March 27, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider ServerBeach (serverbeach.com), a PEER 1 (peer1.com) company, announced on Thursday it has reached the 10,000 servers mark. The company attributes this milestone to its ability to provide flexibile solutions to customers in order to grow their businesses and online presence.
"This milestone also reflects the company's continuous growth in the very competitive self-managed hosting arena," says Fabio Banducci, president and CEO of PEER 1. "We strongly believe this has been accomplished in part because ServerBeach has maintained its commitment to go above and beyond what other self-managed hosting companies provide, with much needed resources and support that help our customers succeed."
ServerBeach says it is focused on providing customers with continued support as their businesses grow, with around the clock customer service and automation tools which include Rapid Reboot and Rapid Rescue. These self-management tools are optimized in-house by ServerBeach and are offered to customers for free.
Rapid Reboot enables customers to restart their web servers instantly and on-demand, without having to wait on a technician to reboot them. Rapid Rescue is one-of-a-kind, allowing customers to rescue their dedicated servers from potentially fatal errors without waiting for assistance from an onsite technician.
ServerBeach says it uses PEER 1's high performance, fully redundant network, which includes 15 data centers in 12 cities spanning California, Texas and Virginia, as well as 20 network points-of-presence across North America and Europe. The company says it offers its customers reliable service, minimal latency, disaster recovery and geographic diversity.
San Antonio, Texas-based ServerBeach provides self-managed hosting for businesses of all sizes around North America and the world.

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.
