I use DB on regular basis to host static sites for clients so that it makes easy to change anything and ask to client check. I use 'Public' folder to do that. Colloboration with client becomes super fast and easy.
Now I researched a lot on google on hosting php site there. But didn't found anything. I need to upload small changes to server to show client and the process is again and again.
What you guys recommend as a good solution?
