December 20, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider HostICan (hostican.com) announced on Thursday it is increasing the memory of its VPS plans by 50 percent.
The Web host's VPS-Rage hosting plan, which runs cPanel/WHM, will expand from 30GB of hard disk space to 45GB.
Meanwhile, the VPS-Extreme plan will increase from 60GB to 90GB, which HostICan says will make it one of the largest VPS plans on the market.
"While shared hosting services have been upgrading their hosting plans, sometimes with extravagant claims that cannot be supported, the VPS market has been quite stagnant in its approach to value," says Denis Motova, affiliate and operations manager for HostICan. "With our upgraded plans, our new customers can enjoy more memory and hard drive storage, while paying less for both."

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.
