March 26, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Globalwebbrands (globalwebbrands.com) announced on Friday it has discontinued its $200 per month Terabyte Web hosting plan to make way for new service offerings.
Globalwebbrands.com says it plans on introducing dedicated servers and virtual private server Web hosting solutions to its portfolio of services by the first of July. The company, which recently discontinued its Web design services to focus completely on Web hosting, has received customer feedback demanding higher caliber offerings.
"In the past, we have always referred clients needing VPS or dedicated solutions to our partners. However, we have lately received stronger demand for a complete family of services that allows our users to effortlessly upgrade to higher-grade solutions with us as the need arises," says Daniel Briere, Globalwebbrands.com CEO. "This is an important step towards continuing to establish Globalwebbrands.com's new position as a leading Web hosting provider worldwide."
The company says users currently on the Terabyte hosting plan will not be affected by the change and is only closed to new users. In addition, Globalwebbrands.com says it will continue offering its flagship shared hosting plans.

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.
