WordPress托管比较，第2部分：WordPress.com和VPS

In part 1 of this WordPress hosting series, I showed you the differences and benefits of four different solutions. In this second part I’ve prepared a screencast in which I show you how to set up a WordPress.com based site, and I install WordPress on a VPS (virtual private server).

在本WordPress托管系列的第1部分中，我向您展示了四种不同解决方案的区别和好处。 在第二部分中，我准备了一个截屏视频，其中向您展示如何设置基于WordPress.com的网站，以及如何在VPS(虚拟专用服务器)上安装WordPress。

WordPress.com (WordPress.com)

As you can imagine, WordPress.com requires the least time. Most of it is pre-configured, and you are done in about two minutes. Once inside, you will notice you are fairly limited in modifying your theme. There is a select number of themes, and simple stuff like customizing your template requires a paid upgrade. So does a custom domain, and you have to pay to get rid of the ads. But, it’s fast and easy and if you want it to simply work without any hassle this is a good choice.

您可以想象，WordPress.com需要最少的时间。 其中大多数已预先配置，大约两分钟即可完成。 进入内部后，您会发现修改主题的能力有限。 有一定数量的主题，简单的东西(如自定义模板)需要付费升级。 自定义域也是如此，您必须付费才能摆脱广告。 但是，它既快速又容易，如果您希望它简单地工作而没有任何麻烦，这是一个不错的选择。

If you want a quick look at the end result, this is the site used in the screencast:

VPS (VPS)

For the VPS how-to I used DreamHost, which offers a fairly extensive VPS service. And, there’s a free trial for a week for both a web VPS and a MySQL VPS. Setting up the VPS took a bit more time, partly because of the somewhat confusing DreamHost control panel. And since I used a live site, I also had to wait for the DNS to propagate.

对于VPS的使用方法，我使用了DreamHost ，它提供了相当广泛的VPS服务。 而且，Web VPS和MySQL VPS都有为期一周的免费试用。 设置VPS花费了更多时间，部分原因是DreamHost控制面板有些混乱。 由于我使用的是实时站点，因此我还必须等待DNS传播。

But in the end I got it working in about 30 minutes. It could be faster, but I use my own DNS management service which requires a bit more setup and waiting (and wading through all the options in the control panel).

但是最后，我在大约30分钟的时间内完成了工作。 它可能会更快，但是我使用自己的DNS管理服务，该服务需要更多的设置和等待(并费尽所有时间来访问控制面板中的所有选项)。

The site used in the screencast, HIPAA HQ, is a live site that I have in development. If you visit the link now you will see the real site (which you will see again in part 3 of this series, on a shared hosting provider).

截屏视频中使用的站点HIPAA HQ是我正在开发的实时站点。 如果您现在访问该链接，您将看到真实的站点(在共享托管服务提供商的本系列文章的第3部分中将再次看到该站点)。

But, I made a brief DNS switch while doing the tutorial, so you can actually see the DreamHost version “in action”. Enjoy!

但是，在进行本教程时，我做了一个简短的DNS切换，因此您实际上可以看到“正在使用”的DreamHost版本。 请享用！
