FrontPage Extensions are a set of system files and folders needed by websites designed with Microsoft FrontPage so as to operate properly. Without them, you can still use the application to create sites and upload your content on the web server, but the sites will have restricted features, thus the user experience won't be the same. An additional advantage of using a web hosting service with FrontPage Extensions available is that you'll be able to publish your webpages directly on the server without the need for any third-party software as long as you enter your account FTP details in FrontPage. This characteristic will make it quite simple to start and maintain your web presence even if you do not have any previous knowledge, since you're able to update your website later on just as fast.
FrontPage Extensions in Website Hosting
We support FrontPage Extensions with each and every website hosting plan that we provide and unlike most of the web hosting companies nowadays, we won't discontinue thisfeature, so it will be up to you if you'll launch and maintain your online presence using FrontPage or another website design software. In fact, in case you are moving your existing site to our servers, it's quite possible that you've spent time, money and efforts and we wouldn't want all that to go in vain. You will be able to enable FrontPage Extensions individually for each domain or subdomain through the Hepsia Control Panel, which means that it will not be a problem to have the main site built with FrontPage and use a script application in a subdomain for a community forum, for example - they will not conflict at all. In case you decide that you want to move to a different platform, you're able to deactivate FrontPage Extensions with just a few clicks.
FrontPage Extensions in Semi-dedicated Servers
FrontPage Extensions is among the characteristics which are included with all of our Linux semi-dedicated servers. Unlike other hosting suppliers, we've decided not to discontinue it and to leave the choice of web design application for you. FrontPage Extensions can be activated for a single domain or subdomain, not for the account in general, which means that our system will add the needed system files just in the folder where you need them, while in other folders you'll be able to put any script-driven application or employ some other website design software for a site that will be either an addition to the main one or a separate one. It'll take you just a couple of clicks to activate FrontPage Extensions from the Hosted Domains area of the Hepsia Control Panel which is included with the semi-dedicated accounts and it's just as quick to deactivate them. When you use our web hosting services, you will not have to throw away long years of work in case you had hosted your website with a different company until now.
