Server Side Includes in Shared Web Hosting
As our unique cloud hosting system features Server Side Includes on a global level, it is possible to make use of this function with the shared web hosting packages we have and add in dynamic content to your sites with just a few clicks. SSI is enabled for each specific domain or subdomain by inserting an .htaccess file in the site folder with just a few lines of code. Of course, you don't need to turn into a programmer for that because the required code may be copied from the Help post that we have regarding Server Side Includes. If you wish to utilize this feature for your website, you'll want to rename your website files from .html to .shtml plus you've got to double-check if all of the links on your site lead to the current names.
Server Side Includes in Semi-dedicated Hosting
It will not take you over a moment to enable Server Side Includes when you have a semi-dedicated server package from us. When you choose to enable this function, you will need to set up an .htaccess file in the main folder for the domain or subdomain where you need SSI to be active. In that file, you have to copy some code, which you'll see in the FAQ article we have dedicated to SSI. You can get the latter in the Help section of your Hosting Control Panel, so you don't need any previous knowledge about such things. The only 2 things you should deal with are renaming all of the webpages that will utilize Server Side Includes from .html to .shtml and updating all the links on your site, so that they point to the renamed files.
