January 4, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Globat (globat.com) announced on Wednesday it has launched new package and service upgrades for the New Year.
Globat says its new TeraByte Xtreme and TeraByte XS packages, starting at $6.95 per month, come with 1,000 and 5,000 GB of hosting space, respectively. Both packages include large allotments of monthly bandwidth to meet the demand for traffic-heavy sites, especially video and media-driven Web sites.
The new packages replace Globat.com's previous Web hosting offerings, solidifying the company's stance on providing value. Each package comes with support for QuickTime, RealVideo and RealAudio streaming along with easy-to-use self-publishing tools.
"The Web hosting industry is changing, and we see more and more people wanting to host video and media on their Web sites," says Ben Neumann, president and CEO of Globat. "Media files, especially videos, are quite large and they can take up a lot of disk space very quickly. Also, showing them on a Web site requires a great amount of bandwidth. At Globat, we're always aware of the changing needs of our customers, and of course, we're one step ahead to make sure their needs are met."

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
