Announces participation at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference.

The Planet, a privately held dedicated hosting company, today announced its participation at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference from July 7-10, 2008, at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston. The company states that it is a bronze-level conference sponsor and will showcase its hosting solutions and services at Booth 1114.

It claims that the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference provides a wide range of valuable resources for its partners. The event enables companies to leverage their Microsoft investment by sharing in future business opportunities, participating in hands-on training, and networking with other Microsoft teams and the extended partner community.

"As a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, we're honored to have our hometown of Houston as the host city for this year's Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference," said Steve Kahan, The Planet's Vice President of Marketing and Product Management.

"We will make a number of strategic announcements to coincide with the opening of the conference, since thousands of partners will be participating in this year's event. With representation both at our booth and as an invited guest in Microsoft's Hosting Pavilion, we invite partners, customers, prospects and friends to stop by either location where they can learn how to increase their profits by working with The Planet and its powerful Microsoft-centric hosting solutions," adds Steve.
