FrontPage Extensions are a group of system files and folders needed by sites created with Microsoft FrontPage in order to perform effectively. Without them, you may still use the app to make websites and upload your content on the web server, but the websites will have limited features, thus the user experience won't be the same. An additional advantage of using a web hosting service with FrontPage Extensions available is that you are able to publish your webpages directly on the server without the need for any third-party software as long as you enter your account FTP details in FrontPage. This characteristic will make it really easy to start and keep your web presence even if you do not have any previous knowledge, since you'll be able to update the site in the future just as fast.
