PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, also known as PHP, is a popular web development language, which can be used to set up dynamic sites with interactive elements like Internet forums, e-learning sites or social networks. In contrast to static HTML websites, a PHP-driven site can serve different web content to each user under the same exact URL. Because PHP-based web-based apps can be managed via one single Control Panel, which you can log onto from any web browser, you won’t have to possess any computer programming skills or previous experience whatsoever in order to maintain a PHP-powered website. The fact that 100s of millions of sites worldwide are built on PHP is indicative of the popularity and the ease of use of the language. You only need to confirm if the web server on which your website is hosted supports the very same version of PHP as the one that you used whilst building the website.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Cloud Website Hosting
Our cloud website hosting servers support several PHP versions, which implies that your websites will work properly even if your PHP-based scripts are outdated. We realize that an old site doesn’t automatically imply an insecure one as you may have carried out lots of source code mods. That’s the reason why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can decide which one will be enabled for your shared web hosting account. The version can be changed with only one click of the mouse inside your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the update will be applied instantly. If you wish to run both newer and older scripts, there is even an option to use a different version of PHP for each of your domain names simultaneously.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Semi-dedicated Servers
Even in case your websites were built with an older PHP version, you will 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 servers and each of them can be activated for your account with no more than a click of the mouse from our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. Apart from the newest PHP 8, we also support 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, which has already been dropped by the majority of web hosting companies, but we strongly believe that you should not be forced to modify a website that took years to build, as older programming language syntax does not invariably suggest security loopholes. Just the opposite, a properly maintained website using PHP 4 can be more secure than an incompetently maintained one using PHP 5. For your convenience, we’ll also provide you with the opportunity to pick a different version of PHP for each website within your account.
