Web Hosting News – OVERLAND PARK, KS. - In an effort to provide a high-value business solution, Aplus.net is introducing a new web design product to accompany its shared hosting services. This product allows innovative business owners to reach the masses through the Internet via a personalized and professional website.

Reducing costs and application integration are currently the top priorities for small-to-medium-size business owners online, according to Emergent Research. However, only 41 percent of small-business owners operated an online storefront in Sept. 2008, according to a study by Warrilow & Co., which means a majority are unable to reach the 1.6 billion Internet users. The Internet provides many benefits for SMBs that include global market penetration, brand enhancement, 24/7/365 support and availability and simplified data collection, just to name a few.

Web Design from Aplus.net allows SMBs to take advantage of these many opportunities. In addition, SMBs own their designed website—unlike many other website design houses— and may select from 4,000 design templates for full personalization. SMBs will reduce costs by retaining ownership of their website and can seamlessly launch and manage the site through one of Aplus.net’s shared hosting plans. Each design package includes 5 web pages, a free website consultation and a 12-day delivery guarantee so the website can launch on-time. Packages start at $50/month for 12 months or $500/year for HTML-based websites, while new Flash-based websites start at $80/month for 12 months or $850/year.

“Ecommerce is booming and businesses are finding the Internet is a large source of revenue that is much easier to manage than a brick-n-mortar store,” said Sharon Bruley, Aplus.net Web Design Manager. “By offering web design with no strings attached, business owners have complete control over what direction they take their website and their business.”

In addition to standard design packages, Aplus.net offers a variety of service upgrades such as eCommerce, SEO services, maintenance plans and more providing customers with additional revenue generating tools.

About Aplus.net
One of the industry’s longest-running Web hosting and Internet services providers, Aplus.net specializes in helping small businesses build an online customer base with a comprehensive range of services that includes web design, shared hosting, online marketing, eCommerce, domain name registration, and more.
