I'm planning to help coding a bitcoin related website and I'm currently learning javascript & PHP.
I chose to not learn python, because I thought it was harder to learn and there was less stuff to find online.
But whenever i browse on this forum it seems, that most bitcoin related websites are actually made in python.
Is there a particular reason for this or is it just personal preference?
Would you advise me to switch and rather concentrate on python?

Be very wary of relying on JavaScript for security on crypto sites. The site can change the JavaScript at any time unless you take unusual precautions, and browsers are not generally known for their airtight security.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

I think your choice of language depends on what problem you are trying to solve. A lot of sites in Bitcoin world are written in PHP as well...

It might be their Bitcoin site is better with Python. Or.. they wanted to get Google in (just a joke).

Anyway, I agree with @newIndia, most of the Bitcoin site I see was written in PHP. Well, SimpleMachineForum (this forums) is written in PHP too.
So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.

Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!

Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

We use php as well. It could be a little hard to develop your own bitcoin client in php. But you may use json rpc to connect to running bitcoid server.
