Linux Hosting – Cheap, Affordable and Secure way to host your website

Once your website is ready you need to search for a hosting company and if you have developed your website using PHP then you need Linux Hosting Server to host your web pages. You have a small business website then you don’t need to spend too much on your hosting disk space and bandwidth. But you are running a big ecommerce website, movies and music website then you need large disk space and good bandwidth.

Linux is an open source so web hosting companies don’t need to use licensed software to start hosting service. That’s the main reason Linux hosting is cheap compare to windows hosting. Also Linux is an open source so you can customize your need and it provide secure connection compare to windows hosting. Linux hosting comes up with different variation in plans like Dedicated, Virtual, Managed, Unmanaged and Shared. For a small business web site shared hosting is better choice because maintaining a dedicated server cost you much. But dedicated server is good choice for e-commerce website because they have large database of their products, user login information, shopping cart etc. Dedicated hosting partitioned in Managed and Unmanaged hosting, in manage hosting your server housed in to your hosting company they are responsible for smoothing running of your website but in unmanaged hosting you have to monitor your server and you are only responsible for the performance of your server.
