Hidden costs

  • Steep renewal price increases after the intro term (e.g. Starter $3.99/mo intro renews at $9.99-$15.99/mo)
  • Free domain is only free for the first year, then charges standard domain renewal price
  • Domain privacy is free only for the first year on Business+ plans, then billed annually
  • SiteLock/backup/CodeGuard style add-ons and Pro Email upsells prompted during and after checkout
  • Longer contract terms (36-month) required to get the lowest advertised intro price

Runs these stacks well

  • WordPress (self-hosted)

    Bluehost is a long-standing WordPress.org-recommended host with one-click installs.
