📅 - Web hosting provider GlobalWebBrands (globalwebbrands.com) announced on Monday it has expanded its services, while keeping pricing the same. Users will now receive two hosted domains instead of one, 4G of traffic instead of 1G, 400MB of storage space instead of 100MB, three MySQL databases instead of one, and 10MB of MySQL storage instead of 1MB.
"We want to make sure our clients are receiving the best value in the Web site hosting industry," says GlobalWebBrands president Daniel J. Briere. "By adding higher quantities at the same price point for our upgrade services, we?re able to accomplish this goal."
GlobalWebBrands also announced it has narrowed its focus to provide solely Web hosting services, after having moved into several other related services over the summer. In August, the company added four additional hosting plans to its portfolio, but after lackluster response, it scaled back its offerings to two core plans.
The hosting provider has stopped offering Web site templates and hosting packages incorporating site design and search engine optimization. It continues to offer Web hosting, Web design and search engine optimization as separate services.
