The Window Hosting means hosting of web services that runs on the Windows operating system, whereas Linux Hosting means hosting of web services that runs on the Linux operating system.
If you want to host your ASP.Net or ASP files, then you definitely need Window Hosting instead of Linux Hosting. Today, most of the Window Hosting is referring to Window Server 2003 as operating system in the server.
Well, if you want to save some cost, you can go for PHP with MySQL, and you can choose either Window Hosting or Linux Hosting.
Both of these operating systems provide the utmost in stability, security and are ideal for server use in hosting.
Why is there a difference in pricing between Windows Hosting and Linux Hosting? The reason is Window requires licensing fees. Linux is open source software which is maintained by individuals who are not getting paid for their contributions. The developers at Microsoft are getting paid. And as such to run the Windows software requires fees being paid to them. Therefore the reason for the difference in pricing.
In term of reliability, actually it really does not matter whether you choose the Windows 2003 operating system to host your web sites or a Linux based solution.
In the past people used to use Linux because of its increased reliability over Windows. But since the Windows 2003 release of their server software Microsoft has definitely closed the gap in this area.
