PHP is one of the most commonly used open-source server-side coding languages. It’s highly popular as it’s free software, which you can use to develop responsive websites like social networking websites, shopping portals or online teaching sites rather than static HTML-based websites. A PHP module must be installed on the web server where a PHP website is hosted so that its source code can be ‘translated’. Because there are no license charges for such a module and the language itself offers endless possibilities for the web apps that you create, there are hundreds of millions of PHP-powered sites. What is more, there are loads of open-source PHP scripts, which you can use for your sites without the need to possess any coding experience. Since there’re a couple of PHP versions, you have to make sure that the same exact version that you used while creating your site is activated on the web server too.

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

In case you get a shared hosting package from our company, you’ll never need to speculate over whether your websites are compatible with the hosting platform, as several versions of PHP are activated on our servers for your convenience’s sake. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will allow you to choose PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 with just one single click and if you’d like to change the version, the update will be applied right away. In this way, many years of work on websites created with an older version of PHP won’t be wasted. Our web hosting platform will even allow you to use a different version of PHP for each domain name hosted in your account, which means that you can run older and newer scripts simultaneously. Most hosting companies on the market support one, sometimes two PHP versions. In stark contrast to them, we strongly believe that you should be the one to pick the version that will be used by your very own sites.

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

It’s our firm belief that several years spent setting up a website should not be lost, which means that if you order a semi-dedicated server from us, you will be able to run any script, irrespective of whether it’s new or old. In stark contrast to lots of hosting suppliers, we support several different PHP versions on our innovative cloud platform – 4, 5 and 7. Not only will you have the ability to enable the needed version through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, but you’ll also have the opportunity to choose a different version for each website. The latter can be accomplished merely by placing an .htaccess file within the given site’s root folder. You can change the current version not only for a single website, but also for the entire account and the change will take effect in just a couple of minutes. With our web hosting services, you can be sure that you will never face any site incompatibility challenges.
