“Our free hosting offer is without question one of a kind,” said Joe Roche, Director of Marketing for i6 Networks. “High quality, feature-rich free hosting is a rare commodity by all means, and we are proud to offer it. We have many servers that are sitting on our racks unused, and we plan to use these servers to host quality established web sites that serve a purpose and contribute to the Web,” said Roche. “In short, we'd like to be an open-source hosting company providing a free service to the community.”
