LOGAN, Utah, March 8 -- The UK2 Group, http://www.uk2group.com, a global leader of web hosting solutions today announced that after one year of offering a next generation model of VPS cloud hosting, it has garnered thousands of new deployments and clients and added new technological improvements unique to VPS.NET, http://www.vps.net.

In celebration of its first anniversary, VPS.NET is offering a free upgrade from 256MB to 375MB of RAM and 400 MHz to 600 MHz per node on all new deployments.  This free upgrade is also extended as the new standard for existing customers and will provide greater speed and power to customers at an exceptional price.

VPS.NET has a unique niche in the web hosting market by offering a cloud hosting model that enables customers to quickly build, test and deploy websites in the cloud within minutes.  Unlike dedicated servers, VPS.NET's solution offers limitless resources and instant scalability.  The VPS.NET Custom Built solution includes technologies found on Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), Firewalls, Network Behavior Analysis, Network Perimeter Security, DDoS protection and traffic monitoring software.  Through a cloud hosting model, VPS.NET has been able to leverage more resources out of the cloud thereby providing greater resources, cost effectively, to customers.  This model ensures continuous and uninterrupted uptime even during heavy load spikes as well as self-healing, automatic failover and redundant gigabit network connectivity.

Customers can deploy a cloud server in less than a minute and are able to cost effectively add or remove nodes on a daily basis as needed for as little as $1.00 per day.  This allows customers to pay only for what they need and to avoid costly long-term contracts.  VPS.NET's flexible model allows for upgrading and downgrading or complete cancellation at any time.  VPS.NET also offers monthly discounting for as low as $13.00 per month, per node.

"VPS.NET is deploying thousands of new virtual machines each month which is an amazing achievement in our first year and demonstrates the demand and power of a cloud hosting model for our customers," said Ditlev Bredahl, chief executive officer, UK2 Group, the parent company of VPS.NET.  "Our customers value the ability of our solution to grow with their needs without locking into a specific platform, unlike some of our competitors," said Bredahl.

"I'm now moving 2-3 of the remaining sites a week off my shared plan and onto my spiffy new cloud [VPS.NET]," said Greg Rickaby, senior web developer and owner of GRd Design.  "Every time I move one, I can't help but grin because I know my clients will notice the difference in speed too," said Rickaby.
