Shared hosting Do you want to have your own space on the Internet? With shared hosting you place or store your website/webpages on an EDPnet server, where also other websites are hosted. Thus, you share the EDPnet server with other customers. EDPnet offers you two types of shared hosting, namely Linux and Windows hosting. Which type would you like choose and what is exactly the difference between Linux and Windows hosting?

Alongside a difference in prices because of higher license costs for Windows hosting, there is also a difference in applications you are going to use to maintain your website.

If you have a static website (your webpages have an .html or .htm extension) and you have no further specific preferences, we advise you to take Linux hosting.

If you have a dynamic website or specific web applications (your website also has a database, forms, …), then the type of hosting depends on the type of programming language you are going to use to build your website.
