FTP, PHP, Perl CGI-BIN access, SSI, .htaccess, telnet, SSH crontabs——if the terms appear to be unfamiliar to you, let us inform you that these are all the instruments that can translate your dream of an all-pervading website into reality. So if you have hired a commercial web host, make sure, your web host includes all these facilities in your package.
However, a renowned web host would NEVER put its repute at stake by not including these facilities in its package, especially the PHP website. Why is this so? What are the reasons that web hosts count so much on this feature? Let’s explain.
The PHP or Hypertext Processor can be briefly defined as a server side scripting language. It is XHTML 1.0 compatible and meets the W3C’s Web Accessibility Initiative requirements. When backed up by database as MySQL, the PHP offers you everything that a web host can imagine of.
1. PHP website is more than just another CMS—- PHP website can be the complete solution for any type of content management system with its highly customizable features and ability to provide a good framework for adding extra functionalities via modules. Be it an e-commerce site or an amateur family sites—-PHP makes the easiest, yet most efficient dynamic content management possible.
2. The requirements of typical web applications of e-commerce sites such as shopping carts and login systems can be met with PHP websites. It is particularly suitable for e-commerce because of its security features. PHP is armed with many levels of security to prevent malicious attacks.
3. The feature that makes PHP particularly popular with the web hosts is its connective abilities. PHP provides for an extensible system to support a number of interfaces such as XML, encryption, etc.
4. Another friendly feature that the web hosts love is: with PHP huge server interfaces, database interfaces and other modules are available. Not only it can load into Apache, IIS, Roxen, THTTPD and AOLserver, you can run it as a CGI module. It supports variety of database interfaces such as MySQL, MS SQL, Informix and Oracle and many others.
5. While, PHP boasts of commands similar to the high level programming language such as C++, its beauty lies in its simple syntax, functionality, and ease-of-use. Among all the server side languages, PHP has the maximum database connectivity. Because PHP itself features many predefined mySQL functions which other languages like Pearl or ASP doesn’t have, the database connectivity with PHP becomes a hassle free process. And thus, PHP-MySQL combination becomes the inevitable choice for most commercial web hosts.
So you know the reason, why web hosts today can’t do without a PHP website. The industry giants like Google.com, Mitsubishi, Redhat, MP3, Lycos, Ericsson and NASA recognize PHP as the first rate web language. According to the industry estimates, numbers of PHP web sites are growing at a rate of 20% per month. All these lead us to conclude one thing: PHP websites are here to stay….for long.
