FatCow™ Celebrates Fifth Anniversary By Increasing Disk Space And Bandwidth

anonymous writes "Now Offering 500 MB of Disk Space and 25GB of Monthly Transfer Per User, Service Goes Up—But Monthly Price Doesn’t ALBUQUERQUE, NM, - (DATE) – At a time when many web hosting service providers are losing customers, raising prices, or going out of business altogether, FatCow, one of the original and leading shared web hosting providers in the U.S., announced today it is celebrating its fifth anniversary in business. To mark this remarkable accomplishment in the web hosting industry—as well as to honor its passing of the 25,000-customer milestone, another major achievement—FatCow is increasing the storage space and monthly file transfer available to each plan subscriber to 500 megabytes and 25 gigabytes effective immediately, with no increase in monthly cost.

“FatCow has become one of America’s premier providers of web hosting and related services. We’re growing, we’re consistently profitable, and we continue to create incredibly loyal customers in nearly 100 countries around the world. Those are truly achievements to celebrate,” said Peter Ziesmann, marketing and development director for FatCow. “Our plan size increase is just one tangible way we can thank all those small businesses who have responded to our vision for a simple and innovative web hosting alternative.”

Since 1998, FatCow has led the industry via its “one plan, one price” business approach. Unlike other providers that confuse customers with multi-level plans and bewildering ala carte services, FatCow offers small businesses reliable web hosting for just $99 per year—backed by the best personal service available anywhere.

FatCow’s new offering applies to all existing and new accounts. Disk space comprises the amount of storage required for all website pages, email and access logs. The new plan will accommodate as many as 5,000 average HTML pages*. For the $99 yearly fee, each website also includes 25 GB of transfer—enough for 262,144 pages of downloads a month*.

FatCow subscribers also benefit from their own Customer Control Panel. Accessible anywhere, from any web browser, the password-protected Control Panel provides usage statistics, a shopping cart wizard, Perl script checker, and other administrative tools to make managing and improving a website as easy for subscribers as possible.

Rewards Increased

To further celebrate its five years in business, FatCow is increasing the rewards in its affiliate program from $5 to $25! Every time a current affiliate brings a new account to FatCow—typically via click-through from a FatCow link on the customer’s website—the affiliate receives $25 in cash.
