WebHostingMall.com Request for Web Hosting Quality Articles

October 16, 2007; 02:43 AM
WebHostingMall.com (http://www.webhostingmall.com), a PR6 website and sister site to HostSearch.com, the Internet’s largest source of searchable information related to web hosts and their products and services, is looking for quality articles on web hosting and related topics, it was announced today. The site aims to develop a solid bank of articles that cover a range of topics and provide genuine input rather than just linking opportunities for an author.

“The are numerous articles sites around, but I think as far as web hosting and related topics are concerned, the quality of the articles I have seen has gone down over the last couple of years,” suggested John Hughes, Web Editor of WebHostingMall.com. “Many are nothing more than a reason for a link – nothing more. I saw one site with about 40 articles from the same author with links to his hosting company. The articles were simply meaningless – just gibberish. The author was not interested in conveying any information, nor was it a language issue - he was just interested in the link.”

According to Mr. Hughes, although such an approach to articles may have Search Engine Optimization (SEO) benefits, it totally undermines the reputation of the author and the organization he/she works for. “I think what people miss here is that articles are a genuine marketing opportunity. If you post a horrific article for SEO reasons, you are missing out on a genuine opportunity to impress potential customers with your expertise – to show people you know what you are talking about. What we are trying to establish with WebHostingMall.com is a quality resource, where people would genuinely look for the answers to their questions. We are looking to get articles from web hosting professionals, marketers, SEO people… Professionals who know what they are talking about. Of course, each article will provide full acknowledgement and a link, so if someone is suitably impressed with the article you have written, you can expect a visit!”

Topics areas Mr. Hughes is sourcing articles for include:

- Choosing a Web Host

- General Web Hosting Topics

- How to Buy Web Hosting!

- Web Hosting for Beginners

- Running a Website

- Ecommerce Issues
- Domain Name Issues

- Website Development
- Website Promotion and SEO
- The Web Hosting Business

- Reseller Hosting

- UNIX/Linux Hosting

- PHP Hosting
- Colocation Hosting

- Dedicated Server Hosting

- Managed Hosting

- Low Cost Hosting
- E-commerce Hosting 

“We can be very flexible and create new categories in order to receive quality items,” added Mr. Hughes. “But please, do not send me articles about your services or your products, that’s not what we are looking for. We are looking for articles of substance.”
