- New site
- New panel
- New products
A2 Hosting is now Hosting.com with a brand new site promising new features and an updated hosting panel.
Hosting.com started life as A2 host in 2001. The (old) name is a reflection of the place where it all started, Ann Arbor, in Michigan. The company was founded by Bryan Muthig and grew into a successful hosting company that hosted 2 m+ sites in over 40+ locations.
On the surprise transition, CEO SEB de Lamos, “Super excited, said that A2 host, who has been this paramount for so long to host performance, amazing customer support and so much more that we have been able to take it and turn it into something that leads it to the next level.”
The move is a reflection of the growth that Hosting.com has maintained and alleged to increase the brand that increases global recognition and builds a larger interconnected society that will provide more opportunities to connect and learn.
Different name same values
Change can be scary, but Hosting.com soothes users, “While our name is changing is our dedication to providing great support and the reliable products you expected remain the same.” Adding, “You still have access to the same robust hosting solutions and the same team of experts ready to help you 24/7.”
In a blog post, Hosting.com emphasizes that this is not about giving up roots, but rather expanding and growing the business on a global scene. The core values of reliability, speed and customer satisfaction in the heart of A2 hosting remain in Hosting.com.
Along with the different name, Hosting.com says other changes include greater resources that will be invested in infrastructure and technology to better support customer needs.
There will also be a new hosting panel. At first glance it seems a lot to have changed. Product names are new, the features included in plans are different, and older products such as dedicated hosting are hidden from the homepage.
Hidden services still exist, you just need to find them via Site: Hosting.com via Google because they are not easily accessible from the website. For example, a hosting.com user reported to be disappointed not to be able to find node.js hosting, but a quick place: hosting.com “node.js” reveals that this is still a service from Hosting.com.
This is a significant rebrand for Hosting.com, and I look forward to reviewing new products and services and seeing if the changes can deliver the promise of improved hosting functions and infrastructure of an already well -known and desired host.
