Web Host News – McLean, VA - ServInt, a pioneering provider of managed web hosting for businesses worldwide, today announced it has earned the endorsement of leading sports blogger Brooks Melchior of Sports by Brooks (www.sportsbybrooks.com).

Sports by Brooks, a ServInt customer since 2002, has been online since May 2001.  It has become one of the world’s largest, independently owned general sports blogs and it is regularly cited by major sports networks.

In November 2009, when the news surrounding Tiger Woods’ personal life was broken by Melchior, the resulting global traffic surge threatened to cripple the popular sports site.  Instead, ServInt’s engineering team quickly implemented a custom solution that quadrupled the server resources dedicated to the site.  Consequently, the site not only survived the massive traffic spike, but actually performed better than ever before.
