Next Monday, September 3, 2012, is Labour Day here in Canada which means some special hours for a few departments here at OpenSRS. Our Technical Support team continues to be available 24/7 to assist you.

Hours by department:

In Canada, the Labour Day marks the end of summer vacation for the kids – Tuesday it’s back to school and parents everywhere rejoice. But whether it’s a three-day long weekend where you are, or just a regular old two-day affair, we wish all of our resellers a safe, relaxing and enjoyable weekend.

Last week we had the pleasure of hosting a webinar for our resellers with Phil Shih from Structure Research. He gave his “state of the hosting industry” presentation and got us all up to date on the trends that are shaping the industry as we pass the mid point of 2012.

Like all of our webinars, we recorded the presentation for those who weren’t able to attend live. Check it out, embedded below.

We’re back with another reseller profile – this time we’re looking at WebsPlanet.

This company, based in Israel and the US, provides easy-to-use, yet powerful online presence creation tools to companies servicing small and mid-sized business. The company just recently became a reseller in order to offer domain registrations, email and other services to compliment its existing suite.

You can read the full profile here.

We’re thrilled to be working with WebsPlanet!

I’ll be hosting a free webinar this Thursday, August 9 at 11:00 A.M. (EDT) with Phil Shih from Structure Research.

If you weren’t at this year’s HostingCon conference in Boston, then this is a great opportunity to get informed and educated about the state of the hosting industry as we move through the second half of the year.

Phil Shih is the founder and Managing Director of Structure Research. Phil has covered the hosting infrastructure space for over a decade in various publications such as theWHIR.com, Computerworld, InfoWorld, Bizjournals, The Houston Chronicle and The E-commerce Times.

He’ll be providing a 45-minute long, third party overview of the state of the hosting and cloud infrastructure service industry and a projection of its future. The session will feature detailed discussion of industry trends, proprietary market share data and analysis and helpful advice on how to succeed in a rapidly changing marketplace.

As with all OpenSRS webinars, this is a free event and open to all to attend.
