]]> Comment on Justhost vs Bluehost: Are you making the wrong choice? by William Pitt http://www.hostingtopic.com/justhost-vs-bluehost-web-hosting/comment-page-1/#comment-122 William Pitt Wed, 02 Sep 2009 05:53:30 +0000 tag:webhostcomparison.org://5e613b339d2d2fc90b98adf4d90f31eb#comment-122 I was a member of bluehost and had to switch for one reason. They do not support wildcard SSL. When you have many subdomains and want to secure all of them you have no options with bluehost and they wont allow you to setup a third party wildcard SSL also. So, I had to cancel my service and the cancellation was quite easy. I could call the billing and they were more than happy to refund my money. I switched to justhost and realized that they are not as great as bluehost. Justhost service and all is great but they just cant match bluehost. Also, their control panel is slow and I have heard complains on other forums which said their servers are generally slow and down for long periods of time but I did not see that yet. The control panel does not have as many options as bluehost. They do not have webdisk and secure webdisk options which bluehost offers. Justhost offers FTP for file transfer which is not secure. If you want to use SFTP you need to activate SSH which is $20/year. Bluehost offers this for free. The price for dedicated IP is the same for both the companies. But if you want a SSL certificate bluehost offers Comodo CA for 45$/year while justhost offers rapidssl for 65$/year. One last thing - Although Justhost claims unlimited everything, if you read the terms of Justhost they have a clause "We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to discontinue service to any customer with a website or other hosted data that takes up more than 10% of the server resources and/or 10% of the server's CPU." http://www.justhost.com/terms-and-conditions?hidenav I checked the same and bluehost's terms and conditions seem more friendly http://www.bluehost.com/cgi/info/terms.html Although both these companies are on the top, I would say bluehost is better than justhost. I still did not see a reason for justhost to be awarded “Best of the year”. I was a member of bluehost and had to switch for one reason. They do not support wildcard SSL.
