Microsoft Exchange hosting provider, today reported a 20 percent increase in year-over-year revenue and a 15 percent increase in the size of its customer base. The company attributes this growth to its continued focus on the customer experience, including development of its new DataEcho™ architecture that guarantees the safety and availability of customers’ Microsoft Exchange data.
In 2009, Intermedia was the first to market with hosted Exchange 2010, launching the service moments after Microsoft announced the availability of its Exchange Server 2010 software. Eighty-two percent of Intermedia’s new customers are choosing hosted Exchange 2010 over hosted Exchange 2007, which Intermedia continues to offer. Intermedia also made substantial investments in the service, support and proprietary technology it delivers around hosted Exchange and other communications services, a key source of the company’s differentiation versus niche hosting players and online service providers.

Intermedia is the premier provider of communications services, including hosted Microsoft Exchange, to small- and mid-sized businesses. For an affordable monthly fee, customers get business email, telephony, smartphones, instant messaging, fax and other communications delivered as a service with 24×7 support. Intermedia also empowers thousands of smaller VARs and MSPs — as well as select Fortune 500 companies — to sell communications services under their own brand. Founded in 1995, Intermedia was the first company to offer cloud-based business-class email and now has over 225,000 premium hosted Exchange mailboxes under management — more than any other provider.

The Internet has revolutionized the way we do business; and now there are more legitimate ways than ever to profit by partnering with industry leaders. As an unprecedented number of people turn to the Internet to pay their bills, expand their careers, or start up businesses, Superb Internet Corporation (www.superb.net) has responded by offering a new sales Affiliate Program that offers high-conversion sales and multiple ways to participate. Now there’s a program to fit every need, from the chance referral that leads to a high one-time payout, to the possibility of building an entire business based on referrals.
For 14 years, Superb Internet has been one of the most prominent web hosting companies in the industry. Superb has now designed a unique affiliate marketing program that provides optimal tools and flexibility for affiliates and Internet marketers to build multiple income streams.

FireHost, a secure Web hosting company, is making protection against Denial of Service and Distributed Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS) attacks available for all customers as a standard part of every secure hosting plan. The company is joining forces with RioRey, a leading worldwide DoS/DDoS mitigation provider, to give superior protection to all current and future customers against one of the most devastating kinds of cyber attacks a business can face.

“We fight DDoS attacks weekly and have worked hand-in-hand with RioRey in training our team and sharpening our attack policies,” said Chris Drake, CEO and founder of FireHost. “FireHost is absolutely committed to using premium solutions that protect SMBs from cyber attacks as dangerous as DDoS, and having a rock-solid team to back up the products.”

Dan Vertrees, senior vice president of sales and marketing at RioRey, goes on to say, “Most hosting companies either don’t offer protection against one of today’s most serious threats to IT Infrastructure, DDoS, or they offer it as an upgrade. RioRey believes the major reason behind FireHost’s massive growth is their willingness to invest in securing their clients Web presence as a standard, no exceptions. With the appropriate defenses in place, FireHost ensures its clients’ sites are always protected from attacks. That’s where RioRey’s technology comes in.”

Offering DoS/DDoS protection is no longer an option but a necessity for most SMBs. Especially those that provide B2B SaaS applications where critical data is housed, and businesses require maximum uptime and application availability. Even though Dos/DDoS attacks are less common than typical hacks, they give a painful punch when they occur. The financial impact to a business can be devastating, as well as the long-term damage to customer relations, corporate reputations and brand image.

FireHost has implemented the RioRey solution for all current customers, offering the same high level of DDoS protection for all of their secure Web hosting clients. RioRey offers superior DDoS protection over the competition by using a series of unique algorithms. This technology effectively blocks DDoS attacks at the perimeter of the network, detecting attacks and nullifying their effects within seconds. RioRey helps protect thousands of Web sites throughout Asia, Europe and North America.
