Provides free domain registration with each hosting account.

AIT, a web hosting provider, announced today that it is providing free domain registration with each hosting account.

According to the company, the growth of the internet as an economic and social force, nearly 80-90million domain names are registered worldwide. At the same time, millions of small businesses in the US still lack web sites, cutting themselves off from a potential global market and also limiting their reach domestically.  
 
“Even consumers who don't buy online use the Internet for research, comparing vendors and prices, and looking beyond their local market for the best deal,” said the company's CFO Steve Young.

“This is a no-risk means of establishing an online identity, so business owners can see for themselves the value of reaching new markets,” said Clarence Briggs, AIT's Chief Executive Officer.  “Their only investment is the monthly hosting fee and that's as small as pennies per day; the domain name can be theirs forever.”
