Linux is amongst the most popular Operating Systems for servers. There are many different distributions that use exactly the same core, but the majority have a number of things in common - they're 100 % free to use, which minimizes the total cost of the web hosting service due to the fact that license fees won't be included in what you have to pay; they are very easy to maintain; and last, but not least, they are significantly more secure in comparison with competitor OSs, because random files, particularly virus-infected ones, just can't be executed on the hosting server. That way, you’ll be able to enjoy a reliable service and spend the time creating and advertising your web sites, not being concerned about basic safety issues. A lot of Linux-based machines use the Apache server to deal with the HTTP traffic, since this software is extremely quick and is also easy to maintain and personalize in accordance with the needs of the hosting provider. A Linux hosting server with Apache is the perfect software environment for your websites and it's not at all a coincidence that numerous popular script-driven applications available on the market require LAMP, that symbolizes Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
