Linux is amongst the most widely used OSs for servers. There are a number of different distributions which use the same core, but the majority have a number of things in common - they're absolutely free to use, which minimizes the total cost of the website hosting service since license fees shall not be included in what you'll have to pay; they are very easy to take care of; and last, but not least, they're a lot more protected compared with competitor Operating Systems, since random files, specifically virus-infected ones, simply can't be executed on the web server. That way, you will be able to enjoy a secure service and spend the time creating and promoting your web sites, not bothering with security problems. Many Linux-based machines use the Apache web server to handle the HTTP traffic, due to the fact that this software is extremely quick and is also effortless to maintain and modify as per the needs of the web hosting provider. A Linux web server with Apache is the ideal software environment for your websites and it's not at all a coincidence that numerous popular script-driven applications nowadays require LAMP, that stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
