FrontPage Extensions are a set of system files and folders needed by sites designed with Microsoft FrontPage so as to function properly. Without them, you can still use the application to build sites and upload your content on the web server, however the sites will have limited features, thus the user experience will not be the same. One more advantage of using a hosting service with FrontPage Extensions available is the fact that you'll be able to publish your 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 very easy to start and keep your web presence even if you do not have any previous knowledge, as you can update the website in the future just as fast.
FrontPage Extensions in Shared Hosting
Unlike a large number of web hosting companies on the market, we don't plan to cease the support of FrontPage Extensions on our servers and this specific feature is accessible with each and every shared hosting that we supply. We acknowledge the fact that in case you're switching companies and you are moving your active website, you have probably worked tirelessly on it through the years, that's why we give you the opportunity to select whether you will employ another application to rebuild your website or employ the content which you already own to avoid losing years of work. Activating FrontPage Extensions on our end takes only a click in the Hosted Domains area of the Hepsia Control Panel and you can use them independently for each individual domain or subdomain that you have in your account. After that you can upload your website since our system will include the necessary FrontPage files in the domain folder, therefore you will not have to do anything else manually.
FrontPage Extensions in Semi-dedicated Servers
FrontPage Extensions are accessible with all semi-dedicated server accounts that we offer and we do not plan to remove this particular feature from any of our packages, so you won't be forced to switch companies or the web site design app which you employ like you should do with numerous providers today. It's our belief that many years of work should not be wasted, so in case you move a site made with FrontPage here, it'll function flawlessly and you will be able to host it on our cloud platform in the future. You can activate the feature with just a couple of clicks in your account - sign in to the Hepsia Control Panel, go to the Hosted Domains section, click on the Edit button for a given domain/subdomain, then click on the FrontPage Extensions option which you'll see and you're all set. Our system will do the rest, which means that you can proceed and upload your world wide web content without having to do anything else manually.
