[/frame]Irish cloud host Spiral Hosting announced earlier this week that they have acquired one of my favorite community hosts – SpeedySparrow. The financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
Based out of Melbourne, Australia – SpeedySparrow has a large Australian and American client base, both of which Spiral Hosting plans to tap into with this new acquisition.
Headquartered in Ireland with offices in Belfast and Dublin, Spiral Hosting expanded into the US hosting market back in May 2010 with the acqusition of the hosting division of Eideashop.
“Spiral Hosting are delighted to announce the acquisition of SpeedySparrow,” Peter Armstrong, director of Spiral Hosting said. “This acquisition allows us to expand and invest in our operations in Australia. It represents a significant investment in our web hosting infrastructure, customer service and technical support.”
“The new merged company will result in improvements for all Spiral Hosting and SpeedySparrow customers. Our top three objectives are excellent servers, fast support and most importantly happy customers,” Armstrong said. “The SpeedySparrow team will be joining Spiral Hosting. We’ll be taking the best of both businesses and continuing to build our hosting services, cloud infrastructure and 24/7 support.”

If you have never heard of SpeedySparrow head on over to the Service Reviews section and read my own review of the SpeedySparrow shared hosting services.
Hello Mike,
As of the moment, the two companies are not merged. They are owned by one company but all services provided by each company are not merged together so they still act as their own entities.
SpeedySparrow is still well and truly alive and both companies are thriving well within the industry. We hope to improve further overall improvements with new networks, and security enhancements to our networks.
We are always aiming to meet expectations and we hope to do that as time goes on, we are hoping to possibly implement new payment methods in time as well.
