PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, typically referred to as PHP, is a famous imperative programming language, which is used to develop dynamic sites with interactive components such as Internet forums, online teaching websites or community websites. In comparison to static HTML-based websites, a PHP website can show unique web content to each user under the same exact URL. As PHP-based web applications can be managed via one single Control Panel, which you can sign into from any online browser, you will not need to possess any web design expertise or practical experience in order to maintain a PHP site. The fact that 100s of millions of websites around the world are PHP-based is an indication of the language’s popularity and simplicity of use. You only have to make certain that the web server on which your site is hosted supports the very same PHP version as the one that you used while creating the site.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Cloud Website Hosting
If you order a cloud website hosting plan from our company, you’ll never need to question yourself on whether your websites are compatible with the hosting environment, since we offer support for multiple PHP versions for your convenience’s sake. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will allow you to select PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 with only one click of the mouse and in case you need to change the current version, the new settings will take effect immediately. Thus, years of work on websites created with an older version will not go down the tubes. Our hosting platform will even allow you to use a different PHP version for each domain hosted in your account, which means that you can use older and newer scripts at the same time. Most hosting providers on the marketplace support one, sometimes two versions of PHP. In stark contrast to them, we strongly believe that you should be the one to pick the version that will be used by your very own sites.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Semi-dedicated Servers
Even if your websites were built with an earlier version of PHP, you’ll be able to host them in a semi-dedicated server account from us, since we support several versions running at the same time on our semi-dedicated servers and each one of them can be activated for your account with no more than a click via our in-house created Hepsia hosting Control Panel. In addition to the newest PHP 8, we also offer 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4 and the older PHP 4. The latter has already been abandoned by the vast majority of web hosts, but we think that you shouldn’t be forced to modify a website that took several years to create, as older scripting language syntax doesn’t invariably mean safety breaches. Just the opposite, a well-maintained website using PHP 4 can be more secure than an incompetently maintained one using PHP 5. For your convenience, we will also give you the opportunity to pick a different version of PHP for each single website within the account.
