April 10, 2007 -- Online media company iNET Interactive (iNETinteractive.com) and online and offline publishing group Web Host Industry Review Inc. (thewhir.com) announced this week that they have partnered to distribute the Web Host Industry Review's daily Web hosting news to users of iNET Interactive's Web Hosting Talk (webhostingtalk.com), the largest Web hosting community on the Internet.
The WHIR's news feed will appear in a newly-created industry news section at Web Hosting Talk. With more than 150,000 users, and more than 4.4 million posts, the extremely popular online community is the de facto meeting place for Web hosting businesses and customers. Founded in 2000 and acquired by iNET Interactive in 2003, Web Hosting Talk is part of iNET Interactive's network of community-driven Web sites serving the web hosting, web development and technology enthusiast markets.
"We're very excited to have our feed appear on Web Hosting Talk," says Stephen Mayhew, publisher of the Web Host Industry Review. "It has a huge audience that is perfectly suited to our content. Both theWHIR and Web Hosting Talk serve the same community in very different and very complementary ways, so it makes perfect sense for us to partner with iNET Interactive in this way."
The Web Host Industry Review Web site is updated daily with news, features, interviews, editorials, tutorials and blog posts, providing the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the Web hosting business. The Web site is part of a publishing network that includes the Web Host Industry Review print magazine, Web-based video channel WHIRtv (whirtv.com) and Web hosting job board WebHostingJobs (webhostingjobs.com).
"The newly-created news section and the daily news feed from theWHIR are valuable additions to the Web Hosting Talk community," says iNET Interactive president and CEO Troy Augustine. "I have every expectation that the partnership will be a resounding success."

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.
