Web hosting is a competitive business with, literally, 10’s of thousands of web hosting companies worldwide. The majority of all web hosts focus their efforts on North America and Western Europe. There is some focus on Asia with their internet boom. But Africa, South America, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East are prime burgeoning areas that receive little focus from the major web hosting companies. Over the next 10 years we see tremendous growth in these markets, and some savvy web hosting companies can ensure great long term growth potential by establishing their brands in these markets.

Trying to start a world class datacenter in Ghana, for example, has huge hurdles. Just transferring money in and out of the country is a laborious process that includes government approval for any cash transfer. Another factor is the major credit card companies. They do not issue cards to customers in places like Ghana or Tanzania. For a web host to manage customers from these countries they cannot have auto-billing. Establishing a US brand there might be worth the extra headaches because you already have an advantage over local businesses with infrastructure and billing systems. |
