Web Host AIT Hits Ten-Year Mark

May 16, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider AIT (ait.com) announced this week that this month marks the 10th anniversary of its first-ever customer signup. And, according to AIT, the company marked the occasion with the signing of its first-ever million-dollar dealership deal.

The new deal, signed through AIT's Pittsburgh office, includes a comprehensive systems integration project designed to benefit an economically depressed part of the community.

"The dealership program extends beyond the traditional AIT product line," says AIT chief executive officer Clarence Briggs, "creating opportunities by bringing together the IT services and infrastructure that organizations and businesses need."

In the past several months, AIT has established dealerships in Chicago, Atlanta and Charlotte, as well as in Pittsburgh. It expects to open approximately a dozen more over the rest of the year. The dealerships are, in a sense, an extension of the company's reseller program, which helped build the company into a substantial Web hosting presence over its 10-year history.

AIT Dealerships offer the company's virtual products through a physical storefront.

"This is a best-case scenario for customers - the industrial-grade infrastructure and resources of a global service provider and local people with a local address and local phone number for support," says Ken Howard, one of the principals of the Chicago dealership.
