Hi,

PHP Web Hosting is mostly provided on the Linux based servers. Linux provides good LAMP based server and its easy to implement, host and maintain the website.

If you are looking for PHP Web Hosting, then probably you are looking for Linux based hosting companies with PHP and MySqL support on their hosting servers.

In most of the cases PHP Web Hosting are much cheaper then .NET or Java based hosting services.

These days large number of websites are being developed in PHP and hosted on the Linux based hosting server.

While choosing PHP Web Hosting companies you should check following things:

a) Support for latest version of PHP

b) Support for latest Apache server

c) Cpanel or any other control panel to manage your domain such as creating email address.

d) Support timings: If you are running Business portal then check for technical support availability. You should go with the PHP Web Hosting companies providing 24x7 days supports.

Thanks
