PHP, which is an initialism for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is amongst the most widely used server-side coding languages available out there. Any site or Internet application built with PHP will run on a given web server as long as a PHP module is activated, which makes the language really universal and it is scarcely surprising that there are several million servers that support it and hundreds of millions of PHP websites hosted on them. PHP is preferred over HTML because of the fact that it permits you to build a responsive website with a plethora of different options. A PHP-based social networking website, for example, will display unique content to each user irrespective of the fact that the URL will stay the same. By contrast, HTML-based sites are static and the content on the pages can be modified only manually. Like any other software, PHP has several versions and the one that was used while developing a certain website must be set up on the web server in order for the site to run correctly.

This can be accomplished with just one single mouse click through our in-house developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel via which all web hosting accounts are managed, which is the reason why you will not need to have any coding or technical knowledge. You’ll be able to manage sites based on both new and old PHP scripts without having to overcome any impediments, so if you want to drop your current web hosting vendor and move over to us, you can be sure that all the sites that you have built through the years will continue to work impeccably.
