Verio Announces A New Category Of Webhosting - Delivering Enterprise-Level Hosting At A Small Business Price

First of its kind offering to provide simple-to-use webhosting solutions with isolated resources designed specifically for the SMB

Denver, CO - September 14, 2009 - Verio Inc., the leading provider in delivering online business solutions to SMBs worldwide, including web hosting, application hosting and Software as a Service (SaaS), today announced Advanced Business Hosting, a new category of webhosting that provides enterprise level hosting at a small business price. Utilizing their underlying Virtual Private Server (VPS) technology, Verio’s Advanced Business Hosting provides customers with dedicated containers that are individually optimized for web, email and database functionality and are isolated from other Verio customers all at a price similar to traditional Shared hosting plans. This new category of hosting provides a company with superior performance, security and reliability.

More and more small and mid-sized companies are looking to move to the next level of online performance, especially as challenging economic times make it essential to sharpen business practices in an affordable way,” said Ray Boggs, Vice President of SMB Research for IDC. “As they integrate more online functions into their core business, SMBs have a growing need for secure and reliable hosting, making resources like those from Verio increasingly important for long term success.”

Verio’s Advanced Business Hosting

Understanding the needs of today’s small and medium sized businesses, Verio’s Advanced Business Hosting is the first offering of this kind to provide simple-to-use hosting solutions with enterprise-caliber performance - like isolated resources and multi-site capabilities-at an economical price. This new offering will give SMBs the confidence to host business critical applications that require a more secure environment and go beyond a standard informational website and use hosting as the tool that integrates their business with their website.

Key Benefits of Verio’s Advanced Business Hosting include:

Scalability – this unique architecture ensures that your website grows as your business needs grow. No need to migrate to a new plan if you outgrow your current solution, Advance Business Hosting is scalable and will grow with you as your future business needs increase.
More secure -every Advanced Business Hosting account includes security-hardened applications, secure email, security monitoring and automatic patches and updates, providing customers with more security than a traditional Shared hosting plan.
More reliable -private resources separate a website from other sites on the server. Resource drains like high traffic, email demands or a corrupt database from other websites will not affect performance.
Simplicity -turn-key hosting solutions that are easily managed from an intuitive Control Panel. All Advanced Business Hosting accounts include everything required by a small business to get started. Choose either Windows operating system or Linux, as well as popular applications like EasySite web design tools, web marketing tools and more.
Support for multiple, unique websites and multiple domains within the same account plan - this allows a company to grow and expand their website needs over time with the same simple control panel/experience, and no additional hassle or migrating to a new plan.
Enterprise-level, hosting at a small business price - all plans feature isolated, private resources for web, email, database and bandwidth. This caliber of hosting that was once only available to businesses with an in-house IT staff, is now available to everyone.

Advanced Business Hosting offers three unique plans to meet the needs of today’s SMB market:

Foundation Web – $9.95; Ideal for businesses with a simple need for a turn-key solution to host their web site. Private email and web server space and the ability to host up to 4 unique web sites.
