HostMySite boosts cloud hosting offering with Windows Azure foundation

Back in May 2009, when HostMySite made its big acquisition of Hosting.com, the move was supposed to build a national footprint and widen the reach the company had in the always growing virtual hosting market.
HostMySite was a consumer portal, and Hosting.com was a staple for businesses to host their sites, applications and data online. Now HostMySite is hoping a partnership with Windows Azure will help make the user experience of navigating its hosting platform even easier for its customers.
HostMySite was founded locally in 1997 by Lou Honick and Neil Heuer before being acquired by investors in June 2008. Just a year later, then led by Denver-based entrepreneurs installed by the new ownership, HostMySite acquired what was then a Louisville, KY-based Hosting.com, said HostMySite.com representative Gaby Wilson. Today, the company’s headquarters were built across a pair of offices in a Newark business park.
