Why Choose Linux?

If in doubt, choose a Linux hosting plan.

Linux is the most used operating system for Web servers. There are, of course, a variety of reasons for this, but the most frequently cited are stability and security. Linux servers rarely, if ever, need to be re-booted and Linux is less prone to security holes than Windows.

Unless you have a need for certain Windows specific features like ASP, MS SQL or Access, Web Host Canada recommends a Linux hosting plan.

***NOTE***
Your desktop computer system has nothing to do with your choice of servers. In other words, just because you have a Windows computer, you don't need to put your website on a Windows server.
