This is not the Rails mailing list, this is the Ruby mailing list.

(Yes, there are lots of commercial apps in Rails, but I don’t know what  
‘bluehost’ is.)

Go to [http://rubyonrails.org/](http://rubyonrails.org/) and from there you can get information and  
links to the appropriate community sites that can help you out.

Check out [www.rubyonrails.org](http://www.rubyonrails.org), The Ruby On Rails website. It has a list  
of commerical applications written in RoR  
([http://www.rubyonrails.org/applications](http://www.rubyonrails.org/applications)). It also has a list of web  
hosting services that have RoR installed  
([Peak Obsession](http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/RailsWebHosts)).

If you have any other questions about Rails, there’s a Rails mailing  
list, a wiki, and other community involvement. See  
[Ruby on Rails — A web-app framework that includes everything needed to create database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern.](http://www.rubyonrails.org/community) for more info.

Good luck!

And, yes, it can be hosted on Bluehost. 🙂
