Aplus.Net, a leading web site hosting and web development firm for small and medium-sized businesses (SMB), announced today that they have released a major upgrade to their popular Connector line of products.

Initially released in September, 2004, Aplus.Net’s Connectors allow website owners to automatically list their online store inventory with Amazon.com, eBay, Froogle and shopping.com. The primary benefit with this “remote store” tie-in is that small businesses can dramatically increase sales by automatically putting their products in front of millions of potential customers. Any e-commerce web site using Miva shopping cart can benefit from the connectors.

The new Connector upgrade features give site owners the ability to automate repetitive tasks, allowing for more sales with less effort. Two notable features include the ability to list multiple quantities of products on the remote sites at one time, and the ability to automatically subtract items that have been sold and paid for on remote sites (like eBay) from store inventory.

“Aplus.Net’s Connectors level the playing field for the small to medium online stores by allowing them to sell at world class sites like Amazon, eBay and Google,” said Ivan Vachovsky, Chief Executive Officer of Aplus.Net, “The new upgrades add a powerful back office functionality, thus increasing productivity and profitability and reducing the expenses to the user.”

Existing customers can download the new upgrade for free by visiting Aplus.Net’s connector landing page, located at http://hosting.aplus.net/aplusconnectors.html. The Connector line of products is available for purchase via the Aplus.Net’s website (www.aplus.net), and also at MivaCentral.com.

Aplus.Net, a leading web site hosting and development firm for small and medium-sized businesses (SMB), announced today the launch of a browser-based web conferencing service that dramatically simplifies online conferencing.

Provided through a partnership between San Diego based Aplus.Net and WiredRed Software, e/pop Web Conferencing is a perfect solution for businesses that want to harness the efficiency and savings of web conferencing. Aplus.Net is offering a dedicated server to each conferencing customer in order to eliminate interference and slowness problems typical of shared conferencing services. Unlike many competitors, Aplus.Net will not charge premiums for the many extra options included with the service.

“The e/pop Web Conferencing service has all the features of Industry leaders like WebEx and sells for a fraction of the price.” said Ivan Vachovsky, Chief Executive Officer of Aplus.Net. “It is a part of our commitment to provide the best technologies for an affordable price to our customers.”

“With our technology, web conferencing is like meeting in person. Aplus.Net has taken it to the next level, providing complete web and desktop video conferencing to companies of all sizes, even those without a full-time IT staff,” said Steven Peltier, Chief Executive Officer of WiredRed Software.

Getting started with an e/pop Web Conference is as easy as pointing a web browser at a single URL. Customers will appreciate the ease of service initiation; there is no server set-up because Aplus.net provides complete hardware, server software and bandwidth in a turnkey plan.

e/pop Web Conferencing software offers many improvements over leading industry services. For example, many web conference services fail to live up to user expectations due to slow or chunky audio/visual quality. While some services offer solutions to the A/V quality problem by extra cost add-ons, e/pop Web Conferencing offers high-quality audio and video as a standard feature. Aside from the standard high-quality video, e/pop Web Conferencing also offers fully adjustable audio and video quality for each conference participant – allowing the individual user to accommodate for bandwidth constraints that may be experienced at a specific location.

The real-time aspect of e/pop Web Conferencing is further complemented by immediate “page turning” on PowerPoint presentations. Because presentations are cached on each meeting participant’s computer, only the “change” commands are sent over the Internet. As a result, changes are immediate.

e/pop Web Conferencing also feature intuitive permission settings and meeting controls which can be established and used by the chair of the meeting. For example, users can be “promoted” to presenter status, demoted, or even expelled from a conference. While management of the software is easy, Aplus.Net provides 24×7 support to answer any questions that may result from world meetings held at odd hours.

Current e/pop Web Conferencing software clients include Barr Management, Bond Street Capital, Oxford Global Resources, Denver Health, CRT Medical, Cinergy, and the Tindall Corporation. PC Magazine wrote that e/pop conferencing is “a lower-priced Web conferencing solution, and has plenty of collaboration options.”
