Your Questions About Web Host For Frontpage
Robert asks…
Web hosting, combining different technologies?
I have a general question about webserving technology: Can I have a web application that combines PHP and any one of FrontPage apps, lets say on one site.. or on one page?
Would this be parsed/evaluated one after another?
Can they share variables/ share data in memory?
If they are eval’d sequentially, what if they conflict, setTitle(this).. then setTitle(that)..?
I am looking at this site: https://www.ipower.com/ipower/web-hosting/unix-compare-plans.bml
which has both FrontPage and PHP interfaces.. I am looking to find out whether or not I can develop in C# (lets say).
Thank you, I appreciate your help/time! I am looking for a high-level/white paper answer, thank you.

I guess you need to know more about Linux based web hosting for php based web hosting. IPage is best & cheap web host both for windows or Linux web hosting. I was quite amazed to find the information on Webhostingbreak which one of the most popular web hosting reviewers. The web host’s services are acclaimed globally. They are well known for their accurate reviews and recommendations. For such excellent and amazing services they are away ahead of the rest. Check their cheap web hosting directory, https://www.webhostingbreak.com/list/cheap-web-hosting/. Their directory lists the top 34 hosts on the web giving you an edge while selecting the best web host.

Web Hosting?
I registered a domain name for my company a few years ago, as an example www.greatsolutions.co.uk.
I want to be able to make it into a website now, i want to get a company to host the website (i’m going to figure out how to design it in something like MS frontpage). Can i just tell them my domain name or do i have to ‘deregister’ it from the register company and reregister it with the new company or what?
Finally will i be able to get an email address like emma.hope@greatsolutions.co.uk from a webhost company?
Does any have any recommendations of a company that could do this for me, i want someone i can use (i am UK based) and offers good value for money (not necessarily the cheapest), good customer service etc.
I want a web hosting company that specifically hosts websites not a huge company like yahoo who do many different things, i also want someone based in the UK with a decent ‘person’ customer service that i can speak to. Don’t know of anyone that has ever spoken to someone at Yahoo

Hi, points all below:
1. Your Domain – The most important thing to remember is to never never move your domain to the hosting company, you want to keep your domain at your current register company and only change the DNS servers. The reason is that you want to keep control of that domain name as bad hosting companies in the past have sometimes held it hostage to make you pay and stay with them or if they go bankrupt its hard for you to get your domain back. When you sign up with a hosting company they will give you DNS servers and then you can just go into your current register and change your DNS servers to those and within 10 to 36 hours everything will be working.
2. Your Email – yep that is no problem, the hosting company will have a control panel you can use to make those emails. Its easy and they will probably have a flash movie to show you how.
3. Recommended UK based companies – For someone who focuses on web hosting and is inexpensive but not the cheapest and has good customer service I recommend the below:
UK2.Net – https://uk2.net/ – One of the bigger UK based companies, reviews are not great but that is just because they are one of the bigger ones, still a good cheap host. (User reviews at https://www.webhostingunleashed.com/uk2 and https://www.uk2reviews.com/)
DataFlame – https://www.dataflame.co.uk/ – Decent company, but has good user reviews (Revies at https://www.webhostingunleashed.com/dataflame and https://www.dataflamereviews.com/)
HostNine – Their staff is US based but they have UK based servers, mid size and very good reviews (Reviews at https://www.webhostingunleashed.com/hostnine and https://www.hostninereviews.com). Depends on if you want UK based service.
You might also check out https://2uk2.com/, newer so don’t know too much about them. Also you can get a lot of info on a host by searching on WebHostingTalk.com for the hosts name too or for uk based hosts and it comes up with a few more.
Good luck!
Thanks, Ben

Creating and/or maintaining web site…help!?
In the past I have kept up a website for a company that was put together with Frontpage 2003. I learned as I went and have been ok at maintaining a simple website. Now I am getting more into helping new clients and I need help. A couple of questions:
1) If I have someone that has a website done with dreamweaver but they don’t like it and I can do pages in front page 2003 is there a way to upload the pages in place of the dreamweaver pages with the web host?
2) As I am slowly learning about websites, etc. what are the latest programs? Is there even a new version of front page? What do most people use? What should I be looking for?
Any information on these topics would be helpful.
admin answers:
I’ll answer your questions first.
1. Yes. It is possible. Dreamweaver is an website development tool that is based on open standards (HTML, CSS, javascripts, XML) . Also, try to keep your development with Frontpage 2003 based on open standards as well and not use specific FrontPage features (webbots, etc.)
2. The latest for professionals? Still Adobe/Macromedia Dreamweaver and from Microsoft, Expression Web. FrontPage has long expired (since 2003). Expression Web is the successor.
Knowing your situation, you should consider trying Microsoft Office Live Small Business since you are developing websites for clients. You can even do this as a business by helping companies go online. Office Live is a complete all-in-one internet toolkit to get a professional online presence for small businesses. It has an easy to use online web designer tool with templates which allows you to create a website without the need to know how to do HTML/CSS coding. You can also upload your own website that you create with Dreamweaver, FrontPage, Expresison Web, etc. – it has 500MB of storage. This is a free service.
Currently Microsoft is offering a free domain name (i.e. Yourdomain.com) for the first year. Of course, if you prefer, you can always use the free provided subdomain name.Office Live also comes with free email, contact manager, email marketing (add-on). Try it out:

Donna asks…
I need a something that enables me to add a blog to my existing website?
I am looking for something that is hopefully FREE! The web host i have does not have ftp access. I upload things to my site through Microsoft Frontpage so the software must not require FTP access.
admin answers:
I would start by asking your hosting provider. They may have blog software already installed on the server that you can use for your site. If not, things may get more complicated than you’re ready for…
Are you 100% sure your hosting provider won’t let you use ftp? Frontpage is using a form of ftp to get your info up in the first place. Anyway, ftp would make things easier if your provider doesn’t have the software installed and you want full control and blog hosting for your own personal site.
Without ftp, you can run a blog on another site, including Yahoo!. There may be a way to capture the RSS feed and then display it on your site…
