Windows Website Hosting
If you use Microsoft applications like ASP, ASP.Net, SQL Server database or Access database for building your website, then you need a webhosting company that support Windows Web hosting. Windows web hosting is a big area of confusion among people who are new to website development and hosting. An important thing to note is that just because you used Windows software to build your website, you do not need Windows Web Hosting. Most major web hosts use Linux or Unix for web hosting - and this is not a problem, in fact it is actually a good thing, because linux and unix based webservers are much more stable than other operating systems.
Web pages are ultimately text files that use html or some variation thereof, and regardless of whether you generated your website pages using a windows software or not, it will work on Linux or Unix. But when it comes to using databases mentioned above, you definitely need a windows operating system and the IIS webserver from microsoft, and hence a windows web host for your website.
