Lots of major web hosting companies offer Linux web hosting and with so many people using it around the world anything that you can do with Windows hosting can also be done with Linux web hosting. Many of the most popular script packages on the web today are available in both Windows and Linux web hosting versions, with the Linux web hosting version generally being more stable and having all of the same features as their Windows cousins. This is of course my opinion and I am sure that there are some who may disagree.

In April, Eleven2 Hosting expanded its corporate management team, through an appointment of a new Customer Service Director, Cory Beavers, a hosting industry veteran.

PHP Security in a shared hosting environment

Thu, 14 Feb 2008 16:07:51 GMT
