I (that’s me, Ken) just came back from the FC Club networking event tonight. To be frank the organizer really need more polish at the door but the people attending were great.
If you are dropping by this blog from our event contact, feel free to leave a note and say hi.
From the conversations, I found that not many people know what web hosting is all about. Most think that it is creating a website. Well, it is close but not exactly that. Actually, after a website is created, the files are hosted with a company like us so that the site may be accessed from the Internet. Perhaps I should write another more detailed post on this topic.
Back to networking. As a new company in the market we certainly need to gain more exposure including networking events. I will be attending other networking sessions in Shanghai. Let me know the event you are going to and we could meet up!
See you.

For those that are in China, I hope you have a great Chinese New Year holiday. It look like not many people took our China hosting survey over the holiday period.
So if you haven’t, head over and give us your thoughts on how we can be the hosting company that you want to do business with. Do let your friends in China know about us too.
Technically we are operational, however the holiday season delayed our work somewhat. Frankly we underestimated the holiday disruption. So it will take a little longer to test and get ready.
But if you have any hosting requirement right now, please give me a buzz. (021) 54243435 or email sales (at) 59box dot com. I will help get your website up and running.

沪B2-20070010. That’s our newly minted permit as an Internet Service Provider (ISP) in Shanghai China. This string of code is a must, according to China’s regulation, for company providing ISP (or hosting) service. Look for it if you are looking for hosting in China.
So what does the number means to you? For the start it is an indication of our focus on providing a legitimate hosting service that meets the expectation of customers and the society that we operate in.
Our services include web hosting, domain name registration, managed server, server co-location and related web services - services to help companies launch and maintain their web presence, specifically in China.
Having used many hosting providers in China over the years for our own hosting needs, we have had enough of endless issues and decided to take things into our own hand. After going through the channels, we finally got ourselves approved as an ISP.
We are probably the first hosting company in China to launch in English and with a company blog. Hopefully this brings some familiarity to customers accustomed to the language and to open communication channels.
If you are new to this market or you had been going around in circles looking for the right hosting partner in China, we might just be THE ONE that you are praying for.
Thank you for dropping by our blog. We are expecting to start business after Chinese New Year. So in the meantime, leave us your comments and we look forward to serve you!
