Adds features like increased web space and 2 GB email storage; introduces 1&1 Linux Beginner and 1&1 Microsoft Beginner.
1&1 Internet, Inc., today announced that it has increased the features of its shared web hosting packages without raising prices.
1&1 claims that the new initiative is the latest step in a
value-add campaign it began in September when it announced similar
comprehensive feature additions to its domain registration packages
with no price increases. The company's various web hosting plans will
now include increased web space, greater traffic allowances, more
databases and 2GB email storage. Additionally, it will provide ASP or
PHP scripting support with all its packages, along with free .info
domain registrations--in addition to the free .com, .net and .org
domain registrations the plans previously featured. The company has
also introduced two new entry level products: 1&1 Linux Beginner
and 1&1 Microsoft Beginner.
1&1 Chairman Andreas Gauger says, "We are in a position of
strength in the industry, and that allows us to offer packages with all
of these features at a very low cost and still be profitable."
