Bluehost在官方主頁上公布了Bluehost與其他主流虛擬主機的對比信息，雖然有點自夸嫌疑不過，Bluehost提供的數據是公正的，不妨看看對比一下，知道都有那些優點與不足，我們將陸續把他們的數據依次公布。
Bluehost虛擬主機和IXWebHosting虛擬主機配置對比詳情如下：
| 服務器環境 |
| IXWebHosting |
Apache 1.3.34 PHP/5.1.2 DAV/1.0.3 mod_perl/1.29 mod_ssl/2.8.25 OpenSSL/0.9.7h (Linux version 2.6.19.2-UP – Red Hat Linux release 7.3 (Valhalla)) |
| Bluehost |
CentOS4 – Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.28 OpenSSL/0.9.7a PHP-CGI/0.1b. PHP/5.1.6 |
| Why this Counts |
服務器環境是網站穩定有效運行的保證. 也是服務器是否安全的重要關鍵條件, 也是一個服務器是否安全，是否容易被黑客入侵的重要參數。（一般來說，采用環境參數越高就越安全，美國虛擬主機評測導購網） |
| Script 安全 |
| IXWebHosting |
User scripts run as httpd:httpd, leaving your scripts prone to attack by other users on the same server.(安全，確實是目前IXwebhosting的詬病，美國虛擬主機評測導購網） |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost’s scripts run using user:user based permissions, which means your scripts and files are as secure as Linux itself. |
| Why this Counts |
The user:group permissions running for an individual script tell us just how secure that server really is. Ideally, you want your server to use user based permissions to keep hacking attempts to a minimum.(確實Bluehost做的更充分,美國虛擬主機評測導購網） |
| 內存大小 |
| IXWebHosting |
Memory is scarce for IXWebHosting’s servers, at 2 Gigabytes, which is probably maxing out the server capability. Quite something when you can purchase a laptop with that amount at your local Costco.(IxWebhosting采用的內存2GB在目前并不出色） |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost servers are equipped with between 4 and 8 Gigabytes of RAM. |
| Why this Counts |
內存當然越高越好，采用的高內存的虛擬主機空間更快更好 |
| SSH Access |
| IXWebHosting |
SSH is available through IXWebHosting.. |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost offers SSH free of charge on all accounts. |
| Why this Counts |
SSH (Secure SHell) is a command line level of access to the server. It’s uses stretch past the standard control panel, and allow a special level of access to databases, Python interpreters, and much much more. This extra level of access makes many hosts skittish, and most won’t take the extra precautions necessary to offer the service.(不可否認，有SSH總比沒有好^_^） |
| 獨立 IP |
| IXWebHosting |
IXWebHosting’s system setup requires every account to have a dedicated IP, which can be both a boon and a bust depending on your application. However, they do offer eight free with their main plan.(IXwebhosting雖然免費提供給大家8個獨立IP地址，確實很棒） |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost $30/year. |
| Why this Counts |
獨立IP有很多好處. 顯著的好處有：許多搜索引擎將給具有獨立IP地址的網站更高的分數譬如Goolge pr的分數也是如此. 獨立IP地址也是你購買使用SSL的必要條件，也是經濟商務網站必要選擇 （30$/year的價位還算可以，美國虛擬主機評測導購網） |
| 備份回覆 |
| IXWebHosting |
IXWebHosting provides a backup restore service for no charge. |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost 將不收取任何費用，無論是備份還是回覆. What’s more, backups are taken and kept daily, weekly, and monthly for maximum protection against data loss. |
| Why this Counts |
Your data is the one thing that’s specific to you on the internet. It’s value can be incalculable, and losing any portion can be catastrophic. However, most web hosts will actually charge you to restore your own data, whether or not it’s your fault the data was lost in the first place. This provides an extra dime, but is absolutely ridiculous from our principled standpoint.（Bluehost虛擬主機備份恢復服務確實不錯） |
| 域名注冊 |
| IXWebHosting |
IXWebHosting is their own registrar. They charge $19.95/year for new .com domains, and varying amounts for other types.（19.95$有點貴） |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost utilizes FastDomain to register and control domain names, a company we created to offer superior control and service. Additional domains are $10/year. Domain Privacy is offered free of charge. |
| Why this Counts |
You pay a yearly fee to hold on to your domain name. You should also have the ability to modify and control it as you please. Every web host has a registrar, but not all registrars are created equal. Many do not give you the control or access you need to do what you want with your site（確實如此，很多虛擬主機.提供的域名注冊服務都是第一年免費而續費的時候將收費且價格往往高於市場價，而Fastdomain虛擬主機提供的是完全永遠免費的域名） |
| 控制面板 |
| IXWebHosting |
IXWebHosting uses an old version of the HSphere control panel. Unfortunately, all of their systems are built on that platform, so upgrading will not be an easy process. Full control is not possible using the current version. （沒用過這款控制面板，不知道如何，CPanel是公認的最好是事實） |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost uses cPanel, an industry standard in hosting backend control technology. |
| Why this Counts |
Your control panel is like your car dashboard. You have control, you get feedback, or you get isolated. The control panel you use should be capable of handling what ever you throw at it, and it is important that you take it out for a test drive before you buy. （目前都是采用的Cpanel11，非常易用且為主流控制面板,美國虛擬主機評測導購網） |
| 額外的環境 |
| IXWebHosting |
IXWebHosting’s control panel does not offer much in the way of additional features. They do offer a few auto installs, such as phpBB2 and OSCommerce, but if it is options you want, look elsewhere. |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost offers Fantastico, an auto installation utility with over 35 scripts available for instant usability. A formmail script and several others are available as well. |
| Why this Counts |
Extras are the whipped topping and cherries on a nice, cold sundae. They entail pre-made scripts that professional programmers have made available free of charge, so that you can have a good looking, functional website at the click of a button. Unfortunately, not all hosts are well equipped, so if you don’t know exactly what you want yet, or how to program it, you’ll want a host that can offer these extras. |
| MySQL |
| IXWebHosting |
IXWebHosting does not offer any databases on their base plan, making true development impossible. |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost 提供 50 MySQL databases |
| Why this Counts |
Databases are the core of any interactive website. They contain product catalogs, blog entries, customer information, and the list goes on. The more you have available, the more you can do.（不過這點就不公平了，Bluehost不能拿IXWebhosting低價位的虛擬主機和自己的高價位的主機比較，美國虛擬主機評測導購網） |
| 可建站點（附件域名個數) |
| IXWebHosting |
On the base plan, you can have up to one addon domain.. |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost 可建立無限站點 |
| Why this Counts |
Addon domains offer the ability to host more than one domain name on your hosting account. These could be family websites, aliases of your main domain, or completely separate business entities. The ability to house these additional domains can maximize the cost effectiveness of your web experience. （ |
| 子域名 |
| IXWebHosting |
IXWebHosting offers 100 subdomains on their base plan. |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost offers Unlimited subdomains on every account. |
| Why this Counts |
Subdomains are extensions of your domain. Without subdomains, del.icio.us would be just icio.us, which no one would ever remember. These can take the form of whatever you like, such as mail.yourdomain.com or office.yourcompany.com.(對一些商務網站比較有用，一般支持子域名20個就足夠使用了） |
| 可建立的Email帳戶 |
| IXWebHosting |
Luckily, IXWebHosting does allow the use of email accounts on your addon domains |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost’s control panel offers the ability to have email accounts on your addon and subdomains. |
| Why this Counts |
Oddly enough, some control panels do not give you the ability to create or use email accounts on your additional domains. This severely limits use of your domains for any useful purpose, such as business transactions. Be sure to know what you need before you buy… |
| SSL 證書使用 |
| IXWebHosting |
Unfortunately, even with a dedicated IP, private SSL certificates are not available through IXWebHosting. |
| Bluehost |
Bluehost 提供獨立SSL $45/year, 提供免費安裝服務. |
| Why this Counts |
Private SSL Certificates are extremely important for anyone considering running an online store or some type of data exchange. Without one, your customers would not even consider purchasing your goods and services, as all credit card and identifying information they submit will be plainly visible to anyone wanting to see. Most certificates are equal in intrinsic value, but most hosts will play on your insecurity to gain a little extra.（Godaddy提供的SSL服務14.99$/year，確實對比起來更超值） |
