Hello James! First off, Web Host Ranking would like to thank you for taking the time to introduce yourself and your company to our readers. Please introduce yourself to our readers and what is your role at HostMonster?
I am the VP of business Development for HostMonster web hosting and have been with the company for three years. In this role I handle all of the marketing initiatives and corporate partnerships.
How long have your been in the web hosting business and how does that benefit HostMonster?
I have been working in the hosting industry for the past six years and in online marketing since 1997. My marketing background has helped me in determining the best methods for promoting and branding HostMonster online.
Your website says that HostMonster specializes in customer satisfaction. Could elaborate on that please?
HostMonster strives to provide the highest level of customer support in our industry. Our support team is based here in the USA at our Provo, UT headquarters. We are available 24/7 to our customers via phone, online chat or helpdesk and the average hold time is under 30 seconds. We also offer an anytime money back guarantee on our services.
There are lots of web hosting companies out there that cater to a specific group. Who is going to benefit the most from HostMonster and what do you think is HostMonster’s target audience?
HostMonster is a shared hosting platform. What this means is that we host multiple websites on the same server and all customers share the resources. The system is built for websites that are smaller in scale, yet we can handle anything from a simple blog up to a full-blown e-commerce system on our services. We cater to the do-it-yourself crowd who wants the tools and space and then they can build and manage their site while letting us take care of the background services such as hosting and bandwidth.
HostMonster has grown a lot over the last couple years. What has been the main reason for that and how does HostMonster plan on growing even more to become the top web hosting provider?
The past three years have been exciting. We have grown to over 800,000 websites hosted in just a short few years. HostMonster can attribute that growth to amazing customers who tell their friends about us. Word of mouth has and always be the main way we grow.
In general where do you think the web hosting industry is moving towards?
The general trend has been consolidation over the past few years. While most of our competitors have been consolidating, we have simply continued growing and have become one of the largest hosting companies in the world. We plan to continue expanding and growing for many years to come.
