Fantastico is a system designed to make installing popular scripts easy. Fantastico is a program that integrates with the popular online control panel” Cpanel” to offer web hosting customers the ability to install popular programs and scripts with the ease of a click on a button. Fantastico is extremely easy to use. While it is written with the non-technical user in place, it also found great interest from more technically-minded users who wish not to waste time on manually configuring many installation files to install a Perl or PHP script on their websites. Fantastico is a great choice if you want to install something like a blog. WordPress or Nucleus are two supported blog installations done by Fantastico.
Fantastico is usually included for free in web hosting packages for the consumer. Web Hosts have to license the software per server. However – that license fee has shown to be a great investment. Consumers love the variety of software that comes readily available with Fantastico. Fantastico is available for Linux / PHP web hosting only. Consumers who are interested in using Fantastico should check if their web host has video tutorials or a knowledge base that provides information about how to get most out of your Fantastico web hosting.
However – there is one disadvantage to report about Fantastico. Consumer rely on the web hosting provider as well as on the maker of Fantastico to update the script collection on a regular base. Some scripts might be out of date or open to exploits. But this should not scare consumers away. Rather contact tech support and inquire about updating Fantastico to the latest stable version.
Are there any web hosts offering Fantastico who can be recommended? There are literally thousands of web hosts a consumer can choose from. But with everything in life, it pays to do some research. The Web Hosting Resource Kit has done some of the groundwork for you already. As being our own web host we are independent from other web hosts and can therefore easily judge which web hosts are a good option for consumers.
