Providence, Utah (PRWEB) May 21, 2007 -- WestHost Inc., a leading Web hosting provider (http://www.westhost.com), announced the successful launch of a major upgrade to its hosting systems. Under development for over a year, the new platform introduces improved server resource management, a redesigned control panel and a solid basis for future deployments.
The third major upgrade in the company's nine year history, the new platform, based on RedHat ES 4, introduces substantial performance and reliability enhancements. In particular, Quality of Service (QoS) technology guarantees each hosting account a fair share of server processing power to ensure reliable Web site responsiveness. Additionally, a more user-friendly Site Manager combines a new graphically appealing interface with a simplified navigation scheme.
"We carefully listened to our client base in implementing changes to Site Manager, along with targeting our performance improvements," said Chris Russell, CEO of WestHost. "In addition, the new platform allows WestHost to remain at the industry forefront, offering the latest solutions at the best possible value to our clients."
In conjunction with this system upgrade, WestHost now offers significantly improved shared, reseller and dedicated server hosting plans. In most cases, disk space and bandwidth more than doubled while plan prices remained the same--still providing the best in overall features, performance and price in the hosting industry. In addition, MediaWiki, a fully-featured application for building a Wiki-based site now comes standard on any Starter hosting plan and above. The Business Pro plan now includes the Helix DNA Server, a robust media streaming service for RealAudio, RealVideo and MP3 files.
Pricing and Availability
Hosting plans on the new platform are available now. Personal Hosting plans start at $3.95 per month while their Business Hosting plans begin at $7.95 per month. Managed dedicated servers and reseller plans are also available. All are supported by WestHost Virtual Private Server (VPS) technology. Plans include Website Creator, the improved Site Manager control panel, a dedicated IP address, site statistics, multiple domain support, 24/7/365 REAL technical support, along with a diverse selection of Web site applications. All WestHost VPS shared hosting plans offer a 30-day money-back guarantee.
