E-commerce solution provider AmeriCommerce (americommerce.com) announced on Wednesday it has selected Internap’s (internap.com) Houston, Texas facility as the primary data center for its shopping cart software hosting services, positioning the company for future growth and the highest service quality possible.

Internap says its patented technology, which finds the fastest route from servers to Web site visitors for every page view, has provided AmeriCommerce online stores with increased performance and availability.

AmeriCommerce made the switch from the Data Foundry data center in Houston’s Galleria area to the Internap data center in downtown Houston to meet increasing expansion and service level requirements. The e-commerce solution provider plans to use Data Foundry’s Austin data center for a disaster recovery presence, providing automatic off-site backups of all databases and online store content.

“Internap was clearly the winner when it came to quality bandwidth, service, reliability and expansion potential,” says Stefan Barlow, IT director of AmeriCommerce. “Since the transition to the new facilities in early September, we have noticed a significant increase in speed across the board for our online store customers.”

Private label Web solutions provider ResellerClub (resellerclub.com) announced on Wednesday it will accept pre-applications for the .mobi top-level domain for $29.99.

Domain name applications will be taken on a first come first served basis and duplicate applications for the same domain name will not be accepted. Upon successful registration, the domain names will be awarded to the applicant without any auction or any additional payments. ResellerClub says in case it is unable to register the domain name, the fees will be fully refunded.

“The mobile Web market is witnessing rapid growth, with over 1.5 billion mobile phones worldwide, and the WAP Usage in the US alone is expected to grow by a whopping 41 percent in 2008,” says Bhavin Turakhia, CEO of ResellerClub. “The launch of .mobi will not only boost the industry’s growth rate but will also give resellers and their customers a brand new revenue stream and an opportunity to work along mobile content as well as service providers and allied industries.”

The .mobi TLD will be available for pre-application to all resellers and their sub-resellers and customers until September 26, after which point ResellerClub will attempt to register the domains, as well as open the door for live registrations. ResellerClub says the move will enable resellers to augment their products and services and make a foray into the rapidly expanding mobile Internet industry.
