Host Color (hostcolor.com), a leading
hosting provider on the shared web hosting market has
reached an agreement to acquire 60 Host (60host.com)
- a small budget web hosting company. Recently 60 Host
installed the new Next Color control panel developed
and owned by Host Color LLC.
60 Host is a smaller web hosting company
with about 500 customers that targets small business
website owners. The company offers one standard web
hosting plan that includes 600 Mb of web space and 6
GB monthy bandwidth. After the acquisition Host Color
LLC will add more features to 60Host's standard hosting
plan such as Secure Shell, Site optimization service
and etc.
"We have been attracted by the
positive image that 60 Host has built. Although it is
a small company they have succeeded to target their
market very effectively and we believe we could develop
this hosting brand even more", says the Host Color's
Executive Director Vesselin Drangajov.
Offering a single web hosting plan may
be considered risky because potential customers have
their choices reduced. The main advantage however is
that customers can make a prompt decision over the purchase.
It also allows the company to easily define the production
costs and to optimize the service process, support and
it's own administrative work. Some of the industry leaders
provide only one web hosting plan. We have decided to
test this business model. At the same time we want to
keep providing different web hosting plans under our
parent brand of HostColor. We decided to go out on the
market and to search for a small host with a good reputation
- and we came to 60host.
We are going to contribute our know-how
to the process of delivering 60Host's service. We will
also install our new sofware to serve 60Host packages.
Host Color LLC will however keep 60Host's business model
and the price in stay in the budget service area - under
$5 per month.
