How to Delegate Access to Your Bluehost Account

If you’re looking to grant someone access to your Bluehost account—whether it’s a developer, a support technician, or a migration team—you can do so easily by adding them as a user with specific permissions.

This guide walks you through the exact steps to delegate access securely using Bluehost’s User Roles & Permissions feature.


Why Delegate Access to Your Bluehost Account?

Bluehost allows you to invite other users to your account without sharing your password. By assigning roles such as Admin or Tech, you control what level of access they get—great for website migrations, support, or development work.
