Linux is an Operating System, which isn't that frequently used for desktop machines, but is among the most frequently used OSs for servers. It is totally free, so you will not have to pay any license charges as part of your website hosting payments. Linux is also regarded as being the most secure OS out there and because of the permissions that files have along with the file types that can be run, virus files that can infect an average computer system will simply not be executed on a Linux-based hosting server. Additionally, the Operating System is free, so it can be changed with no restrictions, so that it will satisfy the requirements of the website hosting provider and their clients. This also implies that unneeded software packages can easily be removed to make the OS lighter and a lot quicker, which can directly lead to a lot better server performance. A large number of Linux machines have the Apache web server installed on them, due to the fact that this program is also free, fast and reliable. It's the most widely used web server available and is an element of the LAMP bundle that lots of script applications, such as Joomla™ and WordPress, require. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
