April 10, 2007 -- Online media company iNET Interactive (iNETinteractive.com) and online and offline publishing group Web Host Industry Review Inc. (thewhir.com) announced this week that they have partnered to distribute the Web Host Industry Review's daily Web hosting news to users of iNET Interactive's Web Hosting Talk (webhostingtalk.com), the largest Web hosting community on the Internet.
The WHIR's news feed will appear in a newly-created industry news section at Web Hosting Talk. With more than 150,000 users, and more than 4.4 million posts, the extremely popular online community is the de facto meeting place for Web hosting businesses and customers. Founded in 2000 and acquired by iNET Interactive in 2003, Web Hosting Talk is part of iNET Interactive's network of community-driven Web sites serving the web hosting, web development and technology enthusiast markets.
"We're very excited to have our feed appear on Web Hosting Talk," says Stephen Mayhew, publisher of the Web Host Industry Review. "It has a huge audience that is perfectly suited to our content. Both theWHIR and Web Hosting Talk serve the same community in very different and very complementary ways, so it makes perfect sense for us to partner with iNET Interactive in this way."
The Web Host Industry Review Web site is updated daily with news, features, interviews, editorials, tutorials and blog posts, providing the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the Web hosting business. The Web site is part of a publishing network that includes the Web Host Industry Review print magazine, Web-based video channel WHIRtv (whirtv.com) and Web hosting job board WebHostingJobs (webhostingjobs.com).
"The newly-created news section and the daily news feed from theWHIR are valuable additions to the Web Hosting Talk community," says iNET Interactive president and CEO Troy Augustine. "I have every expectation that the partnership will be a resounding success."
