PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, better known as PHP, is a popular open-source scripting language, which is used to build dynamic sites with interactive elements like Internet forums, online teaching portals or community portals. In comparison with static HTML-based sites, a PHP-driven site can serve different web content to each user under the same exact page URL. Given the fact that PHP-based applications can be managed through a single Control Panel, which you can log in to using any web browser, you won’t need to have any coding abilities or prior experience whatsoever to run a PHP-driven website. The fact that hundreds of millions of sites around the world are built on PHP is an indication of the popularity and the ease of use of the language. You should only confirm whether the web server on which your site is hosted supports the exact same version of PHP as the one that you used whilst creating the website.

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

In case you purchase a web hosting package from us, you’ll never have to speculate over whether or not your sites are compatible with the web hosting environment, since several PHP versions are installed on our servers for your convenience’s sake. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will permit you to select PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 with just one click and if you want to change the current version, the update will take effect immediately. In this way, several years of work on websites created with an older PHP version will not be in vain. Our web hosting platform will even allow you to use a different version of PHP for each domain name hosted in your account, which goes to say that you can run newer and older scripts at the same time. Most hosting providers on the market offer one, sometimes two PHP versions. In stark contrast with them, we maintain that you should be the one to pick the version that your own sites will be using.

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

Our semi-dedicated servers support multiple versions of PHP, which implies that you will be able to run all the web apps that you’ve created throughout the years. The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with every single semi-dedicated server account, will permit you to activate the required version with one mouse click. You can choose between PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. If you would like to host multiple sites under the very same account and they have distinctive requirements with reference to the hosting environment, you will be able to specify a different version for each of them irrespective of which version is enabled for the account as a whole. This is possible owing to our custom-created cloud hosting platform, which permits us to run several versions of PHP all at once. In stark comparison, the majority of web hosting vendors usually offer one, rarely two versions.
