There are quite a few options out there these days when it comes to web hosting. Once you’ve decided what sort of server package you want i.e. shared, reseller, VPS hosting or dedicated server, you must then decide which operating system you want to use on it. For the most part, both of the popular operating systems, both Windows and Linux will run the average website just fine, with no issues. The difference is however in the software that will be installed on the OS. Both Linux and Windows hosting have their own set of control panels and applications for facilitating the management of your website. The languages used on each system differ also with most PHP developers opting for Linux based systems and most ASP or .NET developers having to choose Windows hosting.
If you’re not looking to develop websites then the difference in operating system is negligible, just choose what you feel comfortable in using. If you’re after the extra reliability, I’d opt for Linux but Windows hosting is more than capable of running your website. You may find however that some software applications you’re used to on previous servers are not compatible with windows based web hosting solutions.

How Reliable Is Cheap Web Hosting
Posted on 06. Aug, 2009 by admin.
One of the many questions I get asked with regards to web hosting is exactly how reliable is cheap web hosting. You see the advertisements for the service often, hosting from literally dollars per month. Some even charge less than five bucks per year. Today, we ask ourselves what you really get for your money and do you really need to pay over the odds for web hosting or will a cheap web hosting provider give you everything you need when it comes to your hosting.
For the most part, cheap web hosting providers offer the exact same service as the more expensive providers out there. The only thing you really pay for with a premium provider is faster / higher quality support. You don’t pay for better hardware or bandwidth.
Most small hosting companies often provider a better level of support than higher end companies also as they have less clients to deal with and are not just level 1 techies working for a company offering services they know nothing about.

The domain name registration is a very simple process however you should know some basic information before starting the entire process. For getting a specific domain name, you will have to avail the services of domain registrars which are approved by ICANN or the International Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.
You can get the list of domain name resources from the internet before selecting any domain name registrar. Another thing which you should remember is that some domain name registrars are not in the list because they take hold for registering a domain name and finally sell the domain name for the accredited registrars. You also need to show some necessary documentation while applying for a domain name. The period of domain name registration can go up to 10 years.
Moreover, you also have to pay a price for domain name registration that may vary from registrar to registrar. You can always get the discount from the registrars. I recommend that you should know all details of the process of domain name registration because the more details you will have, the better you will be able to complete the entire process.
