Verio Attracts Resellers with Free Month of VPS Hosting: Companies looking to boost revenues are finding Verio's Free VPS promotion the right fit for getting started as Hosting Reseller.

April 17, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Lunarpages Web Hosting (lunarpages.com) made several announcements on Wednseday regarding the launch of two promotions and the sponsoring of a WordPress design contest.

Lunarpages is providing the first 100 customers to purchase any Windows Dedicated Server plan for 12 or 24 months with a copy of WYSIWYG HTML and website editor, Microsoft Expression Web, and a one-year subscription to Expression Studio Training from Total Training, which provides instructions on how to use the editor and how to build a website using Windows products and services.

The Web host has also discounted its most popular Web hosting plan from now through June 20. The Basic Hosting Plan is now priced at $4.95 per month, down from $6.95. It includes 1,500GB of storage and 15,000GB bandwidth per month, a domain name, website templates, blogs, photo galleries and chatrooms and unlimited email addresses.

Finally, Lunarpages is sponsoring a WordPress Theme contest that will reward the best design entry with $1,000 and five years of free hosting on its Basic Plan. The contest is run via the Lunarpages Blog (blog.lunarpages.com) until June 22, and Lunarpages customers, staff and other site visitors can vote for the winning themes.

The Lunarpages staff will choose the top five designs submitted each week for the community to vote. The winner automatically progresses to the finals for the chance to win the grand prize. Second prize is $300 and three years of hosting, while third place is $100 and one year of free hosting.

In February, Lunarpages upgraded its Basic and Business hosting plans to include the ability to host an unlimited number of sites from a single package.

How can they offer 1500 Gb of storage when they probably do not have a hard drive that big on their servers.

And what about the 15000 GB of bandwith ? We will use more processor resources than what is allowed before even reaching 5000 GB of bandwith and get our account suspended.

The Whir should report that webhosts, in announcing such numbers, are deceiving people and should not relay their lies.
