FrontPage Extensions are a group of system files and folders needed by websites designed with Microsoft FrontPage to operate effectively. Without them, you could still use the app to build websites and upload your content on the web server, however the websites will have restricted features, thus the user experience will not be the same. Another advantage of using a website hosting service with FrontPage Extensions available is that you're able to publish your pages directly on the server without the need for any third-party software as long as you enter your account FTP details in FrontPage. This characteristic will make it quite simple to start and maintain your web presence even if you don't have any previous knowledge, as you can update your website later on just as easily.
FrontPage Extensions in Semi-dedicated Servers
FrontPage Extensions is one of the characteristics which are included with all our Linux semi-dedicated hosting service. Unlike other web hosting providers, we have decided not to discontinue it and to leave the choice of website design application to you. FrontPage Extensions can be activated for a specific domain name or subdomain, not for the account as a whole, therefore our system will add the necessary system files just in the folder where you need them, while in other folders you'll be able to set up any kind of script-driven application or use some other web design software for a site which will be either an addition to the main one or a standalone one. It will take you a couple of clicks to activate FrontPage Extensions from the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with the semi-dedicated accounts and it's just as easy to deactivate them. When you use our website hosting services, you will not have to waste long years of work if you had hosted your site with a different company so far.
