FrontPage Extensions are a set of system files and folders needed by sites created with Microsoft FrontPage to operate efficiently. Without them, you could still use the app to build sites and upload your content on the web server, but the sites will have limited features, thus the user experience won't be the same. One more advantage of using a web hosting service with FrontPage Extensions available is the fact that you are able to publish your web pages directly on the server without the need for any third-party software as long as you enter your account FTP info in FrontPage. This characteristic will make it really easy to start and keep your web presence even if you lack any previous knowledge, as you'll be able to update your website later on just as quickly.
FrontPage Extensions in Website Hosting
While many hosting providers today discontinue their support for FrontPage Extensions, we don't have such plans. We believe that you shouldn't be limited when it comes to the software that you'll be able to work with in order to build your site and you should have a choice whether you will use FrontPage or a different application. In case you already have a website, you can move it over and avoid losing many years of work because FrontPage Extensions are supported with all our website hosting packages without exception. You could activate them for each domain or subdomain within your account by clicking on the Edit button for it from the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Enabling this option takes just a couple of clicks and then our system will add all of the needed FrontPage system files inside the domain/subdomain folder, therefore all that you will have to do following that will be to upload your website files.
FrontPage Extensions in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you have a semi-dedicated server plan from us, you are able to employ FrontPage to create your website, as FrontPage Extensions are set up on the cloud platform where your website hosting account will be created. Activating and disabling the feature is done with a few clicks and per domain or subdomain from your Hepsia Control Panel which you will get to manage the account, which means that you're able to easily have a FrontPage main website and a blog or a discussion forum script within a subdomain without problems. Our system will add all the system files required for such a site automatically inside the selected folder. Lots of website hosting suppliers these days stop the support for FrontPage Extensions, however we would rather leave this choice to you, rather than making you switch the web design software which you use and waste all of the money and efforts that you have invested over the years to build and maintain your website.
