Providence, Rhode Island, October 9, 2001 – ReCellar.com, the web’s most comprehensive resource for web hosting resellers, has been replaced by ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com). Complete with a new look and a host of new features, ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com) includes all of the original ReCellar.com tools and content that resellers across the web hosting industry have come to depend on.
According to founder Will Smith, the new name much more accurately conveys the site’s content and purpose. “As the web’s first, largest, and most trafficked web hosting reseller portal,” says Smith, “ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com) connects resellers with information, tools, and each other.”
Building on the already existing ReCellar.com content, features, and audience, ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com) is positioned to grow aggressively as it expands its capabilities and user base. Launched in 1999 as the first site on the web to cater specifically to the needs of web hosting resellers, ReCellar.com developed a reputation as the “web hosting directory for resellers” and garnered a following throughout the web hosting industry. Now, as ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com), the site will capitalize on its unique position through a constant expansion of features and content.
All of the popular features that made ReCellar.com a success have been enhanced on ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com). The reseller plan catalogue contains more than four hundred and fifty reseller plans and is searchable by forty different criteria. The database of reviews has grown to almost one thousand. The Request For Quote (RFQ) capabilities, which allow web hosting companies to bid for prospective resellers’ business, are used daily to pair hosts with would-be resellers. Among the new ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com) features are the International Reseller Directory, interviews with web hosting company executives, press release archives, and an expanded number of showcase categories, including Private Label Reselling, Hot Reseller Programs, Windows Reselling, Unix Reselling, Dedicated Servers, and Managed Servers.
The site’s focus on the web hosting reseller niche has always been its strongest asset. According to Smith, resellers bring web hosting companies clients from markets that would otherwise be prohibitively expensive to obtain. As such, they comprise an extremely valuable subset of the web hosting industry, and one whose unique needs and marketplace position demand an outlet for information, communication, and resources. “When we started ReCellar.com in January of 1999,” says Smith, “we said to ourselves, ‘Resellers drive one of the fastest growing and most lucrative technology industries in the world today, and yet there is no web site or centralized resource targeting them. While there are “web hosting directories” that provide hosting content and features, none focus on resellers exclusively.’ ReCellar.com filled that void, and its second incarnation, ResellerConnection.com (http://www.resellerconnection.com), will continue to do so—more aggressively, comprehensively, and interactively.”
