LunarNews – January 2008
Author: Tiara Rea
Well, it’s been a really busy year for Lunarpages Web Hosting. We’ve done just about everything imaginable to keep our services top-notch and our customers happy. We’ve increased storage and bandwidth space, added extra domain hosting features, created an amazing template web design system, started a contest worth $1,000 and 5 Years Hosting, and even thrown a couple parties. 
2007 was a great year, but it’s time to welcome in 2008! Here’s a recap of our biggest events of 2007 and our BIG NEWS so far in 2008!
Biggest Events of 2007
The first thing we did to really roll in the new year was a complete site redesign. If you remember the old look, it was actually pretty cool – we were going for a Star Trek theme with flashing lights and a dark blue design. The new, cleaner look was revealed January 2007.
Also in January, we rolled out upgrades to our Basic and Business Web Hosting high enough to blow the competition out of the water. Our Basic Hosting went from 35GB of storage to 350 and from 800GB bandwidth to 3500!! Our Business Hosting went from 50GB storage to Unlimited and from 1000GB bandwidth to 3500! We also added the ability to host 11 websites on 1 plan for either the Basic or the Business, giving you the chance to setup multiple sites all under the same web hosting roof – and all for free.
A bit later in 2007, we introduced PageMason, a Lunarpages-created web design and template system. Though still in Beta testing, PageMason offers our customers the chance to use preexisting templates and build a webpage with ease.
In late October, we introduced the Windows VPS Hosting Plan to our solutions and finally, in November, we launched the WordPress Theme Design Competition, where we’re giving away $1,000 and 5 Years Free Hosting to the winning theme designer. The contest is already in full swing, and the winner will be featured in the February 2008 edition of the LP Newsletter.
One of the best events of the year for me was finally launching the Lunarpages Web Hosting Newsletter. We had been planning it and trying to figure out the best time to promote it…and then it all just fell into place and everyone has been so responsive. Thanks everyone, for a great 07!
Lunarpages in 2008
In true Lunarpages fashion, what’s the first thing we did? Upgrade our plans! Our Basic Hosting Plan now comes with a phenomenal 1,500GB of storage space and 15,000GB bandwidth!!
Our Business Hosting was upgraded to include 15,000GB bandwidth as well!! It still comes with Unlimited storage.
We also announced our Lunarpages Quicksite Plan, which is designed to help you get your website up in 2 hours and with help from Lunarpages staff. For more information on this amazing new plan, see our Featured Article: Quick and Easy Hosting with LPQuicksite.
And finally (how much more can there be??), we added a new commission structure for our Dedicated Affiliate Sales! Now you can earn $180 per referral of any Dedicated Server to Lunarpages. Email affiliate@lunarpages.com for more information or see our Feature Article: Want to Earn $180 the Easy Way??.
The End of our CoffeeCup Promotion
As January of 2008 comes to a close so will our CoffeeCup promotion of $700 free software with any 12 or 24 month hosting plan purchase. The promotion will come to a close on January 15, 2008, but rest assured we have some other amazing offers in the works. Plus, you can now use our Quicksite Plan, which as mentioned earlier can get your website online in 2 hours!! With nothing to download and design assistance direct from Lunarpages, you’re set. Plus, PageMason is available for any 12 or 24 month hosting plan purchase, and that can also help you get your website online with the use of premade Lunarpages templates, designs, and layouts.

It’s nice to see a walkthrough of Lunarpages in 2007. I’m really glad I switch to you guys and love the service you provide, especially as you’re always quick to upgrade me with all the new customers too!
Thx again for the awesome service.

I was so glad I found your hosting back in August. I had tried to use the “Q&A” sections of other hosting sites, but they either never answered or were very slow at answering and no one actually answered the questions I had. It was like they were all beating around the bush. Lunarpages not only answered EVERY question I had, they did it quickly and if they did not know right then, I had a response they were inquiring about it and would get to me as soon as they had an answer. WELL…. YOU ROCK!!! When I had mega questions BEFORE I signed up, you never put me off or tried to badger me. I have had great success using the coffee cup program and LOVE this hosting. As long as I am continued with this same service from you, you will forever be my hosting site.

I began my webhosting “life” quite a few years ago through that “one company” with the Yodeler. (Yeehaaaaaawwww..or something)
They were expensive, restrictive, and flat out terrible. Which is what got me searching for other hosting means. I’ve tried other hosts, and was frankly quite happy with my last host. Until I found LunarPages. The storage, the bandwidth, heck even the SPEED of my site is incredible. And all for $1 less than my last host, with literally 100X more storage and Bandwidth.
My hats off to you ladies and Gents.
