support.
Product portfolio:
  • Shared Hosting: entry plans aimed at blogs and small sites, with a push toward "High Performance Hosting" options that increase CPU/RAM and storage for heavier workloads.
  • Managed WordPress Hosting / WordPress Cloud: an all-in-one stack focused on speed and security (LiteSpeed servers, NVMe SSD, built-in caching, global CDN, HTTP/3, Object Cache Pro). Security messaging includes firewalling, daily malware scanning, DDoS mitigation, auto WP updates, and free SSL. WordPress extras include guided onboarding, SSO into WP Admin, staging, automated backups, and their WonderSuite (templates/WonderBlocks/AI tools).
  • VPS Hosting: AMD EPYC compute, DDR5 RAM, NVMe storage, full root, and optional guided setup (they’ll install cPanel and WordPress if desired).
  • Dedicated Servers: latest-gen Xeon with NVMe, root access, and managed support; positioned for high-traffic applications.
  • Domains & Professional Email: domain registration and branded email options; they also resell Google Workspace (newer plans highlighting Google AI/Gemini features).
  • Website Design Services: an in-house team builds custom WordPress sites and stores (content/SEO copywriting, design, onboarding, and post-launch change window).

Bluehost is still a feature-rich, WordPress-centric provider with broad plan coverage (shared β†’ VPS β†’ dedicated). The brand’s scale brings polished tooling and integrations; however, long-time users have noted quality fluctuations through ownership changes, and marketing can be aggressive around "best"/"top-rated" claims.

Blue Host was once regarded as a highly active and reliable hosting company, but its quality has gradually declined following a series of acquisitionsβ€”a trend also reflected in WHTop customer reviews. The company continues to highlight its past recognition by ReviewSignal, a now-defunct review platform with limited credibility, which further harms its image.

In past years, Bluehost attempted to expand internationally, even operating bluehost.cn (now defunct as of 2025) and acquiring numerous localized domain names in different countries to consolidate its global brand presence.

In August 2021, Newfold Digitalβ€”the parent company of Bluehostβ€”acquired Yoast, the widely used WordPress SEO plugin. Since then, Bluehost has actively promoted Yoast as part of its hosting packages, a move seen as a way to boost profit margins.
