RealMetrics, LLC, an industry leading provider of objective performance metrics, unveiled today their top hosting performers for the month of October 2006. RealMetrics has conducted over 10,000,000 performance and reliability tests on actual accounts with Shared hosts, VPS hosts and Email hosts.
Wichita, KS (PRWEB) November 10, 2006 -- RealMetrics, LLC unveiled today their list of award winning performers for the month of October 2006. Leading the pack was Webmail.us and Tuffmail.com. Both companies focus on providing hosted email solutions and received perfect 10 out of 10 rankings in all metric categories. Once thought of as a niche or specialty market, email hosting is now mainstream and mission critical to most if not all businesses. The RealMetrics performance tests for email hosting include uptime, both internal and external email delivery reliability, both internal and external email delivery latency and support response time.
"Our tests are not a cake-walk!" proclaimed Rick Ralston, president of RealMetrics. "We send multiple test emails from several locations across the U.S. every 2 minutes to each provider. A perfect 10 in the delivery reliability metric means a provider has delivered 100% of those emails within an hour. A perfect 10 in delivery latency means their average delivery time is under 1 minute."
"Performance, reliability, and responsiveness to customers are our top priorities at Webmail.us," said Patrick Matthews, chief executive officer at Webmail.us, Inc. "We are happy to have RealMetrics holding the industry accountable and recognizing our dedication to providing customers with the rock solid email hosting that they deserve."
After a rough month in September, both Shared and VPS hosting providers stepped it up in October. Two providers rose to the top in both Uptime and Web Speed metrics. Aplus.Net was the overall leader in Shared Hosting Uptime and Web Speed and VPSLink was the overall leader in Uptime and Web Speed for VPS providers. Both VPSLink and Aplus.Net maintained 100% Uptime on the RealMetrics accounts for the entire month of October 2006.
