Hostmonster Spaces have already spent a good few days, because previously tried Dreamhost space, so found some differences between the two.
1. 2 Spaces in-country visit almost the speed of the basic, ping values at around 200ms, the difference in the speed of host Dreamhost, which mainly reflected in the installation of a relatively large number of Wordpress plug-ins page to generate relatively long time. Dreamhost probably a server on site with a relatively large number of reasons for it!
2.Dreamhost can be customized content Hostmonster than many, Dreamhost more fit to be used as a reseller. Dreamhost each has a separate binding domain phpmyadmin, there is a separate SSH, can be configured at the server for each domain name on the path, but provides a more Hostmonster die, it's phpmyadmin there is only one root account, SSH is also the same, and worse compared to each domain name on the path on the server are automatically generated, for example, you bind
blog.AAA.com, it will automatically set its path for the / public_html / blog, but when you bind blog.BBB.com again, it was still the path / public_html / blog, which you can bind blog only a secondary domain name.
Php version of 3.Dreamhost can choose php4 or 5, but that can also Hostmonster Although self-selection, but to open an account at the time of the default php4 machines are up, and only give yourself email support@hostmonster.com
Requirements for the host, they will give you change, I made a message, give me the next day are good for.
4. Binding domain, Dreamhost can relax binding, and are first detected you Hostmonster domain NAME
SERVER are not ns1.hostmonster.com
ns2.hstmonster.com, if not, it will not let you bind, but also a lot of cases, even if you set up Well, you still do not add up, when there is a request the following support to help you manually bind information box, I found that as long as the hair many times, support will help you bind Well.
On 5.Dreamhost you have to solve the problem, are directly in the control panel information to support hair. And support many quick to reply you on the look he is not busy. And Hostmonster have 24-hour telephone hotline and online live
chat, they seem not to recommend consultative email questions. Hotline because international long-distance fight, so do not try, but live
chat chat about it on several occasions, almost always have the customer service online and immediately help me to solve the problem, which has done relatively well Hostmonster.
6.Dreamhost Whether or not to open up SSH functions are solved by yourself, but Hostmonster want to open the SSH feature, you have to fax or Email you a copy of the identity documents the past, I used the mobile phone making its own ID card, Email sent them, I am afraid they do not recognize Chinese characters, specially marked This is the Chinese ID card, about 1 hour, found that SSH can be used on account of the sign, but also not too slow.
7.Dreamhost at my trial a few days several times a page not found or unable to access the database of questions, but until now no Hostmonster a similar problem.
8.Dreamhost do not have CPU restrictions and Hostmonster have the biggest CPU occupancy rate of 20% limit, once you account for 20 percent of a person, the system will hang you 1min, but this limit can in fact still very understandable, Units 1 Host up to carry a lot of the site, if a site occupied by the CPU reached 20 percent, and that others do not have to spent.
Generally speaking, Hostmonster is a good virtual hosts, like Dreamhost Although there is a wide range imperfect place, but think about the exclusive host may encounter daily failures,
