Affinity Internet (www.affinity.com), a web hosting provider, announced on August 18, 2004 that it has introduced ReadyWeb, a pay-as-you-go web design and hosting service. The new service includes the most popular web hosting plan of Affinity, a homepage, a contact page and the option to pick three additional pages from an existing list, for $49.95 a month. In addition, the service features upgrades from a professional web designer. ReadyWeb is a part of the recently introduced “CreateIt!” services suite and gives small and medium-sized businesses the opportunity to concentrate on their core business, while professionals at Affinity take care for website design, updating and management at affordable prices. Support for ReadyWeb is provided by Affinity’s customer service “guides” on a 24-hour basis, year round.
Peter Chambers, CEO of Affinity Internet, said that ReadyWeb was another piece of the company’s strategy to bring valuable and affordable bundles of products and services to its customers that they could use to become successful on the web. He added that Affinity Internet also recognized that SMBs did not want one-size-fits-all solutions, so while the company bundled its products and services, it still gave its customers the freedom to mix-and-match what they needed to meet their unique requirements.
