October 7, 2003 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- SWsoft (sw-soft.com) announced today that Infopop Corporation (infopop.com), a Seattle-based Web hosting provider and developer of online communities, has selected its hosting automation solution HSPcomplete to replace its existing solution.
Ted O'Neill, CEO of Infopop, said the decision to migrate was based on scalability and infrastructure.
"HSPcomplete makes perfect sense for Infopop because we can quickly and simply generate more revenue by offering new products and services such as VPS, managed hosting and managed applications, giving our customers more options and making us a one-stop-shop for all of our customers' hosting needs," O'Neill said.
SWsoft said deployment of HSPcomplete helps companies like Infopop minimize support and management costs while generating revenue streams and boosting profitability.
?In today's competitive market, Hosting Service Providers (HSPs) cannot be over-burdened by high hardware management and customer support costs," said Serguei Beloussov, CEO of SWsoft. "HSPcomplete gives industry leaders like Infopop the ability to optimize efficiencies throughout its hosting business while identifying new services that will differentiate its offerings from the competition, ensuring the opportunity for long-term and steady growth. With HSPcomplete's integrated flexible billing features providers also have the ability to develop a multi-tiered sales and service channel that can be re-branded for various resellers. "
Infopop previously used Ensim ServeXchange. About Web Services (about.com) recently announced it would deploy HSPcomplete.

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.
