KickApps Small Business & Non Profit Solutions Featured in Go Daddy Hosting Connection |
Enables Small Businesses and Non-Profits Around the World to Benefit from KickApps’ Industry Leading Social Media Platform and Go Daddy’s Industry Leading Domain Registration and Hosting ServicesNEW YORK, March 30, 2009 — KickApps (www.kickapps.com), the industry’s leading on-demand social media, video player and widget platform, today announced it has been added to Go Daddy’s Hosting Connection service, making it easy for Go Daddy customers to add social and media capabilities to their websites. Under the agreement, Go Daddy’s hosting customers will be eligible for special offers and pricing on KickApps solutions. The KickApps solution lowers the barriers to adoption of social and media applications on websites for small businesses, organizations and individuals seeking to engage customers and unite people and content to build a resourceful and trustworthy community. Social media has evolved from being a novel way for people to connect online to a meaningful vehicle for driving deeper customer relationships, growing online audiences, raising awareness about critical issues and organizing online, as well as creating new revenue and donation opportunities. With KickApps, small businesses and non-commercial organizations can easily create highly engaging social, interactive, distributed, and data-informed websites. Using the same simple-to-use drag-and-drop online applications that are used by numerous global brands, small business owners and non-profits can deploy their own KickApps powered social networks, custom video players, photo and video sharing, blogs, message boards and widgets on their websites. “Today’s web has evolved dramatically from static and boring destinations that do little to truly engage a website’s audience or a company’s customers,” said Alex Blum, CEO, KickApps. “Using KickApps’ solutions for social and media applications, any small business or organization can cost-effectively reinvent their website with meaningful results. Our offering to Go Daddy customers is a message to small businesses and non-commercial organizations around the world that they too can take advantage of everything that today’s web has to offer.” “The strength of a community comes from its ability to transform ideas into action through shared activities. Social media tools power up web addresses to create dynamic relationships faster,” says Alexa Raad, CEO, .ORG, The Public Interest Registry, the company that operates .ORG Top-Level Domain. “We are excited to see Go Daddy and KickApps partner to offer comprehensive tools and resources to the .ORG community.” Go Daddy hosting clients use Hosting Connection to install an extensive list of popular applications for their websites with a single click, including Joomla, WordPress and Drupal. The addition of KickApps adds the industry’s leading self-service hosted social and media platform to its catalog of essential tools for creating websites. As a one-stop-shop for hosting needs, Go Daddy’s hosting services provide generous disk space amounts and bandwidth, 24/7/365 Customer Support, world-class data centers and a guaranteed uptime of 99.9%. “Go Daddy is all about doing things easily and affordably,” said Go Daddy CEO and Founder Bob Parsons. “That’s why we created Hosting Connection. It’s just one more way we provide our customers an easy solution for their needs. Adding KickApps to the lineup gives our customers even greater flexibility to get their site just how they want it.”
