Muahaha, ***** fears they will crash like these, read what the faggos has to say:
No big, bad “B” in *****’s future – company fiscally sound and growing.
Lack of debt and solid finances position firm far away from problems plaguing other companies.
BEDFORD, TX (Jan. 4, 2002) - The big, bad “B” landed squarely on the heads of Enron, K-Mart and Global Crossing last month, as each declared bankruptcy and now faces an uncertain future.
Could the ghosts of negative market forces and overblown profit statements also come to haunt *****?
"Not a chance," says Christopher Faulkner, CEO, who birthed ***** and has raised the web hosting company since it was a pup in his college dorm room.
“We are growing even faster than we were a year ago,” said Faulkner, who turned 25 in December amidst one of *****’s best months. “Our finances are as sound and secure as our robust network. The future is bright.”
A combination of forces and business decisions has given ***** the solid foundation that has enabled it not only to withstand, but to thrive in the unsettled economic climate that has forced other firms to cut back, withdraw and sometimes fold their tents.
“We were able to plough all the revenues back into the company long enough for it to get its sea legs,” Faulkner said. “We have no long-term debt. We have never had to rely on outside venture capital. All of our facilities are wholly owned and operated by us.”
***** signed up its 100,000 client near the end of May 2001, about three and a half years after it was founded. At that time, it was gaining 5,000 new clients a month and had the lowest churn rate in the industry. Since then it has added nearly 50,000 new clients, or more than 6,250 a month. The churn rate remains low, and ***** is on track to add its 150,000th client sometime in February.
“We put the customer first, always,” Faulkner said. “That means that we have a broad range of services to fit the budget of even the smallest companies and to meet the needs of the largest. Our customer relations management program is backed by an aggressive quality control system that I personally monitor.”
***** has also showed its mettle by working around the clock to protect its clients. It was one of the few to completely patch its servers against Code Red, sparing its customers most of the headaches of that worm. Its robust, redundant network means less downtime and more protection from hacker attacks.
That attention to detail, emphasis on security and focus on the consumer, combined with exquisite marketing acumen, has enabled ***** to reach its target market, give them what their business needs to survive, and keep them satisfied.
One of its most popular products, “e-Business in a Box,” for example, enables a company to have its e-business up and running, with a custom-made web site and cutting edge Internet tools within seven days, and to receive web hosting for a year for only $299. It’s available online, has been auctioned on eBay, is sold by TigerDirect and comes with a dozen red roses for Valentine’s Day.
*****’s revenues are in the $30 millions, up from the $20 millions a year ago, Faulkner said. The company has 159 employees serving 149,000 customers in more than 179 countries worldwide.
***** opened its first data center, a multi-million facility, in Bedford in 1999. Since then, it has opened a data center in Los Angeles, sales offices in Baltimore and Chicago, and will open a data center in London in March. More centers are scheduled to open in Germany, India and Japan within the next year.
At the same time, ***** is involved in the community. It offered free web sites for the families of the September 11 terrorist attack and is providing a free web site to the Miss Fort Worth USA Contest, scheduled for the end of February. Faulkner is on the board of the United Federation of ChildSafe Web Sites, (UFCWS), whose site is also hosted by *****.
“The old adage is that one can do well by doing good,” Faulkner said. “We have been blessed with a solid business and we enjoy sharing our success with others and helping other companies prosper.”
I dont buy this crap
