What platform or operating system (OS) will my new web
site use? |

SiteTurn offers packages
to suit the needs of all businesses and individuals
looking to enhance their presence on the Internet. We
offer hosting on both Windows 2000 and Linux platforms,
at no additional charge to our clients. |
|
|
|
Q.
Which platform is right for me, Windows or Linux? |
|
This depends on what applications you
plan to use on your web site. For example, if you need
a database driven web site, you can choose either PHP/MySQL
combination under Linux or an ASP/Access combination
under Windows 2000. The trend is for solutions to be
supported in both platforms. For example, we support
Microsoft FrontPage, one of the most popular web site
editors on the market, on both Linux and Windows 2000. |
