Because C# is a very good language. How many security holes have been found in the asp.net stack vs the php stack? I recall seeing a php security issue on reddit or news.y about once a month (anecdotal of course). But you don't have those problems with asp.net. Yes php provides simplicity in the language but complexity in the configuration. You have to be pretty handy with *nix to get it all working right. Remember facebook showing all it's code to the world? Asp.net windows configuration can be easier especially if you have a windows background. In the end though, if you know php use that. If you know python use that.
