Aplus.net Named to Inc. 5000 List

Aplus.net, a leading web hosting company and internet solutions provider, boasts strong revenue growth over the last three years allowing it to be ranked 4,060 on Inc. Magazine's 5000 list for 2009.

The list examines privately held companies throughout the United States and ranks them based on percentage revenue growth from 2005-2008.

"Aplus.net is honored to join the ranks of many other great companies on this list", said Amanda Rusich, Aplus.net' director of marketing. It's our dedication to our customers that has allowed this continuous growth over the last decade of offering web hosting solutions to meet small business needs.

On July 31, 2009, Hostopia.com Inc., a unit of Deluxe Corporation, closed an acquisition of the shared hosting portion of Abacus America Inc., doing business as Aplus.net.

"This acquisition is a perfect example of what can come to fruition for a strong private brand like Aplus.net as they continue to grow even in difficult economic times," said Colin Campbell, CEO of Hostopia. "We are honored Inc. is recognizing the success Aplus.net has had in helping small businesses get and keep customers."

Aplus.net will not be eligible for the next Inc. 5000 list since a publicly traded company now owns it. However, this recognition displays Aplus.net抯 commitment to continue building a successful hosting brand in a highly competitive market while providing a full suite of online services to its small business customers.
