Tampa, Florida – (The Hosting News) – February 9, 2009 – Dedicated hosting provider, Hivelocity.net, has been named ‘Best Dedicated Windows Host,’ as the third hosting award the company has received in the last year for its dedicated Windows servers.

WebHostDir collects thousands of votes each month on a range of hosting services. Each month a winner is announced based on the sum of votes in each category.

Hivelocity attributes the numerous Windows hosting awards it has received to the wide range of Microsoft products offered as well as its ability to provide superior support on these products. As an official Microsoft Service Provider, Hivelocity enables customers to efficiently run any Microsoft based application. By partnering with Hivelocity customers are able to lower their operating costs by taking full advantage of Hivelocity’s Microsoft partner pricing. Rather than purchasing expensive software like MSSQL themselves, customers can lease this software from Hivelocity for a fraction of the cost. Hivelocity also offers and has extensive expertise with several Windows based control panels like Plesk, HostingController and Hsphere.

In addition to its three Windows hosting awards over the last year, Hivelocity was also named Web Host Magazine’s Editor’s Choice for Best Dedicated Host. Since its inception in 2001, Hivelocity has earned a reputation for being one of the best values in the dedicated hosting sector. With Core2Duo dedicated servers starting at $75 and Quad-Core Xeon dedicated servers starting at $165 they seem to have some of the most competitive pricing around. Considering Hivelocity uses SuperMicro hardware and boasts a 99.98% uptime track record over the last 3 years (stats by Webhostingstuff) while maintaining this great pricing point, these awards seem to be very well deserved.

Hivelocity also garnered placement on Inc. Magazine’s annual list of fastest growing companies in America. With a three year growth rate of nearly 200% Hivelocity came in at #1834, which ranks as the 6th fastest growing IT Company in Florida.

Since 2001, Hivelocity has offered 99.9 percent network uptime, specializing in dedicated web hosting and co-location, providing services to thousands of customers from all over the world.
