Windows Web Hosting

      Microsoft Windows web server software is called Internet Information Server (IIS). Under this software, web pages can be created using ASP/ASP.NET, in addition to standardized web languages such as PERL. Due to its compatibility, a windows programmer using IIS and ASP, can leverage his or her knowledge and incorporate windows COM objects and data access directly into their web application. Also, MS Access and SQL Server are very easy to work with using ASP. The main drawback to this platform is price. It's generally more expensive than Unix or Linux web hosting. If you are absolutely certain that your website requires Microsoft-specific applications, such as ASP, ASP.Net, MS SQL Server or MS Access, use the Windows platform.
