In this section I will walk you through the step by step process in order to get your new Bluehost account up and running in no time.
With certain hosting packages, we can set up multiple websites on the same hosting account if your plan is to manage more than one website. Your domain/s, email addresses like yourname@yourdomain.com, database settings, and much more will be managed through this hosting account.

Visit Bluehost
From the Bluehost home page top menu, you can navigate to Hosting Shared Hosting
Click here to create a Bluehost.com hosting account!
Select Your Plan
There are 4 hosting plans available, starting from as little as USD $2.75p/mo for the Basic plan. Option 2 which is the Plus plan will cost $4.95 per month, and include more features like Unlimited websites, unlimited storage and much more.
If you are serious about privacy then I suggest to opt for Choice Plus or Pro package due to their Domain Privacy options. Domain privacy is where the hosting company will not make your domain details publicly available which in turn helps to eliminate cold calls and spam emails.
