BlueHost and HostMonster
Hi All,
Does anyone have experience with bluehost.com and hostmonster.com companies. I wanted to buy their web hosting services, but before I proceed I wanted to know if any of you guys have experience with them. I wanted to know how is their uptime, service, support etc.
I have really some bad experiences with my previous hosts. I will tell you more about them in my next post.
Have A Nice Day!
Bye

You can use the search function of WHT to find the reviews that maid about them. Also if you are looking for a reseller hosting I think they don't provide.

Hmm.. I don't know how I managed not to notice this the first time.
Thread moved to Web Hosting Forum. You stand better chance to get more feedback here.

Hello,
I host a few of my sites on HostMonster (they are personal, but I will send you the link of it to test the speed of the site upon request). I can tell you that HostMonster has had great uptime, and I honestly cannot remember the last time I was down in the 8 months I have been with them. Their support is top-notch when I do use it (I rarely have to use it, since I don't require that much support), and they are professional and courteous (both on the telephone and online when I spoke to HostMonster Support). As stated, BlueHost is essentially the same company as HostMonster, but I chose HostMonster for its offers at a price that I couldn't get from BlueHost.
I am a very pleased customer with HostMonster, and I highly recommend them! The only drawback I can think of is the fact that they only allow a maximum of 100 MySQL Databases to be created. The downside to that is you can't get any more than that, and you can't even opt to pay to get more. However, I am not even close to using 100 MySQL Databases, so there's no problem there.
Good luck with your hosting venture!

Thank you all for your responses, I wanted to use it to host the websites I design for my clients so I guess it will be enough for me. Most of my sites are static and only 10% needs a database so I guess 100MB file size for MySQL database is big enough for most of the website needs.

About Blue Host and Host monster
Hi
The only advantage is that they have only one single plan,so it is not confusing. But as far as features are concerned,both are the same but different brand names.

Their support is very good in my opinion. I currently have an account with them for storing uploads.

I used to have an account with Bluehost, but it was a while ago so I don't know how relevant the information is, although I was very satisfied with support och service. My biggest concern was the bad bandwidth performance - but that may be because I'm not from US.
