I’d like to start this entry by saying that in the past few months, HostingChoice has grown from a tiny particle in a galaxy of web hosts to what appears to be a medium-sized moon. Who knows, we may even become a registered planet (LLC) in the next few months.

Our growth has been stimulated by enormous interest in reseller plans, which have been made available to the general public. These plans have already been a huge success to the corporation and growth is now exponential as more and more people take interest in them.

All of our recent success has resulted in a strategic, somewhat dramatic, extremely sudden change in our business model. We now feature a “wide array” of Core™ 2 Duo servers for absolute maximum performance in a shared hosting environment. You can read about “the difference” here. We are ecstatic about this new change, and have received positive feedback from clients who talk about “increased speed, 200% faster MySQL queries, incredible responsiveness”, and overall “one hell of a server”.

The upgrade to the Core™ 2 Duo Difference was tiring and annoying (I could go all day), but 100% worth it. It was followed by software upgrades, security patches, and .php5 extentions for extended functionality in the realm of PHP.

As of now, everything is working flawlessly and all the maintenence we have been performing has come to a finish. Things are finally going well, and there is nothing ahead of us except growth.

We look forward to serving you in the future

Last night / this morning, I also upgraded our billing software, and began official work on FraudReview.org (description can be found below). Security upgrades were performed on other areas of the site and everything is running smooth.

I took one more RSS2 feed, from our billing software, and added it to our client support area. This can be seen at http://support.hostingchoice.net - located under “welcome” box.

I am proud to announce that HostingChoice is growing bigger every day.

Oh yeah, props to bwb, for leaving the first comment on our corporate blog (we haven’t had it for that long).

Cheers.

Tonight / this morning was a big day for HostingChoice. Much was done to various pages.

We have integrated and installed our affiliation software, iDevAffiliate, and it is now accessable through any page on the HC network. In addition, we have fixed our support center and re-enabled piping. We removed our IPB forums and added a new system, called Vanilla, which is open source, simple, and easy to use. An official NOC (Network Operations Center) blog was created for the sole purpose of our servers’ status. We updated our pages, including the index, which now has live RSS2 feeds from our NOC, blog, and forums.

We are also currently undergoing graphic changes, new images are being created to replace some of the old ones on our site. Stay tuned, there is certainly more to come in the future.

Don’t be held back.

Four simple words; one powerful meaning.

In the hosting industry, there are several hosts who offer more bandwidth and diskspace on a monthly basis than your average customer would use in a year.

My point being, these days it is all about the features … and at HostingChoice, we understand that. At HostingChoice, we don’t hold you back.

Josh Warren, the HostingChoice Vice President, has left the company after approximately one year of service. Earlier this afternoon, Josh and I had a lengthy conversation which ended with his withdrawal. In the end, he realized that web hosting wasn’t for him and he didn’t feel as if he had a future in the industry. All exit procedures have been performed and company operations will suffer no impact as a result of his withdrawal.
