April 22nd may officially be Earth Day, but A2 Hosting is celebrating all month. In collaboration with CarbonFund.org, when you purchase any new hosting package during the month of April, A2 Hosting will plant 3-trees on your behalf! We do offer FutureServe Green Hosting after all and are 100% carbon neutral! We’re also based in Ann Arbor, MI (AKA Tree Town), the home of over 50,000 trees and over 150 parks!

As our list of supported platforms continues to grow, we’d like to take a moment and look at one of the platforms we support that can make a big difference for PHP developers – Zend Server.

Our solid state drive (SSD) Hosting has attracted a lot of attention since we launched it last month. Our SSDs do load pages up to 300% faster compared to standard hard drives after all. Would you like to try out our SSD Hosting? It’s your lucky month then! During March we’re raffling off two, annual Prime+SSD accounts! That’s a $131.88 value!

According to recent estimates, over 570 new websites are created every minute. Even the most unique sites have competitors. That’s why your website’s performance is more important than ever. Remember, your website visitors are not patient. You can have an enormous advertising budget to drive traffic to your site, but if your site is slow, your visitors are just going to hit their back button to find a competing site.
