First developed in 1995, PHP has consistently grown and evolved. Depending on whose stats you look at, up to 80% of the worlds websites run on PHP. PHP is used by small players as well as massive web projects such as Facebook and Wikipedia.
PHP is designed from the ground for creating dynamic websites and web applications. PHP plugs directly into popular web servers providing a fast and stable platform.
PHP is constantly being developed and improved by a large international team. The language is becoming faster, more structured and with more tools rolled into the core rather than relying on plugins.

Programmers can get into philosophical debates about the merits of one software development platform over another. We have not chosen PHP for philosophical reasons. There are other powerful, well supported programming languages and platforms available.
Often software companies in New Zealand will build applications in a range of programming languages and software development platforms. A broader range of programming languages makes it possible to take on business from more customers, which is great from the software companies point of view. It is not so good from the customers point of view, as the developers will have less specialised skill.
We decided from day one to specialise in PHP, not because it is the only choice, but by making a choice to specialise we can offer customers the most expertise in a narrow field rather than being jacks of all trades. By specialising we deliver code faster, with less bugs, than companies that offer a broad range of programming languages.
