Today's Web sites are no longer electronic
brochures, but the hubs of business's sales
and marketing initiatives -- supporting branding,
store fronts, order processing, customer care
and more.
Such increasingly sophisticated requirements
combined with unreliable technical competencies
and stretched resources make SMBs a prime target
for outsourced Web hosting services.
Indeed, small businesses with Web sites prefer
to outsource Web services, according to IDC,
which estimates that by 2008, nearly 80 percent
will turn to third parties for Web-based e-commerce
enablement.
Find out how your communication services company
can fill this need by capitalizing on your
trusted relationships with SMBs to increase
revenue (up to 5x's the industry average) and
improve customer retention in this free, live
Webinar sponsored by xchange and Hostopia.

- Identify high-growth market segments --
who they are, what they need and how to communicate
with them
- Learn about the latest trends in Web services
for SMBs
- Discover the most in-demand applications
for SMBs
