Linux is an Operating System, that is not that frequently used for desktop machines, but is one of the most frequently used OSs for web servers. It is free of charge, so you won't have to pay any license fees as part of your web hosting payments. Linux is additionally thought to be the most risk-free Operating System these days and because of the permissions which files have and the file types that can be run, virus files which could infect a regular PC will simply not be executed on a Linux-based hosting server. Additionally, the Operating System is 100 % free, so it can easily be changed with no limits, so as to match the requirements of the web hosting company and their clients. This also implies that unwanted software packages can easily be removed to make the Operating system lighter and faster, that can directly lead to far better server performance. A lot of Linux machines have the Apache web server installed on them, because this software is also free, fast and stable. It is the most popular web server out there and is part of the LAMP bundle that numerous script apps, like WordPress and Joomla™, require. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
