February 8, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Data recovery solutions provider R1Soft (r1soft.com) announced on Friday that it has launched its channel partner program, empowering channel providers and resellers to more effectively market and distribute the company's data protection solutions.
To encourage sales, R1Soft says it will provide sales tools, sales programs, pre-qualified leads and marketing collateral to help partners close deals and optimize overall sales. Partners will have access to the program's Partner Portal, offering a library of product datasheets, white papers, promotional handouts, case studies and Internet marketing tools, including an online pricing calculator that shows how R1Soft products maximize ROI and cost less than the competition, says the company.
"We have always worked closely with select selected added resellers and distributors to deliver high performance continuous data protection solutions and services to customers across all major industry verticals and territories," says Nick Futter, VP of channel development at R1Soft. "We created our channel partner program to provide channel partners with the tools and support they need to quickly and effectively bring R1Soft products to market as part of comprehensive solutions that meet their customers' business needs."
Last week, Future Hosting deployed Future Protect, a continuous data protection technology powered by R1Soft.

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.

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.
