PHP is among the most commonly used open-source server-side coding languages. It is pretty popular as it is free software, which can be used to develop responsive websites like community websites, e-shops or e-learning sites instead of static HTML sites. A PHP module should be activated on the server where a PHP-driven site is hosted so that its source code can be interpreted. Since there aren’t any license fees for such a module and the language offers innumerable possibilities for the Internet apps that you develop, there’re 100s of millions of PHP websites. Moreover, there’re a large number of open-source PHP scripts, which you can use for your sites without the need to have any programming experience. Considering the fact that there’re a couple of versions of PHP, you must ensure that the same version that you used while developing your website is activated on the web server as well.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Cloud Website Hosting

With our Linux cloud website hosting, you’ll be able to select the version of PHP that will be active for your web hosting account, as we support different versions. With just one click, you’ll be able to switch between PHP 4, 5, 7 and whenever a new version is introduced in the future, we’ll include it in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel without removing the older ones. Thus, you will be able to host all the sites that you’ve developed over the years. In stark contrast with many other web hosting suppliers, we won’t force you to update such sites, because a script may be out of date, but this doesn’t automatically mean that it’s vulnerable as you may have modified its source code to prevent security holes. For your convenience, you’ll even be able to pick a different version of PHP for each individual website that you host in your hosting account.

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

We’re staunch in our conviction that years spent developing a website should not go down the tube, which means that in case you get a semi-dedicated server from us, you’ll be able to run any script, no matter if it’s new or old. Unlike a lot of hosting suppliers, we support several different versions of PHP on our avant-garde cloud hosting platform – 4, 5 and 7. Not only will you have the ability to activate the needed version from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, but you’ll also have the opportunity to set a different PHP version for each website. This can be done simply by placing an .htaccess file into the root directory of the given site. You can change the version either for a single site or for the entire account and the update will be applied in less than a couple of minutes. With our hosting services, you can rest assured that you will never encounter any website incompatibility challenges.
