Apollo Hosting Partners With Tucows for Domain
Services
Austin, TX, July 27, 2005
Apollo Hosting is pleased to announce its domain registrations
are now powered by Tucows, the world's largest provider of wholesale
domain names. Tucows is accredited by the Internet Corporation
for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) as a certified domain
name Registrar.
"We are very excited about the new partnership. Apollo
has worked with Tucows for over 2 years now, and this partnership
is the logical progression of our relationship. We can provide
domains at a more affordable price to our customers and provide
a robust management system for those domains," says Scott
Lee, Apollo Hosting's Director of Operations.
To celebrate this new partnership, Apollo Hosting is offering
current customers using our previous registrar partners the
opportunity to transfer their domain name registrations for
only $9.95. This price includes another full year of registration.
Customers who have recently renewed with their current registrar
may still take advantage of this offer and add another year
to their current registration period. Thereafter, domains will
renew at our new, lower annual rate of $12.95 per year.

The Ecommerce
Business Plan
Copyright 2005© by Ray Yee
Simply
put, business plans can make or break your business. Starting
a Drop Ship business online is no different from starting a
traditional non-online business. With the strong emphasis individuals
place on writing business plans for starting up non-internet-based
companies, it is equally crucial to prepare a business plan
for your online business.
A business
plan serves many important purposes for the online business.
First, because the business plan has a detailed list of the
tasks to undertake, it is a call to action for you to promote
your business actively and not procrastinate on your marketing
efforts. Second, it provides a blueprint that describes your
company effectively: the market, the products and the steps
you need for effective marketing. This serves to guide your
business through the months ahead.
