May 10, 2006 : ExpertHost Hosts MegaGlobal Image

📅 May 10, 2006 - Canadian reseller Web hosting provider ExpertHost (experthost.com) announced on Wednesday that it has agreed to provide hosting services to MegaGlobal Image Syndicate to launch a micro-payment, community based stock photography site LuckyOliver (luckyoliver.com).

The site is currently in the process of accepting photo submissions, and will be open for designers to begin purchasing photos next month. Fitting in snugly between stock photography Web sites and online community portals, LuckyOliver is founded on the belief that there's plenty of room for improvement and innovation in the world of selling photos online.

"Many of our clients are visual artists, and rather than just offering them a catalogue of expensive, one-time-use stock images, we've asked them to participate and become members of LuckyOliver," says Dr. Atul Joshi, ExpertHost's director of business development. "Here, they can not only obtain quality, royalty-free images for their web sites, but they could also contribute their images as well. This becomes a great way for them to generate ongoing revenue from their own digital images."

ExpertHost, a division of NJ Tech Solutions, offers its clients a range of Web hosting services including shared, VPS, or dedicated servers.
