Webair Receives ICANN Accreditation

NEW YORK — Internet hosting company Webair has received ICANN accreditation, making it a one-stop shop for webmaster hosting and domain registration.

ICANN accreditation allows the hosting company, founded in 1996, to provide services to online companies of all varieties and sizes to sell top-level domains at discounted prices.

“Webmasters can now come to us like they would a GoDaddy to register domains at big discounts,” Webair CEO Michael Christopher told XBIZ.

Christopher said the company currently offers .com, .net and .org TLDs, but added that other domains such as .mobi will be available soon. “This will be a really big money-saver for webmasters.”

“This is a huge step for our company,” Christopher said. “We host hundreds of thousands domains, and have been working toward ICANN accreditation for some time now. It was a logical decision that will save existing clients a lot of money in the long run, and will offer added incentive for potential clients as well.”

Webair will sell TLDs at $5.99 or less.

In connection with the ICANN accreditation, Christopher said Webair plans to launch a full-feature website soon. The site will include a Webair Control Panel, branded as the EZPanel, to support newly added company features.

“The software we are integrating into this second version of the Webair Control Panel allows webmasters to manage domains, hosting accounts, virtually everything associated with the webmaster services we offer, from one convenient location," said Christopher, adding that the panel can be co-branded and resold by Webair customers to new clients.

The EZPanel includes SiteReptile and ObjectCube DRM integration. It manages service notification, supports the setup of customized monitors, manages DNS servers and allows for unified server management across all data centers from a single location.
