New York, NY (September 9th, 2010) – When you think web host you don’t think simple, beautiful design. You usually associate web hosting with a means to an end. It is where designers come and upload their beautiful designs after the design process has ended. Actual web hosts are rarely arbiters of good design. To micfo, however, an international and Better Business Bureau accredited web hosting company, this did not make sense. After eight years of hosting, micfo decided to change its image to reflect its consumer first ethos.
“You wouldn’t sell beautiful and expensive clothes in a dusty hard to navigate backwoods shop would you?” says executive director Amir Golestan. “Why would you host your business on a site that was less than inspiring and hard to use?”
This thought process inspired micfo’s rebranding. Established in 2002 and growing to include offices across the United States and the UK, the new micfo site combines cutting edge technology with unparalleled support all while engaging the end user to create a unique web hosting experience. The design, which was the largest focus of the rebranding, has garnered interest from top design sites because of its form and function.
micfo also created a blog which is an integral part of the experience and educates consumers on a wide range of web related topics as well as entertains. It is an online portal for those seeking information about reliable web hosting as well as relevant news about what is going on in the world. The blog positions micfo to become not only a leading web hosting company, but to quickly become a leader in the web information sector.
