What is a cheese pizza? Well, it could be interpreted as being any pizza, of whatever type - calzone, deep pan or thin and crispy, for example - that has cheese on it. Which, seeing as cheese is one of most common pizza ingredients, would actually be most of them. Mozzarella is the standard, traditional pizza cheese, with buffalo mozzarella being found on the best.
Alternatively, it could be a pizza where cheese is the most important, or practically sole (except for herbs and the tomato based pizza topping) ingredient. One of the traditional cheese pizzas, and one of the oldest pizzas referred to as such is the Margherita, which is made with mozzarella, tomato, basil and extra virgin olive oil. Although the latter two ingredients will often be left out, even though they are still typically called Margheritas.
Other cheese pizzas would have multiple different cheeses on them, such as three and four cheese (or even more) pizzas. These are definitely for the cheese lover. Cheddar cheese is a popular cheese type found on multiple cheese pizzas, as it has a good taste and melts well in cooking.
