PHP is a perfectly fine path to take. The LAMP stack is a good option. There are some developers who think PHP is bad because they do not like the way the code is written. But PHP is still a great option and you can probably do all the things that you can do with Nodejs with PHP. Also just an FYI, Facebook was first written in PHP.

Hope this answers your question! Thanks :)
