NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 06/16/10 -- Datagram, the provider of hosting and network services, announces today they have been chosen by Paper Publishing Company to be host of papermag.com, the sister site of Paper magazine. Paper Magazine (www.papermag.com) is a New York City-based independent magazine that focuses on pop-culture. Datagram's network and managed services infrastructure will ensure a seamless experience for people visiting Paper Magazine's website.

"Datagram is excited to become a part of Paper Magazine," commented Michael Dietze, Datagram's Vice President of Sales. "This is a great opportunity for us to be a part of another fast growing online media site! We currently provide services to many other online and social media clients, so hosting for Paper Magazine is a perfect fit for us."

Paper Magazine delivers eight issues per year of the best in pop-culture, as well as a weekly VIP Newsletter. Paper was one of the first magazines to offer its content online, and has remained a leader in features and functionality on their site. Their newly designed site will be all about social media, once again keeping them at the forefront on the Internet as a destination for those who follow fashion, pop-culture, nightlife, music, art, and film.

Datagram owns and operates a state-of-the-art, New York City metro area Internet backbone and multiple datacenters in order to provide the best overall experience for its customers' online applications. An independent study in 2009 found Datagram to be one of the top hosts for social media sites, with customers such as The Huffington Post, CaféMom, and Gawker Media relying on Datagram for hosting services.

"I choose Datagram's hosting services because they know how to build a reliable, scalable, and secure hosting environment, which will help Paper Magazine succeed," commented David Hershkovits, Publisher & Editor in Chief. "I love the economic value, simplicity and hassle-free aspects that make hosting with Datagram a viable option for social media sites."

The success of any robust website is directly tied to the reliability and performance of the underlying service provider. "Basically, the website is only as good as the network delivering it," continued Hershkovits. "If the graphics render slowly or real-time applications are delayed, people won't look at it."

After considering various competitive solutions, Paper Magazine principals decided that the combination of Datagram's performance and managed hosting services was an obvious choice for their new platform, providing guaranteed network performance and a secure, scalable hosting environment.
