Google Gets Into Hosting
Google announced that it was launching a Google Apps For Your Domain service today. The new service includes Gmail, Google Talk, Google Calendar and web page design, publishing and hosting via Google Page Creator. The user interface can be customised with the user’s own branding. Administration will be via a web interface.
It looks like the hosting business just got a lot more interesting.
According to the press release:
“Google will provide organizations with two choices of service.
- A standard edition of Google Apps for Your Domain is available today
as a beta product without cost to domain administrators or end users.
Key features include 2 gigabytes of email storage for each user, easy
to use customization tools, and help for administrators via email or an
online help center. Furthermore, organizations that sign up during the
beta period will not ever have to pay for users accepted during that
period (provided Google continues to offer the service).
- A premium version of the product is being developed for organizations
with more advanced needs. More information, including details on
pricing, will be available soon.”
