Verio Inc., a US-based subsidiary of NTT Communications Group and a leading provider of hosting and Internet services for small to midsized companies and partners, today announced it has been ranked among the industry's leading Web hosting and service providers by a number of industry sources including VARBusiness, HostIndex and HostReview.

The VARBusiness Partner Programs Guide provides detailed information on the industry's partner programs to assist solution providers and help them better sell and support their products. Providers included in the listing are evaluated on their commitment to and innovation in the channel. The viaVerio® Partner Program, which provides resellers serving the small and midsized business market with high-value dedicated, shared and virtualized hosting solutions, was included in this year's directory. viaVerio resellers benefit from volume discounts and private label opportunities, as well as technical, sales and marketing support.

In addition to being recognized for its commitment to the reseller channel, Verio also received several distinctions from HostReview, an industry site that reviews and ranks hosting providers in five different categories, based on uptime, technical support, user reviews and several other categories. For the month of March, Verio was ranked as both a 'Best Hosting Company' for its outstanding overall performance, and 'Best Managed Hosting Service' for leading procurement, provisioning and installation practices, and for its monitoring and management capabilities.

Also recognizing Verio as a leading hosting provider, HostIndex consistently includes Verio in its listing of top 15 providers.
