123-Reg customers can now install applications on their hosting packages with just one click, thanks to the web hosting and domain expert’s free addition of APS (Application Packaging Standard) technology.
One of the first to use APS in the UK, 123-reg customers will be able to easily install blogs, photo galleries, content management systems and much more in just seconds, without any complex setup.
To install an application, all 123-reg customers need to do is choose which one they would like, select the domain/hosting package they would like it on and click install.
Thomas Vollrath, CEO of 123-reg comments, “As consumer demand grows, websites are having to evolve and become far more than static pages. For many organisations, websites are the primary resource for engaging with a customer base or community. It’s therefore essential to meet demands and embrace functionality that enables users to interact with a website. APS makes adding such interactive functionality easy and, best of all, it’s free!”
A wide variety of the latest applications are available from the launch of the new 123-reg one click technology. Content Management Systems such as Joomla, phpNuke and tikiwiki can be installed quickly and easily, without the usual complex configuration. Photo gallery applications such as Coppermine and Gallery, customer support applications such as Sugar CRM and Mantis, plus blogging applications such as Wordpress and Drupal are a few of the instantly available applications open to 123-reg shared hosting customers.
Up to five applications can be installed on the 123-reg Expert hosting packages, three on the Plus packages and one on the Pro package.
