WPPs are independent Internet Service Providers that manage the Web server hardware and software necessary to host Internet sites.
Users simply rent space on their Web servers.
Web pages and Web sites created using FrontPage can be hosted on any Internet or intranet Web server. A few FrontPage features require FrontPage server extensions to operate. One example is the Search FrontPage component, which allows you to add site-wide searching to your Web site without programming. For these features to work, the Internet or intranet server hosting the FrontPage Web site must have the FrontPage server extensions installed. If you already have a WPP, check to see if it supports the FrontPage server extensions.
