CeraNet
Grows Web Hosting Business with Acquisitions
[17th December 2003]
CeraNet Inc. continues to deliver innovative,
technology-laden solutions to its clients to help them
solve complex business issues the easiest and most economical
ways. CeraNet recently completed a pair of acquisitions
that help to increase its customer base by more than
20%. Introduction of an enhanced web site error tracking
and correction system for its customers, as well as
24 hour a day, 7 day a week live support have increased
customer satisfaction to an all time high. These new
clients and systems help to solidify CeraNet’s
position as a leader for managed web hosting business.
CeraNet (www.cera.net) has acquired
the hosting clients and assets of two hosting providers
in the Midwest and Southeast United States. The clients
will be migrated into an existing data center in their
Columbus, Ohio, headquarters.
“Our recent acquisitions allow
us to grow our customer base at an effective cost, without
the expense and uncertainty of traditional advertising,”
said Jason Harris, executive vice-president of CeraNet,
Inc. “These clients will allow us to continue
to grow our managed web hosting business unit and expand
our potential base for future applications and services.”
CeraNet provides managed web hosting
solutions for small to medium sized businesses that
need personalized service and support. “Our hosting
services are designed to allow our clients to have the
benefits of a completely dedicated IT staff for their
web services, email, and applications, at a fraction
of the price,” Harris added. “There are
many hosting companies out there that you can get unlimited
bandwidth and storage for $1.99 a month, but they do
not and cannot provide personalized service and support
that most businesses desire.”
According to a recent report by technology
analyst firm Gartner, Inc., the web hosting business
is due to grow 5 to 6 fold in the next four years; with
a significant increase in the percentage of businesses
looking for fully managed web, email, and application
hosting services from a primary technology partner.
Each CeraNet web hosting client can
customize their services according to their exact business
needs. They can choose from different service levels,
support applications such as error tracking and correction
for their web site, feature rich easy to use applications
such as a newsletter, message board, or e-commerce,
and more. Account pricing starts at $89.00 per year
and can run into the tens of thousands per month depending
on individual requirements.
