Good news from Dallas! Limestone Networks, a web hosting company, has just acquired 4 other hosting brands. This is great news for Limestone Networks and its growth potential.
Now, with these new brands, they can offer additional options on top of their core, but still manageable. Smaller hosting companies have typically offered great features but no power. Limestone has the power, and now they will have additional features.
It’s like big company power meets the creativity of a small company.
I think this is positive for the hosting sector. Big fish tend to feel over priced or too corporate and small fish find it hard to scale. No man's land companies like limestone provide us something useful—a reasonable price point coupled with reliable services.
