Dotster Inc., a leading provider of Internet business services, is helping business owners improve efficiency and communication with its new Open-Xchange Webmail, Business Email, and Personal Mobility solutions.
Open-Xchange provides small business owners a low-cost, open-source alternative to Microsoft's Exchange, with an average savings of 78 percent for up to 10 users.
In its continuing effort to offer the online solutions customers need, domain registrar and business hosting services provider Dotster (www.dotster.com) is offering with new unlimited bandwidth and disk space hosting plans, as well as new 24/7 phone customer support.
One of several hosting providers that suffered significant outages following a fire at Seattle’s Fisher Plaza facility in early July, Dotster is following the outage by solidifying the lines of communication with customers through an increased social media effort, according to an interview with local newspaper the Columbian.
Recognizing that social networks vary in size, online and hosting services provider Dotster has expanded its user-community platform, giving companies of any size the ability to reap the benefits of online communities and next-generation social networking at four new price points.
'Happy Hour’ promotion from Dotster, another easy way to get online.

Domain registrar and Web hosting provider Dotster (dotster.com) announced on Wednesday that it is offering private domain registration for $4.99 per year for a limited time.
While it's not totally clear from the announcement whether the price is the news or the service is just being launched, it stands to reason that Dotster, a relatively well-known player in the hosting and domain business, would have introduced a private registration feature years ago. The price tag
The private registration service is a fairly common offering among domain registrars, but Dotster said it is driven in particular to offer the service by the growing use of the WHOIS database by spammers to locate new targets for their email.
The press release cites recent statistics showing email spam having grown to about 90 billion messages a day and spammers continuously mine the public WHOIS database to obtain domain owners' personal contact information.
At its current pricing, Dotster's new addition appears to come at a lower cost than both the pricey and the affordable services from competing registrars. Network Solutions offers a private domain registration for $9 per year with email filtering and customer control over the domain registration and GoDaddy offers one for $6.99 per year with similar services.
Like other private registration services, Dotster's WHOIS privacy service places Dotster's contact information in the WHOIS database rather than the information of the domain owner. The company's website specifies that the customer retains the ownership of the domain. Dotster provides a filtered email address in connection with the private registration.
"In today's high-tech world where personal information is available at the click of the mouse, Internet privacy rarely exists, and this can lead to identity theft and additional major problems for domain owners," says Clint Page, CEO of Dotster, in the press release. "Dotster is working to combat that and return power to domain owners by keeping their private contact information the way it was designed to be - private."
