Bluehost introduces FastCGI
Bluehost introduces the option to switch on FastCGI in cpanel. This is another step to make Bluehost more competitve and offer their users an ever growing arsenal of useful tools to optimise their websites. In short FastCGI accelerates the apache web server performance hence will speed up your sites. If you want more information about FastCGI you can take a look at the abstract of “FastCGI – the forgotten treasure” by Peter Simmons or if you’re really geeky even read all of it!! If you want to take a look at the other features that Bluehost offers go ahead.

If you have light web pages, I don’t think FastCGI is going to make any difference. Of course if you have highly interactive forms with lots of scripts then FastCGI is a good bet.

I tried FastCGI on my website, its extremely effective.
Thanks to bluehost’s cheap web hosting I’m able to keep my site running at all times.
Thanks for the writeup and informing the customers,
Thanks,
