Web Host CintrixHost Now Offers PCI Compliant Business Hosting Solutions
Web host CintrixHost is now offering PCI compliant business hosting solutions at no additional cost to small business customers. The move is intended to enhance the company's ability to offer solutions to small businesses and was based on small business owners' comments regarding issues they had with web hosting services.

According to its website, the PCI Security Standards Council is "an open global forum, launched in 2006, that is responsible for the development, management, education, and awareness of the PCI Security Standards, including the Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS), and PIN Transaction Security (PTS) requirements". Founded by corporations like American Express, JCB International, MasterCard Worldwide, and Visa Inc., the standards are intended to protect credit card holders and particularly apply to companies that do business via websites and need to store credit card data securely.

US-based web host CintrixHost offers a range of hosting solutions that allow its customers to avoid focusing on hosting concerns and focus on their core competencies. The company's new PCI Compliant Business Hosting options are offered without long-term contracts and start at only $9.99 per month. The accounts offer a free 256-bit SSL certificate, valued at $49.95, and free domain name registration or transfer valued, at $11.99. Accounts also come with a website builder that is easy to use and does not require coding experience.

"We spoke with business owners extensively in making this decision. Time and time again business owners stated that the cost of PCI compliance was a huge concern to them," explained CintrixHost's CEO, Justin Eggar. "I can understand their concern - the costs involved with getting a website online and PCI Compliant can certainly be substantial. We want to let business owners know that we listened to their concerns regarding the inadequacy of their current solution. It is our goal to provide these best in class features to our customers at no additional cost. Our business web packages include a 256-bit SSL Certificate as well as a Point. Click. Publish. website builder. It is our goal with these tools to empower business owners so they can get their website online quickly, securely and with minimal coding knowledge".
