FrontPage Extensions
Microsoft FrontPage Extensions - what exactly are they used for and how to take full advantage of them.
FrontPage Extensions are specific system files, which are required for websites created with Microsoft FrontPage to function appropriately on a web server. Without these files, the sites will still work, but some options will be inaccessible, which can directly affect the user experience of your site visitors. When FrontPage Extensions are available on the hosting server, you will also be able to upload the site which you have made using your PC right away and with no additional software like an FTP program. You'll only have to type in the FTP login information for your web host account and FrontPage will do the rest, uploading or updating the files. Taking into account how easy it is to use FrontPage, you'll be able to launch your worldwide web presence very quickly even in case you've never built a site before.

FrontPage Extensions in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you have a
semi-dedicated server package from us, you can use FrontPage to build your site, because FrontPage Extensions are installed on the cloud platform where your hosting account will be created. Enabling and deactivating the feature is done with several clicks and per domain or subdomain using your Hepsia Control Panel which you'll get to manage the account, so you are able to easily have a FrontPage main website and a blog or a community forum script inside a subdomain without any problems. Our system will add all system files required for such a website automatically inside the selected folder. A lot of website hosting providers nowadays stop the support for FrontPage Extensions, however we prefer to leave this choice to you, rather than forcing you to switch the web design software which you use and waste all of the money and efforts that you've invested throughout the years in order to create and maintain your site.
