Miva Merchant changes pricing structure

2009-06-11T19:51:00.000-07:00

Miva Merchant has instituted a new pricing structure for all MivaMerchant accounts (http://www.mivamerchant.com/Letter.pdf). Instead of a one-time licensing fee, all hosting providers must now pay a monthly "Service" fee for each and every license our hosted sites use. In return, Miva will continue to supply updates and patches, implement PCI and PA-DSS security standards, and will continue to develop their technology and e-commerce applications. We at Hostiam Communications Network http://hostiam.com have long been the most cost effective of the major MivaMerchant hosting providers. We strive to provide the best support and hosting possible for the most economical price. We have previously streamlined operations and passed the savings on to our community. Unfortunately, this means we cannot fully absorb Miva’s price increase. We are reluctantly raising some of our prices to cover this service fee. We have restructured other packages to provide the best features at the best possible price. The new package lineup is fully described on ourweb site. Please note that no Merchant package will be less than $25.00 per month and then, only for customers that already had that price. If you use Miva Merchant, your first bill after May 1, 2009, will reflect the Miva increase. If you are billed monthly, your first bill in June will contain the increase. If you are billed quarterly, your first bill for the next quarter will; and if you are billed annually, your next bill after July 1 will contain the increase. We value your business and hope to keep it. We will always strive to provide quality hosting at the best price possible. If you have anyquestions, please feel free to contact us.

Most businesses nowadays are offering their customers a referral bonus for new customers. At Hostiam Communications Network, we have taken this a step farther. You do not have to be a customer to collect affiliate bonuses. You simply sign up, get one of our affiliate banners or create your own, and start receiving money for every referral that becomes a customer.

You get 5% commission on every new customer that you refer. You even get paid a commission on the new customers that they refer. We pay a 5% commission to you for each new customer five levels deep.

We are really happy to welcome you to our site and blog!

We have been hosting web sites for 10 years now and have learned a lot of things not to do along the way. A few years back we were hacked and did not have adequate backups and lost the majority of our clients and now we are happy to say that we have daily backups and also allow the client to do their own backups from within their personal control panel.

We have found what we believe to be the best suite of services along with very competitive pricing. Our affliate program is the first of it's kind and can be quite lucrative.

Check back often, as we will be implementing several unique services that are sure to create excitement.
