Siteopia Acquires UK Domain and Hosting Company Gridstar Networking Ltd

June 15, 2012 - PRLog -- UK domain registration and hosting provider, Siteopia.com today announced the acquisition of Gridstar Networking Ltd for an undisclosed cash sale.

The acquisition of Gridstar gives a boost to the customer base of emerging brand Siteopia within the domain registration and hosting market.

Gridstar Networking Ltd was formed in 1999 as a company that offers fast and reliable web hosting at competitive pricing.  Both businesses offer highly complimentary services and share an almost identical company ethos of putting the customer at the forefront of operations.

Over 12 years, Gridstar built up a customer base spanning Europe, USA, Malaysia and Japan.  Customers of Gridstar will now continue their services under management of the Siteopia brand.

Kevin Savage and Jason Smith, both Directors of Siteopia Ltd are by no means new to the domain and hosting market, having previously founded and led their former Internet company, Namesco Ltd to be the UKs fourth largest ISP.

The successful entrepreneurs aim to build new brand Siteopia into a leading Internet service company. http://www.siteopia.com continues to grow,  strengthening its brand,  offering domain registration services,  hosting, email and SEO services.

Siteopia says that none of Gridstar’s customers will be affected by the acquisition, as Siteopia will continue to deliver services and support customers from its Worcestershire, UK head office.

Jason Smith, Managing Director of Siteopia said ‘The acquisition of Gridstar is a real boost to our brand. It widens our customer base whilst providing us with valuable cross-sell opportunities.  We look forward to continuing to provide the high level of service Gridstar customers are accustomed to.”
