WebHelps CEO, Michelle Wilbers, had this to say about the new hosting service, `We will continue to offer a free web site to customers, but have added a `bare bones` traditional hosting plan priced at just $1.59/month in order to have available a plan that almost anyone can afford. Our new hosting plans give customers more choices, more service options, and more flexibility in managing their sites. Traditional hosting plans are a critical component of a comprehensive end-to-end web service and we are excited to be offering this through Hostopia. Hostopia`s 99.9% up-time guarantee assures us of being able to provide a reliable hosting solution, and their wide variety of plan options, applications, and service add-ons means we`ll be able to meet all our customers` hosting needs. Although our interactive add-ons can be seamlessly linked to any web site hosted anywhere, our customers have been asking us to provide traditional hosting plan so they might keep all their site building, marketing, maintenance, and administration tools in one place. We are very excited about our partnership with Hostopia, as it brings us one step closer to providing this `one-stop shop` to our customers.`
