Orlando, FL - August 29, 2001-Orlando-based FutureQuest, Inc. (
FutureQuest.net) was recently named the top Web Host Provider offering Linux/Unix-based services by Web Host Magazine & Buyer's Guide. FutureQuest scored a strong 95 out of a possible 100 points, using the magazine's unbiased rating scale. The rating may be seen in its entirety at
http://www.webhostmagazine.com/wh/UN/ec_full.asp?ID=136"Frankly, I can't think of any group that deserves it more - not by a long shot." said Ted Loh, founder of
TygreSystems.com. "I've got a major upgrade about to happen - and there isn't a chance that I would trust it to anyone but FutureQuest."
"Web Host Magazine & Buyer's Guide separates itself from other Host industry ratings because it is our sole objective to present fair and objective reviews based on a set of real criteria we call the Host Factor Rating (
http://www.webhostmagazine.com/ec/ec_criteria.asp), and real hands-on experience by an independent review panel of experienced Web Developers," said David Aaron, Review Editor at
WebHostMagazine.com. "It just isn't that easy to receive a rating this high unless you're good enough to earn it and deserve it. Compared to their peers, FutureQuest is really that good."
"I could never express in words the pride that the entire FutureQuest team feels when recognition is given by places such as the Buyer's Guide. We work hard to EARN the respect of site owners. Paying for it just wouldn't feel the same," said Debbie Gillespie, CEO of FutureQuest, Inc. "I never want to give up that feeling and will continue to structure this company in such a way that I won't have too!"
The ratings are weighted so that 35% of the score is based on the effectiveness of a host's Customer Service-which is where FutureQuest has prided itself since its founding in 1998.
"In this age of non-existent service, I just wanted to pass along to all of you [at FutureQuest], a compliment for the service I have received. Anytime I have had a problem, or request, FutureQuest has been very quick to respond, and that is worth its weight in gold," said Daniel O'Brien founder of
DanielOBrien.net. "Every company should realize that right now, in the year 2001, people are crying out for service. Anyone who provides it will truly be successful. Thanks!"
The magazine lauded FutureQuest for its wonderful support, host of features, uptime charts for every FutureQuest server, and a guaranteed uptime of at least 99.5%. "In this sense, FutureQuest's prices are not just low, but are a bargain," said the independent reviewers for Web Host Magazine & Buyer's Guide.
FutureQuest President and CTO Andrew Gillespie designed the network and servers that earned such praise. "I take my time when building each server and pay close attention to the little details that set the FutureQuest Servers above the standard. If it's not right I'll do it over and I'll keep doing it over until it is," said Andrew Gillespie, CTO of FutureQuest, Inc. "It's the little details that make a big difference in the overall scheme of things."
The unbiased review of FutureQuest, Inc. by The Web Host Magazine & Buyer's Guide is certainly something special as it reiterates the need for hosts everywhere to improve their standards in service while also sending a message to other web host review boards to reconsider the need to rate hosts by the size of their pocket books rather than by the services they offer. The Web Host Magazine & Buyer's Guide as well as FutureQuest, Inc. has earned the respect of many, by building on a foundation of honesty that is so often forgotten in today's industry. Hats off to them both!
