E62 Is a Clinic on Web Hosting Trends Featuring Bluehost’s Chris Vanover

In E62 of Localogy’s This Week in Local podcast, co-host Mike Boland chats with Chris Vanover, Bluehost’s Senior Director of Product Management. Bluehost (part of Newfold Digital) is a hosting platform with a special focus on WordPress sites.

And Mike and Chris spend a significant portion of the episode geeking out on WordPress. The two also delve into the nuances of cloud hosting. What is it? And why is it important to the world of websites?

Earlier this month Bluehost launched Bluehost Cloud, bringing its customers into the world of cloud hosting. As Chris notes in the episode, cloud hosting utilizes distributed servers for security, performance, and load balancing.
