What is Linux hosting?

Linux hosting is web hosting on a server that runs the Linux operating system, usually with Apache-compatible web serving, PHP and MySQL, the stack most of the web's CMS and PHP software is written for. WebJi® Linux plans run on AlmaLinux-based servers with LiteSpeed Enterprise and NVMe storage.

"Linux" names the operating system, not the panel or the plan size. On shared Linux hosting, many accounts share one server's CPU, RAM and bandwidth, which keeps the entry price at ₹299 a month. If your code is ASP.NET or needs MS SQL Server, Linux is the wrong OS; see Windows hosting instead.

Webji Launch costs ₹299 a month, Webji Turbo ₹399 and Webji Scale ₹699, before 18% GST; paying for one or three years lowers the effective monthly rate. Launch billed yearly is ₹2,868 (₹239 a month), and billed for three years is ₹6,804 (₹189 a month). Turbo's three-year bill is ₹9,324 against ₹14,364 for 36 monthly payments (₹399 × 36), a saving of ₹5,040.

Pick by site count: Launch and Turbo host one website, Scale hosts unlimited domains. Turbo and Scale list unlimited NVMe storage, which still sits within fair-use limits on a shared server.

What can you run on Linux hosting?

Linux shared hosting runs any PHP application with a MySQL database, plus static HTML, and that covers most small-business and publishing sites. Long-running processes need a VPS, because shared accounts stop background daemons.

Common applications and how they run on WebJi® Linux shared plans
ApplicationOn Linux shared?Notes
WordPress and WooCommerceYesOne-click deploy; LiteSpeed caching helps on product pages

Four Linux habits to know before you upload a site

Linux servers treat file names as case-sensitive, enforce file permissions, read .htaccess rules and schedule tasks with cron; sites built on a Windows laptop most often break on the first of these. Each takes a minute to check before go-live.

  • Case-sensitive names: Logo.PNG and logo.png are different files, so a link that worked on Windows can 404 on Linux.
  • Permissions: folders normally 755 and files 644; wp-config.php and other secrets can be tighter.
  • .htaccess: LiteSpeed reads Apache rewrite rules, redirects and security headers as written; the .htaccess guide has working examples.
  • Cron: scheduled jobs such as backups or WooCommerce tasks use crontab syntax; see crontab examples for Linux.

Linux hosting vs Windows hosting

Choose Linux unless your code needs Microsoft: Linux plans start at ₹299 a month, while Windows plans with MS SQL start at ₹2,300 a year and exist for ASP.NET and .NET Framework sites. Speed depends on the server and caching, not on the OS label.

The longer comparison is in Linux vs Windows hosting. If you specifically want the cPanel dashboard, compare cPanel hosting; for Plesk on Linux, see Plesk hosting.

When to move from shared Linux hosting to a Linux VPS

Move to a Linux VPS when you need root access, a fixed amount of RAM, or software that runs as a background service. Typical triggers are a Node.js app, a Redis cache, a Docker container or a site whose CPU use keeps hitting the shared limit.

A Linux VPS server keeps the same OS, so code moves without changes. Free migration from another host is available subject to terms and approval.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which Linux distribution do WebJi® shared servers run?

The shared servers are AlmaLinux-based, a free rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux used widely by hosting companies. On shared hosting you do not manage the OS; if you need Ubuntu or Debian specifically, that is a VPS choice.

Which control panel comes with these Linux plans?

The Webji Launch, Turbo and Scale cards list ControlPanel.Systems with free SSL. If your team needs cPanel or Plesk specifically, those panels are sold as separate Linux plans; check the panel named on the order page before paying.

Is there a money-back guarantee on Linux hosting?

Most hosting plans carry a money-back guarantee on the first-term hosting fee, counted from service activation, and the window for your plan shows at checkout and on the invoice. Submit the request through billing inside that window and the refund returns to the original payment method. Domains, SSL certificates after issuance and delivered work are not refunded; the full scope is on the refund policy page.

Why does my image or page 404 on Linux but work on my PC?

Almost always a capital letter. Linux treats Photo.jpg and photo.jpg as two files, while Windows does not. Rename files to lower case and update the links, or match the exact case in your HTML.

How many websites can one Linux plan host?

Webji Launch and Webji Turbo host one website each; Webji Scale hosts unlimited domains, which suits agencies and people with several small sites. Email accounts follow the same split: 10 on Launch, unlimited on Turbo and Scale.
