I want to find how to create a simple web service using PHP. I am new to web service. Is there any tutorial so I can learn it from the start. Thanks all.
I want to host this webservice so I can use this web service in android app development I own my hosting space.

You can use any existing PHP framework like CodeIgniter or Symfony or CakePHP to build the webservices.
Web services are XML-based information exchange systems that use the Internet for direct application-to-application interaction. These systems can include programs, objects, messages, or documents. A web service is a collection of open protocols and standards used for exchanging data between applications or systems.
There is nothing particularly special about a web service when compared to any other kind of site. The major difference is that output is generally in a format other than HTML, these days it is usually JSON, which has its own section in the PHP manual
Aside from that it is just a matter of having sensible URIs, which may take sensible query strings or post data, and may require some kind of authentication (just like any other site).
