Colotraq Offers Real Estate Services
April 26, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- COLOTRAQ (colotraq.com), a business-to-business marketplace for colocation, hosting and data center providers, announced on Tuesday it now expanded its portfolio of services to offer comprehensive licensed real estate brokerage services.
The new services include facilities qualification and acquisition services of data centers, switching and routing facilities, and point of presence sites, comprehensive pre-market analysis leading to optimal site selection, expert lease negotiation and asset valuation and disposition. COLOTRAQ helps enterprise clients evaluate and implement every possible data center strategy ranging from managed hosting to complete business process outsourcing and colocation and internal data center operations.
COLOTRAQ can also assist service providers in developing successful strategies whether they are looking to expand capacity or enter into new markets. The B2B marketplace markets and brokers data center space throughout the continental US and parts of Europe, Asia, Middle East and Latin America.
"Not only do we have access to the same resources as the largest global real estate firms," says Dany Bouchedid, COLOTRAQ founder and CEO, "but we also maintain the largest database on available data center space around the world. This could only be achieved by being the only B2B marketplace of our kind for the last six years."

October 2009 - 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.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host

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.
