			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Even before LeBron James announced his plans to join the Miami Heat,  ESPN&#8217;s servers couldn&#8217;t withstand the volume of traffic from feverish  NBA fans looking for news about where James, Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh,  and other all-star free agents would land for the 2010-2011 season.</p>
<p>ESPN&#8217;s  server crashed for nearly 45 minutes in early July in the face of  massive amounts of traffic. The crash happened right after news broke  that Rudy Gay had re-signed with the Memphis Grizzlies. Could ESPN&#8217;s  site crash again as fans rush to the sports news site to learn more  about the All-Star Trio of King James, Wade and Bosh in the months  ahead?</p>
<p>&#8220;ESPN saw traffic surge to the point of crashing the site  &#8212; and that can happen to anyone,&#8221; said Octavio Diaz, Operations Manager  at ServerPronto, a discount dedicated server company headquartered in  Ft. Lauderdale. &#8220;But you don&#8217;t have to suffer ESPN&#8217;s fate. You can get <a href="http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=111etd1id/**http%3A//www.serverpronto.com/">affordable  backup servers</a> in place that offer you the bandwidth you need  during special promotions your company is running.&#8221;</p>
<p>ServerPronto,  the world&#8217;s most <a href="http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=111etd1id/**http%3A//www.serverpronto.com/">reliable  dedicated server</a>, has redundancies in place that help customers  avoid server outages, including fault tolerant network devices that link  data centers to upstream providers and multiple Tier 1 backbones  connected via dynamic routing protocols.</p>
<p>ServerPronto also offers  multiple uninterruptable power sources to feed all network attached  equipment, along with high efficiency diesel generators to backup  commercial power sources. All these features, along with 24&#215;7 monitoring  for network performance and availability, allow ServerPronto to offer a  <a href="http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=111etd1id/**http%3A//www.serverpronto.com/">100  percent server uptime guarantee</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;You don&#8217;t have to be ESPN  during NBA free agent negotiations to see your traffic spike &#8212; and you  don&#8217;t have to be a major television network to have backups systems in  place that accommodate those traffic spikes,&#8221; Diaz said. &#8220;Our dedicated  servers are not only reliable &#8212; they are affordable. You can use our  servers as a backup without breaking your IT budget.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>About  ServerPronto<br />
</em>ServerPronto is part of the &#8216;Pronto family&#8217; of companies with  MailPronto, ColoPronto and CloudPronto which have been leading a  low-cost revolution in the hosting industry since 2003. Following in  those footsteps, ServerPronto is breaking the price barrier for  dedicated hosting in secured and reinforced Data Centers with redundant  power, lightning fast fiber connections, and 24X7X365 support from a  staff with more than 10 years experience building and maintaining  servers and computer networks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cloud hosting is more than just a trend. It&#8217;s the wave of the future  &#8212; and it&#8217;s here now. Companies large and small are tapping into the  cost-savings of cloud hosting that lets them pay only for what they use  while also reducing outages.</p>
<p>&#8220;You might think of cloud servers as ultra-flexible dedicated servers,&#8221;  said Octavio Diaz, Operations Manager at CloudPronto, a leading cloud  hosting company headquartered in Ft. Lauderdale. &#8220;A cloud server is  totally customizable and gives you access to run anything you want on a  fault tolerant program, from web site hosting to file storage and  beyond.&#8221;</p>
<p><!--FIRST IMAGE PLACEHOLDER --><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">Cloud servers</a> are scalable on-demand. Businesses can  launch one server or multiple servers in minutes and ramp up or ramp  down according to the demand. Businesses may start out with a 256 MB  plan, but within minutes can access 15.5 GB of physical memory. When the  demand subsides, the business can return to the 256 MB plan. The end  result: cost savings. The business pays for the temporary spike in usage  rather than paying for the extra memory for an entire contract period  &#8212; or even an entire billing cycle.</p>
<p>&#8220;Cloud servers not only offer scalability and cost savings, they also  let businesses access systems anywhere from any device with a web  browser. And because the cloud allows resource sharing across a large  pool of users, cloud hosting is more reliable than traditional web  hosting,&#8221; Diaz explained. &#8220;Cloud servers are also easier to maintain and  support, and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">cloud hosting</a> has green benefits. By using only the  resources needed, businesses are reducing their carbon footprint.&#8221;</p>
<p>CloudPronto&#8217;s cloud servers rely on VMware Fault Tolerance and VMware HA  to deliver the availability needed by <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">applications  in the cloud</a>. VMware HA provides uniform, cost-effective failover  protection against hardware and operating system failures within a  virtualized IT environment. With VMware software, CloudPronto decreases  downtime and improves reliability with business continuity.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Facebook updated its privacy settings, but some privacy advocates  still aren&#8217;t convinced that personal information is safe and sound on  the leading social networking platform. In fact, the whirlwind of  privacy and security controversy around Facebook also has some  questioning the wisdom of shared servers.</p>
<p>&#8220;Shared servers are kind of like having complete strangers for  roommates. Yes, they&#8217;re probably trustworthy, but would you leave your  wallet on the kitchen table? How about your customers&#8217; credit card  numbers?&#8221; said Octavio Diaz, Operations Manager at ServerPronto. &#8220;With so much  focus on privacy and security, it may be time to migrate from a shared  server to a more secure dedicated server.&#8221;</p>
<p>Security issues should be top of mind for any Web site owner.  Consider this equation: limited access equals greater security. In fact,  the most secure dedicated server providers don&#8217;t maintain access  themselves, ensuring that only the customer has root privileges. On a  dedicated server, customers can use the firewall that best meets their  needs and configure access policies that are right for them instead of  allowing a shared host to make this critical security decision.</p>
<p>With a dedicated server, companies don&#8217;t have to worry that another  site will slow down or crash their server. Neither do companies have to  be concerned about exceeding shared bandwidth allotments and getting  slews of bouncebacks on their latest e-mail campaign. In other words,  dedicated servers offer greater reliability than their shared server  counterparts.</p>
<p>&#8220;Your slice of a shared server&#8217;s hard disk may be safe &#8212; you chose a  strong password and disable the applications that might allow a  security breach. But did everyone else do the same?&#8221; Diaz asks. &#8220;A  dedicated server can lower your privacy and security risks.&#8221;</p>
<p>About ServerPronto</p>
<p>ServerPronto is part of the &#8216;Pronto family&#8217; of companies with  MailPronto, ColoPronto and CloudPronto which have been leading a  low-cost revolution in the hosting industry since 2003. Following in  those footsteps, ServerPronto is breaking the price barrier for  dedicated hosting in secured and reinforced Data Centers with redundant  power, lightning fast fiber connections, and 24X7X365 support from a  staff with more than 10 years experience building and maintaining  servers and computer networks.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Server reliability has been in the media spotlight recently with  outages of blockbuster social media sites like Facebook, Twitter,  YouTube and LinkedIn. As membership on these sites grow, sometimes usage  outstrips bandwidth, posing an inconvenience to users.</p>
<p>That inconvenience becomes a full-blown business interruption when your  web site is hosted at a company prone to server outages. In May, server  management clients at ThePlanet, a dedicated hosting company that runs  more than 40,000 servers, saw outages that prevented visitors from  accessing their sites.</p>
<p><!--FIRST IMAGE PLACEHOLDER -->&#8220;Emotions can run high when your e-mail suddenly stops working, your  site is offline and you rely on the Internet to generate leads and  revenue,&#8221; said Octavio Diaz, Operations Manager at ServerPronto, a  leading dedicated server provider in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. &#8220;ServerPronto  has built in redundancies that allow us to offer customers a 100  percent uptime guarantee.&#8221;</p>
<p>ServerPronto, the world&#8217;s most <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.serverpronto.com/">reliable dedicated server</a> provider,  has taken measured steps to avoid outages that cost its customers time  and money. ServerPronto offers fault tolerant network devices that link  data centers to upstream providers and multiple Tier 1 backbones  connected via dynamic routing protocols.</p>
<p>On the power redundancy front, ServerPronto also offers multiple  uninterruptable power sources to feed all network attached equipment,  along with highly efficient diesel generators to backup commercial power  sources. The world&#8217;s most reliable <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.serverpronto.com/">dedicated  server</a> provider also employs 24&#215;7 monitoring for network  performance and availability.</p>
<p>&#8220;Even if you are already using a competing dedicated server host you are  happy with, it&#8217;s a good idea to partner with ServerPronto so you have  redundancy,&#8221; Diaz said. &#8220;Our <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.serverpronto.com/">dedicated server</a> prices are so  affordable &#8212; and our hosting service is so reliable &#8212; that most  businesses can afford to use our servers as backup without blowing their  IT budget. One major outage could make you wish you had.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With spring less than a week away, it&#8217;s time to do some  spring-cleaning on the technology front &#8212; and that could mean migrating  to a more affordable, more reliable dedicated server provider.</p>
<p>Migrating a dedicated server, hosting service or virtual private  server from one provider to another isn&#8217;t rocket science &#8212; but it does  take time. We are now giving new customers time to migrate &#8212; at  their own pace &#8212; with this Spring Migration Promotion. <strong>Customers  migrating from a competing provider receive two months of free service  with a six-month commitment when they choose quarterly billing with the  promo code SPDB100303.</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Some of the biggest reasons people don&#8217;t migrate a dedicated server  is because they dread the pressure of configuring a new server,  switching DNS records, and moving all the data quickly,&#8221; said Octavio  Diaz, Operations Manager for ServerPronto, a leading dedicated server  provider in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. &#8220;ServerPronto&#8217;s Spring Migration  Promotion lets you take your time.&#8221;</p>
<p>There are many reasons to migrate. Dedicated server providers may  pull critical features or discontinue the support of operating systems  companies rely on. It could be that downtime becomes an issue, customer  support is poor, or hardware fails too often. Or perhaps the dedicated  server provider doesn&#8217;t offer enough flexibility or scalability for  growing companies.</p>
<p>We continue to optimize our  products and services, and  offers safeguards such as a 60-minute hardware replacement policy, a 100  percent uptime guarantee, and best of breed, performance-oriented  dedicated server hardware mounted in a world-class,  temperature-controlled data center.</p>
<p>&#8220;Migrating a dedicated server doesn&#8217;t have to be a stressful  experience,&#8221; Diaz said. &#8220;ServerPronto makes it easy to migrate with free  set-up and two-hour activation on customized dedicated server packages  &#8212; and our Spring Migration Promotion gives you two months of free  service so you can migrate at a speed that&#8217;s comfortable for your  schedule.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;"> In a move to help environmentally-conscious companies make a positive  impact on Earth Day and beyond, CloudPronto is rolling out &#8220;green&#8221;  alternatives to traditional servers and web hosting.As part of the Earth Day celebration, CloudPronto is making available  its latest <a href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">Cloud Servers</a> and  Dedicated Cloud products that offer customers practical ways to &#8220;go  green&#8221; without sacrificing the reliability and affordability they have   come to expect from the Pronto Group family of companies.</p>
<p>&#8220;Forty years ago, when Earth Day was first instituted, technologies like  the Internet, cloud computing and <a href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">virtualized  servers</a> were not yet on the radar screen of most companies,&#8221; said  Octavio Diaz, Operations Manager for CloudPronto. &#8220;Plenty has changed in  the last four decades. Today, we can proudly offer virtualized servers  and hosting options that are truly green.&#8221;</p>
<p>By truly green, Diaz means that CloudPronto&#8217;s virtualized servers and  hosting options have energy efficiency in mind. Companies can leverage  Cloud Servers and Dedicated Cloud products that are based on VMware&#8217;s  virtualization technology and use only a fraction of the power  consumption of traditional server products. Because CloudPronto&#8217;s cloud  servers are based on VMware technology, the company can guarantee high  availability on a fault tolerant platform.</p>
<p>The cloud model not only lets companies go green, it also helps  companies save green. In other words, companies can save money with the  cloud model because they only pay for the bandwidth they use. Companies  can scale up or down based on demand, and CloudPronto&#8217;s cloud hardware  infrastructure spans data centers around the world, providing network  access and speed where it&#8217;s needed.</p>
<p>&#8220;CloudPronto offers customers who need <a href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">dedicated servers</a> and web hosting  the best of both all worlds: affordability, reliability, and the  opportunity to do your part to reduce your carbon footprint,&#8221; Diaz said.  &#8220;As with all Pronto Group products, our Cloud Servers are backed-up by  24&#215;7 Expert Technical Support.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>About CloudPronto Hosting<br />
</em>CloudPronto is part of the &#8216;Pronto family&#8217; of companies with  MailPronto, ColoPronto and ServerPronto, which have been leading a  low-cost revolution in the hosting industry since 2003.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;"> In a move to offer instant scalability, redundancy, power and  performance, We are rolling out a new cloud offering. The  Cloud Servers and Dedicated Cloud seek to enhance your business  opportunities by taking advantage of <a href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">virtual hosting</a> and cloud  computing technologies. Dubbed CloudPronto, the new division offers the  same enhanced reliability and affordability guarantees as ServerPronto  &#8212; in the cloud.Based on VMware&#8217;s virtualization technology, CloudPronto&#8217;s <a href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">cloud servers</a> bring the power and  high availability of the cloud to the dedicated server model. Just like a  dedicated server, cloud servers offer total access to run applications  and host websites on a fault tolerant platform. The difference between  ServerPronto&#8217;s dedicated servers and CloudPronto&#8217;s cloud servers is the  use of virtualization to share hardware with other cloud servers and to  provide platform fault tolerance.</span></p>
<p>&#8220;Imagine being able to move an active server from one host server to  another without ever loosing connection to vital services, and being  able to provision a server or upgrade a server&#8217;s hardware on the fly,&#8221;  said Octavio Diaz, Operations Manager at CloudPronto. &#8220;That&#8217;s the idea  behind our new Cloud Servers.&#8221;</p>
<p>With the cloud model, organizations can witness significant savings  because they only use &#8212; and only pay for &#8212; the bandwidth needed.  CloudPronto&#8217;s Cloud Servers allow organizations to quickly provision,  deploy and take down virtualized server instances as demands on the  server change.</p>
<p>&#8220;CloudPronto&#8217;s new Cloud Server and <a href="http://www.cloudpronto.com/">Dedicated  Cloud</a> offerings provide value-oriented pricing and custom  configuration options,&#8221; Diaz says. &#8220;Each cloud server gives you full  root access to your Linux distribution or administrator access to your  requested Windows version. As with all Pronto Group products, our Cloud  Servers are backed-up by 24&#215;7 Expert Technical Support.&#8221;</p>
<p>Standard Cloud Server package prices start at $14.95 a month, but  CloudPronto is attracting larger enterprises looking for a reliable,  affordable cloud platform with its Dedicated Cloud servers. Dedicated  Cloud servers start at $699.95 a month, complete with VMware High  Availability.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">With spring less than a week away, it&#8217;s time to do some spring-cleaning on the technology front &#8212; and that could mean migrating to a more affordable, more <a href="http://www.serverpronto.com/">reliable dedicated server</a> provider.Migrating a dedicated server, hosting service or virtual private server from one provider to another isn&#8217;t rocket science &#8212; but it does take time. Now we are giving new customers time to migrate &#8212; at their own pace &#8212; with Our Spring Migration Promotion. Customers migrating from a competing provider receive two months of free service with a six-month commitment when they choose quarterly billing with the promo code SPDB100303.</span></p>
<p>Some of the biggest reasons people don&#8217;t <a href="http://www.serverpronto.com/">migrate a dedicated server</a> is because they dread the pressure of configuring a new server, switching DNS records, and moving all the data quickly, but with the offering of the Spring Migration Promotion it allows you to take your time.</p>
<p>There are many reasons to migrate. Dedicated server providers may pull critical features or discontinue the support of operating systems companies rely on. It could be that downtime becomes an issue, customer support is poor, or hardware fails too often. Or perhaps the dedicated server provider doesn&#8217;t offer enough flexibility or scalability for growing companies.</p>
<p>ServerPronto continues to optimize its products and services, and offers safeguards such as a 60-minute hardware replacement policy, a 100 percent uptime guarantee, and best of breed, performance-oriented dedicated server hardware mounted in a world-class, temperature-controlled data center.</p>
<p>Migrating a dedicated server doesn&#8217;t have to be a stressful experience,We at ServerPronto we make it easy to migrate with free set-up and two-hour activation on <a href="http://www.serverpronto.com/">customized dedicated server packages</a> &#8212; and our Spring Migration Promotion gives you two months of free service so you can migrate at a speed that&#8217;s comfortable for your schedule.</p>
