Also launches new VPS plans and enhancements for resellers.

Verio, a subsidiary of NTT Communications and a managed hosting solutions provider, yesterday announced promotions for its viaVerio reseller program.

Verio is offering free setup for new and existing resellers serving the SMB market who purchase Verio's Virtual Private Server version 2 (VPS v2) or Managed Private Server v2 - a value of $495 - and up to $500 in free migration services when new resellers join the company's viaVerio reseller program. Additionally, new resellers are eligible to receive their first three months of service for free.

Verio also announced a new entry-level plan for resellers for its Virtual Private Server v2 (VPS) hosting solution, VPS v2 Basic, as well as new disk space increases on its entire Verio VPS v2 product line.

"The focus on our reseller and partner channels has always been an important element to Verio's overall business strategy," said Jim Ciampaglio, Director of SMB reseller sales for the viaVerio program. "We believe these promotions give new and existing resellers another great incentive to become part of Verio's strong network of partners while growing their business at the same time."
