Phoenix, Ariz. (March 20, 2006) -- IPOWER, Inc., (www.ipower.com) a leading website
hosting provider for small businesses, announced today that its customer numbers,
which have exploded in recent months, have reached a total of 400,000 customer

EVP and VP of Marketing for IPOWER. "We have found a solid formula for success that
I know will propel our growth for a long time to come."
IPOWER, founded in October 2001, is one of the fastest-growing companies in the web
hosting industry, due in a large part to its simple, fast, do-it-yourself solutions
for small businesses. The company has experienced double-digit revenue growth annually
since its inception. Its growth has also been fueled by its ability to adapt to the
ever-growing needs of the Internet marketplace by allowing for additional segmentation
of its markets, helping the company to deliver new products and product enhancements
tailored directly to user needs.
IPOWER plans for the future include devoting additional resources to the development
of a "we do it for you," more consultative approach in order to address the needs of
small- and midsized-business customers and partners. "Controlling enterprise operating
costs is becoming a bigger issue every single day," said Thomas Gorny, CEO of IPOWER.
Citing a recent Gartner survey that ranks controlling enterprise operating costs as
the second largest business and technology priority by 1,400 CIOs in 2006, Gorny said,
"We believe IPOWER is ready to help companies address enterprise operating costs with
its SBS services product line. We have always developed our products and services based
on listening to what people need, and are committed to servicing the needs of end users
