October 28, 2006 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Web hosting provider Traverse Web (http://www.traversehosting.com) announced this week their "Pay it Forward" hosting program, designed to raise funds for non-profit organizations.
Inspired by the Pay it Forward movement, Traverse Web will provide a free domain name registration and one year of free web hosting on the understanding that users should bring one paying customer into the scheme at some stage during their first 12 months of usage. Once a paying customer is registered to the scheme, another year of domain name registration and web hosting is credited to their account. Traverse Web also reserves 25% of the referred paying customer's web hosting funds and donates them to charity.
"I have always felt it was my mission in life to help others and to achieve that goal with the maximum of reach, I have brought my mission to the web,” explained President of Traverse Web, Mr. Michael W. Henton. “With this program, start up enterprises, local groups, churches, and even classrooms will all have a ready to go website to launch their own mission online. By providing them with a platform on the web, groups will now become more visible in their community in far less time and now have permanent testaments to their mission available online. By funding their purpose with both free web space and dollars received from referred paying customers, we go a long way towards helping them accomplish their mission. The 25% of funds we donate directly to these groups is an ongoing residual payment for the lifetime of the referred paying customer and can become a very large source of revenue over time. We believe goodwill comes full circle and that by Paying it Forward today, we can look forward to an even more rewarding tomorrow."
The "Pay it Forward" free web hosting plan offers 700MB of web space, 70GB of monthly data transfer, 70 email accounts, a free online content management system, mySQL database manager, a mailing list manager, and toll free technical support.
