FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions

Microsoft® FrontPage® 98

Microsoft FrontPage makes it easy to produce professional quality web sites. With powerful tools such as built in image mapping, spell checking, WebBot components, and a familiar interface (like other Microsoft Office applications), you can get great results fast.

BWSD supports the FrontPage 98 extensions in their entirety and completely free of charge. The FrontPage product, while not the only means by which you can create and publish web content, is an excellent tool for our Resellers who are interested in quickly creating and easily maintaining web sites on the BWSD Virtual Server System.

BWSD has been recognized in the Microsoft Web Presence Provider Referral List as a Registered Web Presence Provider for FrontPage 98. To be included in this referral list a hosting company must meet specific guidelines required by Microsoft with regards to the functionality of its Servers supporting FrontPage and its extensions. In addition to being listed itself, BWSD also has the distinction of being able to enable its own Resellers to become registered as FrontPage Web Presence Providers for listing in Microsoft's Web Presence Provider referral list. Contact us for more information about this opportunity.
