In my oppinion every programming language scales. It is more important which language you catch up fastest.
I would recommend PHP or Python.
PHP is not the nicest language but it will you give you results in very short time.
Python is my personal favorite, it is, in my oppinion, the best programming language for beginners.
A third choice could be Javascript, you need it on the client anywhay, but I am not so sure if it is suited for a beginner to use on the server.

- huhtenberg 15y agoYou are approaching this from the wrong end. Focus on getting the right person who has real life experience writing scalable backends in the area of your interest. It does not matter to the slightest if he happens to do that with MS technologies or PHP.
- jwdunne 15y agoWell, Microsoft has a range of products which you can use and, from my memory, at least 2 languages (VB and C#) which can be used for web development (can F# be used in web development? I'm sure it should be possible). My problem with these languages is that it pretty much ties you down with Windows. Of course, there is Mono but I'm not sure if that's as stable as what MS have to offer. That being said: that's my opinion. I think you should stop worrying about the technologies your using and just write code in it. It's only way to learn. You'll soon discover what works best for you.
