PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, typically referred to as PHP, is a famous general-purpose server-side scripting language, which can be used to set up dynamic sites with interactive components like discussion boards, online learning sites or community web portals. In stark contrast to static HTML-based websites, a PHP-powered website can show unique web content to each visitor under the very same URL. As PHP-based apps can be managed through a single Control Panel, which you can sign into from any browser, you won’t need to have any web development skills or practical experience whatsoever in order to maintain a PHP-powered site. The fact that hundreds of millions of sites around the world are built using PHP is indicative of the language’s popularity and simplicity of use. You only ought to check if the server on which your site is hosted supports the very same PHP version as the one that you used while developing the site.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Cloud Hosting

In case you purchase a cloud hosting plan from our company, you will never have to speculate as to whether your websites are compatible with the web hosting environment, as different PHP versions are activated on our servers for the sake of your convenience. The Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to pick PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 with just one single click of the mouse and if you’d like to change the current version, the update will be applied instantaneously. Thus, several years of work on sites created with an older version of PHP won’t be in vain. Our hosting platform will even allow you to use a different PHP version for each domain name hosted in your account, which means that you can use older and newer scripts simultaneously. Most hosting providers on the marketplace support one, sometimes two versions of PHP. In stark contrast with them, we think that you should be the one to pick the version that your very own websites will use.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you have a website built on an older PHP version and you have devoted time and energy towards developing it, plugging safety breaches and adding content, you will need a web hosting service that can support it, as almost all web hosting companies these days offer support only for the most recent PHP version and abandon the earlier versions. We, however, have decided to let you pick the version that your very own sites require. Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8, which means that you’ll be able to use both older and newer scripts without forfeiting any custom modifications or frittering away time and energy struggling to make your websites compatible with the web hosting environment. You can change the current version through the Hepsia Control Panel and such an update will apply to the entire semi-dedicated server account, but you will also have the ability to specify a different PHP version for each site that you host in your account using an .htaccess configuration file.
