PHP is among the most commonly used reflective programming languages. It is very popular since it’s free software, which can be used to set up interactive sites such as community websites, e-commerce portals or school websites as opposed to static HTML sites. A PHP module should be enabled on the web server where a PHP-powered website is hosted so that its source code can be ‘decoded’. As there aren’t any license taxes for this type of module and the language itself provides innumerable options for the Internet applications that you build, there are hundreds of millions of PHP websites. On top of that, there’re a large number of open-source PHP-based scripts, which you can use for your websites without the need to possess any programming abilities. As there are a handful of PHP versions, you have to verify whether the exact same version that you used while building your website is present on the web server as well.

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

If you get a hosting plan from our company, you’ll never have to ponder over whether or not your sites are compatible with the hosting environment, since different PHP versions are activated on our servers for your convenience’s sake. The Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to select PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 with just one click of the mouse and in case you wish to change the current version, the new settings will take effect straight away. In this way, several years of work on sites built with an older PHP version will not be wasted. Our web hosting platform will even permit you to use a different version of PHP for each domain hosted in your account, which means that you can run older and newer scripts at the same time. Most web hosting providers on the market offer one, sometimes two versions of PHP. In contrast to them, we reckon that you should be the one to choose the version that your own websites will be using.
