COLLABORATIVE PUBLISHING HOSTING

What Is SPIP?

SPIP (Système de Publication pour l'Internet) is a PHP publishing system first released in 2001. It was designed so writers and editors can focus on their content while SPIP handles layout, menus, and site structure automatically.

SPIP organizes content into sections and articles, with a built-in editorial workflow: Authors propose articles, editors review them, and administrators publish them. It supports multilingual sites, user roles, forums, and RSS feeds, and you can customize the design with SPIP's template system, called “squelettes,” plus a large library of plugins.

Why Choose HostPapa for SPIP Hosting?

HostPapa gives you everything SPIP needs in one place. Our Web Hosting plans include PHP version selection, MySQL databases, cPanel, and 400+ one-click apps through Softaculous. A FREE SSL certificate protects your editors' logins and your readers' connections.

SPIP is light on server resources, so it runs well on our Web Hosting plans, and NVMe storage keeps pages and images loading fast. Our PapaSquad team supports customers in English, French, Spanish, and German, so you can get help in French when you need it. If you run a large news site, a busy institutional portal, or several SPIP sites for different departments, VPS Hosting gives you dedicated resources and full control over caching and server settings.

Already publishing with SPIP on another host? We offer FREE website and domain migration, so our team can help move your site and archives.
