Anyone else affected by the bluehost.com outage?

    My site inkart.net went down about 11:30 yesterday (Sunday) and it is still offline. I'm pretty much screwed at the moment. They don't have an ETA either.

    Until this bluehost has been average in uptime. Maybe there's a better company to host? Any suggestions for another? (please don't suggest your own - honest opinions only!)

    just checked your site and its up and running now...we suggest that you go with hostgator.com as they are fairly descent when it comes to eing up and running effectively...

    Or since it was such a minor downtime wait and see how thing are. I know that they have been doing some major updating lately. You might want to talk to support about it to get the full story as to what happened and if they anticipate any more in the near future. How long have you been with them?

    My sites have been down for the last 2 hours now. I called Bluehost support and they said that they're changing data centers or something and that they have previously notified me. Well, first they have not as I have backups of my mail on three different computers and then there is no ETA!!!!!????? Most of the search engines have already notified me about the site being offline so I'm really worried that I'll get screwed in the SERPs. I've been with bluehost for about 6 months and I'm definitely changing hosting provider. Has anybody else had similar issue with bluehost? What would be a good response from me at this time?
