    Linux is generally more secure than Windows. Even though attack vectors are still discovered in Linux, due to its open-source technology, anyone can review the vulnerabilities, which makes the identification and resolving process faster and easier.

    In every way, the Linux server outperforms the Windows-based server in terms of server security, stability, freedom of choice, hardware compatibility, and cost-effectiveness. Windows is a common desktop operating system (or so novices believe), and Linux is the best server operating system.

    Most web hosting service providers offer two kinds of hosting: Linux hosting and Windows hosting. In general, Linux hosting refers to shared hosting, the most popular hosting service in the industry. In fact, most of the websites are now hosted using Linux hosting due to its affordable price and flexibility.

    Linux hosting is compatible with PHP and MySQL, which supports scripts such as WordPress, Zen Cart, and phpBB.

    Windows hosting, on the other hand, uses Windows as the servers' operating system and offers Windows-specific technologies such as ASP, .NET, Microsoft Access and Microsoft SQL server (MSSQL).

    Hello,

    First you need to work on your requirements, if you want to build some asp.net or windows based application then Windows hosting or OS would right for you. For any other websites like PHP, WordPress, etc Linux is the best choice.

    Linux provides excellent speed and security, but Windows provides excellent simplicity of use, allowing even non-technical users to operate efficiently on home computers. Many corporate businesses utilise Linux as a server and operating system for security reasons, whereas Windows is mostly used by business users and gamers.
