Love is the KillerApp.

A lot has undeniably happened in the internet industry since we started in 1996. Many people have tried their luck online in the hope of making quick, easy money. Most of them have since left the industry, because they lacked one very important thing: a love of the medium – the internet!

Our starting point in 1996 was a fascination with the internet and the international network that was emerging, and we decided we wanted to work with it professionally. We found a name for the company. Then we did a fair amount of research and decided that our main service would be web hosting.

All right, there were times in the late '90s when we felt behind the times because we couldn't report a “burn rate” of X million in venture capital. But today we're glad we stuck to steady, organic, self-financed growth.
