Under the alliance, the hosting firm will be the official host of Seattle24x7.com.

Adhost Internet, a provider of colocation and shared server hosting in downtown Seattle, and Seattle24x7.com, Seattle's business and technology online community and news site, today announced that they have formed an alliance.

Under the agreement, Adhost will be the official host of Seattle24x7.com, while Seattle24x7 will provide Adhost clients a venue for keeping up-to-date on local technology news, an online directory of Seattle-area Internet companies and a place to post job notices.

"For years we've posted our news and jobs on seattle24x7.com but never knew the people behind the site until we bumped into Larry at a Search Engine Watch event last spring," said Will Riffle, President and CEO of Adhost. "We're excited to partner with Seattle24x7.com to provide the Seattle community and our clients with local Internet news, events and a jobs board."

"Adhost is a landmark on the Seattle Internet scene, not only for its world-class operations at Fisher Plaza but in terms of its presence in support of the Northwest Internet community," stated Larry Sivitz, Managing Editor of Seattle24x7.
