Should I install WordPress Free Blogging Software on Linux Or Windows Web Hosting?

When you go to http://wordpress.org/ to get your free Blogging software, you will find you can install the WordPress Free Blogging Software or either a Linux Web Hosting Plan  or a Windows Hosting Plan as long as both web hosting plans have a access to set up a new mySQL database that the WordPress Bloggging software uses.

We recommend using the Linux Web Hosting Plan since permalinks can be set up using this string:  /%postname% which is not support in a windows install. Using the /%postname% permalinks means you can enter full words in your URL for each post which is good for Search Engine Optimization reasons.

Click on Linux hosting for plans that start at $6.95/month that support this free WordPress blogging software.
