January 6, 2006 – (HOSTSEARCH) – Recognizing the growing number of organizations that utilize the technology (roughly 130 million listeners each month) Canadian web hosting and ecommerce solutions provider MonsterHosting.ca (http://www.monsterhosting.ca) has announced the introduction of SHOUTcast web hosting to its suite of services.
“Businesses are looking for new tools they can use to communicate with their customers. In 2005 we saw an explosion of blogs, and in 2006, we’re looking forward to rapid growth of new media, namely audio and video streaming technologies, such as SHOUTCast,” said Lisa Jones, MonsterHosting’s President.
MonsterHosting,ca will offer SHOUTCast accounts through a fully-manageable control panel. “In classic MonsterHosting style, we decided that the best way to provide SHOUTCast was to give our customers the option to buy exactly what they need, and nothing more,” said Ms Jones. “We were also able to add in the functionality for users to purchase personal web space on a separate server. Users can also add station liners, which are short clips used to brand radio stations,” added Ms Jones.
