| Customer Service |
The customer service at Bluehost has only gotten better over time and they are now one of our top 3 picks for outstanding customer service. They are not only staffed 24/7x365 to handle email, phone and chat requests but these service representatives are the smartest we’ve found so far. One advantage that their staff has is that they are completely trained up on all of the customization BlueHost has put into their control panel & hardware environments. The enhanced stability of those environments means that the customer service representatives can move quickly and efficiently through any task that is asked of them.
Another advantage that Bluehost has over other companies is that they compensate their service representatives very well, which in turn means a more satisfied, focused and amiable agent for you to work with.
