News: Web Hosting Sales and Promos - March 12 2010
July 1, 2003 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Verio (verio.com) announced today the immediate availability of the "Here Today, Here Tomorrow" Migration Program. Under the promotion, new customers will receive up to three months of free colocation and dedicated Web hosting services including hardware installation and immediate migration to a NTT/Verio premier data center.
Verio also announced it will provide up to $20,000 in site migration and related professional services free of charge.
The promotion is the latest in a growing line of special deals drawn up by hosts looking to attract customers transitioning their services from distressed providers.
"Given the recent fallout of some Web hosting service providers in the market, many businesses are fearful they will be stranded or sold off to another provider that may not have the capability set to handle their solutions, or for whom hosting may be an afterthought," said Isabel Ehringer, president of Verio's Enterprise Hosting Business Unit. "We make the transition of businesses' data centers or failed providers both simple and seamless and ensure that the customer benefits from the skill set, experience and products and services of Verio to complete their solution needs."
Verio, an NTT subsidiary, is a provider of global IP solutions to the enterprise market, including Web hosting, dedicated access, virtual private networks and managed services.

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.
