How to Set Up a BlueHost Web Hosting Account in 5 Easy Steps

November 26, 2012 by Sue Surdam | Artizon Digital Leave a Comment

How to Setup a Bluehost AccountIt’s no secret that I love Bluehost web hosting. What’s not love with a service that includes one fee domain, great customer service, and easy WordPress install? I recommend them to all my clients. Did I mention the unlimited domain hosting and unlimited e-mails accounts? They are just a another benefit of their hosting service.

WordPress and Bluehost are a match made in heaven. WordPress runs well and you can install a WordPress site in just minutes. I love that their tech support agents understand WordPress and frequently share tips.

Their technical support service is best. If you are a “newbie” you will appreciate their non-tech talk guidance. Experience users will appreciate how truly knowledgeable their techs are. They have saved the day for me more than once!
