- Web Site Design Essential to Business
-
Whatever business you're in, it's essential to have a presence on the World Wide Web. Your business web site moves your company into the global economy and provides your customers or industry with the information and service that they're seeking. Without a web site, a business loses its competitive edge; many potential clients either search the Web when seeking a company with which to do business, or review a company's web site prior to making their final selection.
Although a Web presence is essential, few companies have the in-house expertise necessary to undertake web site design or web hosting. Unless a company is heavily into e-commerce, it typically doesn't have technical personnel on staff. As a result, businesses must contract out services ranging from registering a domain name to web site design to web hosting. Read more... - Reasons To Change Your Web Hosting Provider

Anybody who decides to get a web hosting service or facility for their website will also soon be faced with the tough question of what server they will need. Will their website be run by a Windows server operating system or will they prefer to go for a Unix system? Typical Windows servers will run on Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP, while Unix servers could be Linux or Open BSD to name just two. The truth is that both systems have there pros and cons. If site stability and uptime are critical for you and your new website, then Unix should be your choice because they are generally thought to be superior in stability. Windows have the disadvantage that they usually require rebooting much more often. Still Windows are miles ahead when it comes to ease of use. A Windows server operating system will generally be much easier to operate and administer than its’ Unix counterpart. On the other hand, Unix, even with its’ stability may not end up being so user-friendly, especially for non-techies. There is also a price to pay for the extra stability which is evident in Unix systems. Usually Unix machines will require their software to be updated on a very regular basis. All in all, Unix server operating systems are favored over windows as they are widely considered to be more stable. Still if truth be told, when both systems are correctly installed, there is really very little difference and they will give you basically the same results. In effect this does not make this an easy decision to reach. In fact this is the main factor that complicates the issue, causing even more confusion and making it very difficult for the webmaster to make a decision either way. However for many, the final answer to the question of which server operating system is preferable, is quite often made by analyzing and comparing the costs of both and going with the more affordable option.
