Run console application on host server

I have created a C # console application that uses a class HttpListener

on some random port. The application listens for HTTP requests and performs some mySQL database operations according to the request details.

At this point, I want to upload this application and DB to the host server. What would be the best practice for this?

  • should I convert the .exe file to .aspx handling http requests on port 80? (my intuition told me that a console app would run faster than an .aspx page, but that might not be right)
  • should i convert it to windows service? Is it possible? Is there any reason? If I do, can I run it on the web hosting server?

Thanks for the help!

Best mark is Windows services, it always runs when the server is running. The web project will only work when you have a request for a page in the project, because you have your own web server, it will be a little strange.
