December 11, 2007 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Dedicated server “Deal-a-Day” site ServerADay.com (http://www.serveraday.com) has beaten its sales goals and added datacenter capacity, it was announced today. The site, launched by OLM.net (http://www.olm.net) in October, announced it will increase datacenter capacity by 4,000 servers to meet demand.
Initially, managers of the new venture had hoped to sell 150 servers through the end of 2007, a modest goal to serve as a test of the novel, unproven marketing strategy. But to date, ServerADay.com has closed more than 250 orders, and is on pace to reach 300 servers by the end of the year - double the original goal.
“It has proven to be phenomenally successful, beyond all of our predictions,” said Chris Silkman, OLM.net Business Manager. “The site has been online for just over two months, and we have received an incredibly strong response from developers and small businesses who want to affordably make the transition to a dedicated server.”
The company has begun immediately provisioning capacity for an additional 1,000 servers in its Stratford, Conn. datacenter, to be ready in early January. By Q3 2008, the company hopes to have capacity ready for an additional 3,000 servers. All servers sold on the site still receive OLM.net’s world-class datacenter features, including high quality fiber, redundant infrastructure, and physical and network security.
ServerADay.com, which is modeled after the successful deal-a-day retail sales sites, provides limited-quantity offers on dedicated servers. A new offer is posted nightly at 12:01am, and once an offer expires or sells out, it is no longer available to customers.
Dedicated servers featured on the site are typically excess stock or upgraded servers from OLM.net’s datacenters. Offers on the site do not require customers to commit to long term contracts; all servers are sold on a month-to-month basis. Once a customer signs up at a certain price, the cost will never increase.
