November 23, 2005 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Jeeran (http://www.jeeran.com), the first web hosting community geared towards Arabs, has launched a free ‘Blog Service’. The service allows users to easily set up websites which act as online journals and allow comments and contributions to be posted by visitors. ‘Jeeran Blogs’ can incorporate images, videos and a variety of other media alongside normal text.
Jeeran’s Blog Service provides an ‘Arabized’ solution for blog creation and stems from an ongoing commitment to provide Internet technologies to the Arab online community. "We have always been a user-driven company. Blogging, the epitome of user interaction today, is the natural and logical extension to our current line of products and services," said Omar Koudsi, Co-founder & President of Jeeran. "We have added Blogs, as another useful tool, to empower our users and allow them to fully utilize the latest technologies and trends in the Internet world. A clear manifestation of how blogs fit in our line of services is that since our blogs soft launch earlier this month, two thousand bloggers have joined the Jeeran blogsphere," he added.
Jeeran was launched in 2000 as the first Arab Web Hosting Community on the Internet and is recognized as the market leader in its domain. Its blogs are provided free of charge alongside a range of products and services designed to specifically cater to the requirements of Arab users. "We have made it our strategy to analyze and predict the needs of the Arab online community and present them with solutions which address those needs in an easy to use format," said Laith Zraikat, VP of Jeeran.
"People come to Jeeran to use our web-based tools and create an online presence for them selves. We have seen tremendous success for our hosting and web building tools, which grew our community of webmasters to more than 500,000 registered members. Now with Jeeran Blogs, our members have another easy-to-use tool by which to enhance and strengthen their online presence. It will also add a whole new audience of bloggers to Jeeran," Mr. Zraikat added.
