Providence, Utah based WestHost Inc. has become the newest hosting company in the U.S. to offer the Miva Merchant storefront development for free throughout its entire shared hosting account selection. At the low-end, the WestHost Starter 1 account offers free Miva Merchant along with 100MB disk, 5 GIG data transfer, and 5 POP email accounts for $7.95/mo. (not including setup fees, merchant account, and merchant services).
For $54.95/mo., their high-end "E-Commerce Pro 2" account, which comes standard with 750MB disk, 15GIG data transfer, and 30 POP email accounts, is also the first to include the new Miva Merchant Pro™ bundle. Individually priced, the components included in Miva Merchant Pro™ retail for over $2,200. This new bundle includes Miva Merchant with a year of software upgrades, a Miva Merchant Limited Source Kit™ containing selected Miva Merchant sources in non-compiled Miva Script format, a license to the Miva Script Compiler™ for compiling derivative works, and Miva Service Club™ membership. Their slightly scaled down "E-Commerce Pro 1" account also includes Miva Merchant Pro™ at $34.95/mo.
"Adding Miva Merchant to all of our hosting accounts is a huge value added feature for our customers," said WestHost Inc President Christopher Russell. "Miva Merchant can be used to add a complete online Internet store to a web site or just used for the benefit of its attached marketing services. Miva Mailer and Miva Marketplace can be used by the web site customer to promote any web site."
"WestHost quickly recognized that Miva Merchant is much more than just a simple shopping cart," said Kevin Kane, VP Worldwide Sales & Support for Miva Corporation. "Miva Merchant is a complete e-commerce solution with features and capability that exceed expectations. From their new data center and offices in Utah WestHost is positioned to provide excellent e-commerce hosting service."
