Can bluehost web hosting company handle high traffic websites?

I want to create a blog and hopefully boost the traffic to it shortly. But was wondering how much traffic a bluehost hosting account can handle?

I haven't signed up for a hosting account with bluehost yet but was wondering what others experience was with hosting a high traffic blog on bluehost web hosting?

If you plan to host a high traffic website then no bluehost would not be able to handle the high traffic on their shared server accounts.

When you get high traffic you need a vps or dedicated server and I don't recommend blue host for hosting.

bluehost web hosting is okay for a small website that gets a little bit of website traffic in the beginning.

But once you start getting high traffic bluehost will ask you to move away from them and onto a vps or dedicated server.

I recommend you use hawkhost web hosting. Although still once you get a bunch of website traffic you'll need a vps server at the minimum and may even need a dedicated server once your website traffic picks up.
