PHP Hosting

A web hosting that uses and supports the PHP programming language is called PHP hosting. Almost all PHP hosting providers offer inexpensive plans using the LAMP (Linux operating system, Apache server, Mysql database, and PHP programming language) structure. PHP stands for Hypertext Preprocessor and it is an open source web development language. Open source indicates that PHP is free; its commands are written in HTML and are executed on the server side. It was originally designed for web development to produce dynamic web pages. For that, the PHP code is to be embedded into the HTML document. Then it would be interpreted by a web server with a PHP processor module which in turn generates the web page document. If you have experience with programming languages like Perl and C, then you can work with PHP very easily as it was generated from those languages.

PHP hosting is well suitable for both the beginners and experienced developers. In case of beginners, it is an easy language to work and to understand. For the developers, PHP hosting provides improved features and applications. While considering the cost, PHP hosting is one of the most affordable hosting plans available since it is an open source technology. To build their websites, the users are provided with complete source code for free of cost by PHP hosting. So far, PHP has hosted around 20 million web domains. PHP code is processed in command line mode to generate program output and it also functions as graphical application.
