Hostway Announces Ho Ho Hosting for the Holidays

Chicago—December 19, 2003—In the spirit of the holiday season, Hostway, a leading provider of Web hosting services, announced it would give all new customers who sign up before December 31, 2003 free setup and one free month on its Web hosting and ecommerce plans.

"If you have been sitting on the fence about getting a Web site for yourself or for your business, this is a great chance to do so. Try our service for free for 30 days. There is no catch to our offer," said John Lee marketing director of Hostway. "We believe that every business and individual should have a Web site and we are making it possible by constantly improving our services to make it easy to get online, even for non-technical users."

Since the holidays are a time of giving, this hosting special reinforces the spirit of the season by giving new hosting customers an opportunity to discover how having a Web site can improve their lives. Potential recipients don’t have to worry about having been naughty or nice this past year since the offer is open to one and all, although Hostway encourages good will and kindness. The free setup and free month offer applies to all Web hosting and ecommerce yearly plans above the Value Plus plan and does not include the BizKit or BizKit Commerce plans. The setup fee waiver will be reflected when customers place their orders.

"We thought the holidays were the perfect time to treat new customers to a great deal," said John Lee. "People have been spending their hard-earned dollars on gifts for others, it’s a chance for them to receive something back. It’s also something they’ll potentially use the whole year through."

A pioneer in the hosting industry, Hostway is committed to delivering easy-to-use tools and solutions that increase value for its customers. Offering special promotions is another way Hostway provides customers with the resources they need to get their Web sites launched quickly, easily and affordably.
