provides SOHO customers with Email and File Hosting
[20th February]
Toronto,
Ontario --- February 20, 2003 - myhosting.com™,
a leading global provider of affordable and superior
web and application hosting services and a brand of
SoftCom Technology Consulting Inc., announces a series
of new features and service enhancements to its web
hosting portfolio. Among the service advancements is
the introduction of Email and File Hosting plans for
the consumer, SOHO, and small business customer.
“Customers have long been demanding
an affordable, web hosting service that understands
the needs of today’s small business environment,”
says Tony Yustein, CEO of SoftCom Technology Consulting
Inc. “We recognized that our customers were looking
for scalable, reliable and affordable email and file
hosting solutions. These new product offerings, combined
with enhancement of existing myhosting.com™ products
exceeds the needs of our current customer base and positions
us to grow our share of the global hosting market.”
Unlike traditional email services such
as Yahoo© and Hotmail© that only provide for
anonymous email services, the new Email Hosting plan
from myhosting.com™ allows customers to establish
unique email addresses on the Internet, thereby associating
their name to a specific domain (e.g. myname@mydomain.com).
This new service will be marketed through mail2web.com™,
a web-based remote email retrieval application with
over 100 million monthly page views and a wholly-owned
product from SoftCom Technology Consulting Inc.
The Company’s new File Hosting
plan is suitable for customers who are seeking a remote
file repository, interested in creating and hosting
a virtual photo album or those seeking to build a less
sophisticated, more economical business card-style Website.
The new Email Hosting Plan on myhosting.com™
is available for US$2.95/month, while the Company’s
new File Hosting Plan will sell for US$4.95/month.
Other new features at myhosting.com™
include a Web Album and File Manager tool. Accessible
from the web-based Control Panel, these management tools
are available free to all hosting customers. As well,
customers familiar with myhosting.com™ will notice
enhancements to many of the sites’ core services,
including upgrades to the Shared and Dedicated hosting
plans that now feature increased disk space, multiple
email accounts and enhanced database features. The web-based
Control Panel has also undergone a change, now boasting
improved functionality and navigation to simplify the
hosting experience for new and existing customers. All
of these new services will be marketed online through
leading web and application hosting search engines.
“The addition of two new hosting
products and services is part of an ongoing commitment
by the company to deliver reliable, scalable and affordable
hosting solutions globally,” says SoftCom Vice-President,
Sales and Marketing, Michael Carr. “By launching
new products and services and by enhancing our existing
offering, myhosting.com™ customers enjoy solutions
that match their particular needs, solutions that can
grow with their business.”
