Bluehost web hosting is informing us of web server upgrades and migration to new data center. We are expecting the server migration at 27th March, and its going to be a new data center expansion, with improved temperature controls to ensure the best server operation environment and with improved security. We are being informed early, two days in advanced, and got some time to perform our own site backup. PS. bluehost does offers automated website backup service that users can subscribe to.
Bluehost support will carry out the web hosting account migration, hardware upgrades and migration. 1 to 3 hours of downtime is expected for this server migration process.

“Dear Bluehost Customer,
Bluehost has completed construction on our new data center expansion, complete with advanced temperature control, custom server racks and dozens of improvements designed to help us provide you with higher quality service. We will be moving all customer servers into the new center over the next few weeks.
This expansion allows us to continue to manage all hardware alongside our Technical Support team and System Administrators, here in Provo, Utah. Our experience has shown that hands-on control over all aspects of your hosting is the best method of ensuring excellence.
The Bluehost System Administrators will physically move your server (containing the hosting account: bluehostreview.org) into the new data center between 9 PM, March 27th and 5 AM March 28th (MDT), during low traffic periods. We will work to ensure you experience as little downtime as possible and, to that end, we will take the opportunity to perform any needed hardware maintenance or upgrades. We expect the process to take 1 to 3 hours.
These changes are a reflection of Bluehost’s continued drive toward security, stability and reliability. If you have any questions, our world-class support representatives will be happy to help. Just call us anytime, toll-free at (888) 401-4678.“

Is bluehost hosting having issue/problem lately? Why is their server downtime increased dramatically, and the bluehost technical support team is so hard to be reach? What is the caused for this bluehost problems?
I having difficulties to get connected to bluehost live chat, and the fact is that their waiting queue is taken too long. Even after you are connected to available live chat support, they are too busy and expect to be serve slowly as well. What’s wrong with bluehost lately??
I was told that the server that i am using is having hard disk RAID crash… they not sure what caused this server problem but they are investigating on it. They get the hardware replace, and website restored, thanks that bluehost performed server backup earlier. Following few days, my website is still having some downtime problem occasionally, and the cause is still unknown.
I understood & told by bluehost support that they are upgrading their servers.. its a major server hardware upgrading and lots of servers are involved. Is this mean most of bluehost technical team are too busy with the server upgrading work, and no time to perform their routine to maintain the server in good condition??
Fact is that, during the server upgrading process, the downtime should be keep to the minimum. And thus not causing lots more other problem to customer. If customers having problem they will go bugs the support team, and causing the support team to be even more tight up with their work.
