About Windows Hosting
Windows hosting is provided on a Microsoft Windows environment. People usually use Windows hosting since it enables them to use Microsoft technologies such as ASP and ASP.NET, in addition to Microsoft SQL servers. If you have no need for these technologies, you are probably better off hosting on an UNIX platform, since it costs less, and is the most reliable and popular platform for hosting Web sites.

These days, a Windows host would most typically host sites using the Windows 2000 platform. This is an excellent and reliable platform, especially when compared to its predecessor, Windows NT, which was not very highly regarded. Many major sites now use Windows hosting with ASP pages, and if you are looking for a good web development environment, Windows hosting is definitely worth investigating.
