MySQL Database
There is just no stopping ArisHost! The company just had a soft launch for their MySQL Database Add-On Service, making this popular database software available to new signups and longtime users for several weeks now. Newbies to ArisHost need to just select this service when they signup for their domains; while those already with accounts can just log into their control panel and install MySQL.
"Believe it or not, we are offering our MySQL Database service for a very reasonable $2.50 a month. It's just further testament to the company's goal of giving more to our clients for less. We would always strive towards that."
MySQL uses the Standard Query Language, and lets webmasters create, revise and retrieve information from databases. It's a great tool in creating dynamic websites, and this new offering from ArisHost can only mean more value for money for its clients.

The eCommerce Revival-Potential and Growth
Recent estimates peg a tremendous growth in eCommerce opportunity by the end of 2001. A survey conducted by Datamonitor.com forecasts around $38.7 billion in eCommerce revenue in the US alone despite the recent spate of dotcom deaths. According to their consumer survey, most of the surviving dotcoms will be B2B commerce business. They further reveal that revenue possibilities could be tenfold in hybrid transactions, making the estimated billions just the start of eCommerce revival. Datamonitor.com advises that opportunities are there for both dotcoms, and IT vendors that help them maintain business.
The first quarter alone of this year attests to this potential. According to the Census Bureau of the US Department of Commerce, the period has earned around $7 billion in online sales, which is a 33.5 percent increase from the previous year's first quarter earnings. This is supported by Reuters Business Insight, which forecasts growth in B2C eCommerce by 2002.
ECommerce has immense market potential such that it is said to be the first medium to actually have a truly global reach. It can effortlessly cross borders through easy Internet access. Its advantages include low transaction costs and entry barriers, and easy information access. It is also good that measures have taken to break down the few obstacles to eCommerce, such as those concerning infrastructure, trust, reliability and regulatory issues.
