May 10, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Jumpline.com (jumpline.com) announced on Wednesday that it is launching a promotion in celebration of its tenth year in the business.
Jumpline says it is launching a progressive dedicated server offering to complement its existing shared and VDS hosting models. All Jumpline dedicated servers will come pre-installed with the Sphera SaaS delivery suite, which provides key components to building a successful SaaS business, says the company.
"Very few private hosting companies have lasted 10 years. We value our independence and loyal clientele and after 10 years we remain debt free and profitable," says Bob Kaufman, executive VP of Jumpline. "The organic growth of Jumpline over the past decade has put us in the driver's seat and enables us to happily reject all suitors. The next 10 years will be even better."
Founded in April of 1997 by former high school classmates Marc Hardgrove, Bob Kaufman and Rick Barber, Jumpline says it currently hosts over 20,000 Web sites.

July 2010 - What's Next? Forecasting Hosting's Future
Technically, there's nothing new about us posing the question, "what are the next steps hosting providers must take to capitalize on the opportunities available in the business?"

In this particular case, however, we're looking at it through an extremely significant contextual lens. That is, for much of the last two years, hosting providers have been operating in a business climate defined by an economy in crisis.

March 2010 - Web Hosting in Europe
Europe cuts an interesting figure in our coverage of the web hosting industry. From a purely news standpoint, it is very possible to treat Europe in more or less the same way that we treat North America - that is, report the facts, ask the right questions, try to anticipate the issues raised. From an analytical standpoint, however, we present a distinctly North American point of view - this being the product of circumstances (our location), rather than a bias.

January 2010 - Hottest Hosts Directory
In 2008, in our inaugural Hottest Hosts guide, I wrote that we were exploring a new format with the first in-print directory of web hosting services. And last year, I discussed the project in the context of an ongoing project, and a growing tradition here at the Web Host Industry Review. The objective, however, is not to repeat ourselves, but to help the directory evolve into a more valuable resource - something that's going to help you with your purchasing decisions, and something you're going to hold on to for the duration of the year.
