Small business guide

Small business web hosting: choose for the site you run today

Most small business sites need reliability, simple management, backups, security basics, and support more than they need complicated server features.

Start with the job of the website

A local service site, a brochure site, a blog, and an online store have different needs. A simple business site can often start on managed WordPress hosting. A store needs stronger commerce tools and a careful backup plan.

Check support before you need it

Know how you can contact the host and whether your plan includes phone support. Bluehost currently reserves phone support for its Business and eCommerce Essentials WordPress plans.

Plan for recovery

Weekly backups are included in Bluehost's current WordPress lineup. For an active business site, decide whether weekly recovery points are enough for how often your content and orders change.

Do not overbuy

It is easy to pay for capacity you do not need. Start with realistic storage and traffic expectations, then upgrade when your site gives you a reason.
