          Neither one of the two languages is better then the other, just different. Which one you should pick depends more on your experience with them as well as the hosting environment that the blog portal is to be running in. If you need to host on Linux then ASP.net is out of the picture, if you also have Windows hosting then both languages can be used. I also agree with Dennis, why write a blog from scratch. You could use an already existing blog software and expand it where needed. That will probably be more cost effective.

            What is better? Use the language you understand.

              I know many options are available on both windows and linux environment but this is a project so it has to be developed from scratch... I also know it will be PHP if going to be on Linux and ASP.NET if going to be on Windows My question was, what if I have both options and I can write both languages then which language you'll prefer? which language will be fast in performance and better security, etc... Thanks, Jassim

                What are the requirements in terms of OS? Does it have to be Linux or can it be Windows? As the others have mentioned, both ASP.NET and PHP will both do just fine. If it is not known which OS is going to be hosting the blog portal, you can go with PHP since it can be used on both Linux and Windows, however, if for other reasons you go with ASP.NET, the only way you could have it work with Linux is to have it be compatible with the Mono Project. If you have other requirements for the project, factor them in as well.

                    The key word here is I. It doesn't matter what anyone else would choose; it is your project, choose what you are comfortable with.

                      sorry but I am not sure why you are coming here to answer a question that a client is paying you to answer. the general theme of answers is one I have to agree with. make the decision as to what works best for you. going down this path of one is better than does nothing but start these religious arguments of my programming language is better than yours. nothing really productive comes from them. sorry I know we are supposed to answer questions as best as possible but I don't like giving you a free answer for something that you possibly are being paid to research.
