iomart Hosting ends decade as chart topping UK managed hosting company

iomart Hosting is named as a Readers Choice by web hosting review sites on both sides of the Atlantic

iomart Hosting is delighted to announce that it has received formal public recognition from the readers of two respected web hosting industry sites as one of the UK’s leading managed hosting companies,

It was announced yesterday that iomart Hosting (www.iomarthosting.com)had achieved a ranking of 7 in HostReview’s Annual Readers Choice Award, the only European representative in the top 10.

Earlier this month, iomart Hosting ended the decade sitting atop a list of 25 major web hosting companies as “the most popular company” on the UK Dedicated Server Directory site.

Sarah Haran, Managing Director at iomart Hosting stated: “We are extremely pleased to have been recognised by the readers of both HostReview and Dedicated Server Directory in this way. It’s a ringing endorsement of the investment that we have made in our people, our infrastructure and the innovative hosting services that we design, deliver and manage on behalf of our growing customer base, over the past year”

Sarah added: “We are particularly delighted that our reputation as a quality managed hosting company appears to be extending overseas, and we are very proud to be the only non American Hosting operator to be included in HostReview’s Readers Top 10 for 2009. It represents a great end to the noughties for us and one which will inspire us to build upon our performance during 2010 and beyond.”

The HostReview Readers’ Choice Award is decided entirely by its readers and is independent of the judgment of any editorial team. During the month-long voting phase, thousands of HostReview’s visitors cast their votes for their favourite web hosting companies. Likewise the UK Dedicated Server Directory “25 Most Popular List” is also based on the number of votes a company receives from its readers.

Hostingunlimited.co.in Unveils the True Unlimited Web Hosting Plan

“Unlimited web hosting is a buzzword in today’s online world. With the very high competition and huge demand, many web hosting service providers have started to offer unlimited plans. For the moment of truth, most of the unlimited web hosting plans are just advertisement hypes and are not real. These unlimited hosting plans work according to the principle that there is a limit for everyone’s need. However, we, hostingunlimited.co.in are not restricting anything. With the introduction of this unlimited web hosting plan, people can get real limited Bandwidth, unlimited sub domains, unlimited accounts, unlimited database etc”, says Mr. Pranav Agrawal of Hostingunlimited.co.in(http://www.hostingunlimited.co.in).

He added that, “Most of the unlimited web hosting service providers are aware of the fact that no website will need a storage space of more than 500GB. Hence they just use the term unlimited web hosting even if the disk space is restricted to 500GB. The technology of websites is rapidly changing each day and the hosting demands will be very high in the future. 500GB or more will not be sufficient for the future websites with cutting edge technologies. The need of the real unlimited webhosting will be realized in the near future. That is why we are moving one step forward and started to offer the real unlimited web hosting package from now on.”

“The cheap web hosting (http://www.hostingunlimited.co.in) plans will also be continued in the future too.

Hostway Integrates AutomaticSiteMap to Boost Customers Search Traffic

In February, Hostway Corporation will begin rolling out to its 1.5 million retail and channel customers new technology that submits each page of their Web site directly to major search engines.

The integration with AutomaticSiteMap is part of Hostway’s strategy to deliver advanced online marketing technology at no cost to its customers. The agreement allows Hostway customers to receive AutomaticSiteMap’s basic service level, a $60 annual value, at no cost.
AutomaticSiteMap ensures that Google, Yahoo!, Bing and Ask.com have up-to-date, page-by-page information about every Hostway customers’ site without waiting for the search engines to find the content among millions of sites on the Web. Hostway is the first major Web hosting provider to integrate this new direct XML Sitemap submission technology, now recommended by all major search engines. Hostway customers will be able to manage their AutomaticSiteMap service (including optional expanded service levels) from within their Web hosting control panel.

“This is the only system we found that can handle Web site submission on a massive scale to boost search engine rankings for all our customers. AutomaticSiteMap is an exact fit with the other technologies and services we provide to help our customers make more money online,” said John Lee, Hostway’s senior vice president of small business hosting. “AutomaticSiteMap’s turnkey system is directly integrated into our control panel and automatically delivered to our customers so that they can increase search traffic without taking any additional action.”

“By making this a standard feature of all Web hosting plans, and automatically deploying it across their entire network, Hostway solves a common problem–getting traffic–for all its customers,” added AutomaticSiteMap Vice President of Business Development Troy McCasland. “Since introducing AutomaticSiteMap last year, tens of thousands of sites of all types and sizes have discovered a new and innovative way to get traffic and be more successful.”

Lee has seen the success firsthand. Before finalizing the partnership, Hostway product managers tested dozens of Web site submission products and found AutomaticSiteMap worked the best. One of the product managers tested AutomaticSiteMap on a personal Web site.

“Signup was simple, and within just hours my site started appearing in organic search results on Google and Yahoo!,” he said.

Lee added, “this is something all our customers need. It’s a great addition to our hosting plans and services.”

What does AutomaticSiteMap technology do?
AutomaticSiteMap’s service is new technology that helps Web sites and blogs boost search engine visibility, targeted site traffic and sales. The service crawls Web sites for content, even discovering pages, such as dynamic content not normally found by search engine crawlers. All pages are then automatically formatted into an XML Sitemap and directly submitted to the XML interface of major search engines such as Google, Yahoo!, and Bing. The service is completely Web-based, with no software to install. Customers manage their service using a feature-rich online dashboard that provides extensive reporting, search engine optimization data and recommendations.

AutomaticSiteMap for Hostway Customers
All Hostway’s retail customers will receive a no-cost, monthly AutomaticSiteMap account. No implementation steps are required as Hostway will automatically update each customer’s robots.txt file with the unique URL where AutomaticSiteMap will host the customer’s XML Sitemap file.
