Omega Communications Seeking to Buy Web Hosting Companies

Omega Communications Inc., one of Connecticut's largest independent Internet Service Providers, successfully acquired two web-hosting companies through 2004 and continues to seek smaller to mid-size web hosting companies in 2005.

In 2004, Southington, CT based Omega Communications Inc. shifted into acquisition mode and acquired two web-hosting companies. The customer base of each of the two acquired companies was successfully migrated into Omega's existing infrastructure in a minimal time period and nearly transparent to the customer base. The two companies consisted of roughly 2,000 customers with a variety of web hosting, Internet and email services.

"The two acquisitions in 2004 were a success mainly because of the due diligence that took place and the overall staff at Omega", says Greg Angelillo, VP Business Development. "The technical and finance staff were pivotal to the success and without the extra efforts from each employee, the migration onto our data center servers and our billing software could have been a nightmare for us as well as our new customers", Angelillo adds.

The web hosting industry is a very saturated industry with many "virtual" hosting companies. These "virtual" web-hosting companies are mainly made up of resellers of other web-hosting companies who then rely on third parties for their billing, customer care and technical services. Omega is a brick-and-mortar ISP with all of these services, and more, in-house. If a service Omega provides its customer base goes down, they are not at the mercy of any third party and potential off-shore company.

Omega's experienced and certified engineers diagnose and repair downages in house. Omega's committed up-time for hosting services to its customers is 99.9%. That means that if you host a website at Omega, it will be available to the Internet 99.9% of the time. Omega also provides its customers with a 24/7, toll-free customer care hotline.

Omega prides itself in offering the best possible web-hosting and web development services, at the best possible price, with the best possible customer care.

Omega's goal is to acquire several more web hosting companies over the next 12-24 months. Interested parties should visit www.omegacomminc.com/buy-isp.html, or contact Greg Angelillo at 860-276-8504, option 1, extension 101.
