July 21st, 2008
Popular Hosting Company Tops Monthly List from Respected Internet Monitoring Site
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.
OVERLAND PARK, KS - July 21, 2008 - Aplus.Net, a leading web hosting company and Internet solutions provider, has been named the Most Reliable Hosting Company Site for June 2008 by Netcraft, a respected Internet research, security and uptime monitoring company based in the U.K.
The closely watched list is widely regarded as one of the industry's most accurate indicators regarding excellence in web hosting performance and uptime. Per the Netcraft website, the top spot is determined based upon the rigorous testing of "response times of fifty leading hosting providers' sites. The performance measurements are made at fifteen minute intervals from separate points around the internet, and averages are calculated over the immediately preceding 24 hour period."
"The percentage of failed requests is more pertinent than outages on hosting companies' own sites, as this gives a pointer to reliability of routing," the website also states.
"We're very proud to have been singled out by such an authoritative source as Netcraft," commented Gabriel Murphy, Aplus.Net's President and CEO. "We work hard to make sure we're providing the very best in service for our customers, and it's great to have those efforts validated by such a respected source."
Netcraft has been providing Internet research and analysis since 1995 and is commonly considered to be one of the world's foremost authorities on the market share of hosting providers, web servers, ISPs, eCommerce, encryption and content technologies, and more.
