[frame align=”right”][/frame]MediaTemple has announced they have launched a new managed WordPress hosting package called Premium WordPress Hosting. The package has a cost of $29 per month which rivals the cost of WPEngine; however MediaTemple does stand out with one huge feature. Premium WordPress Hosting includes a business-class, all-in-one email system, including calendars, contacts, and full IMAP support. So you can easily set up and manage custom email aliases for yourself or your clients — up to 1,000 addresses across all your WordPress domains.

MediaTemple is owned by GoDaddy, who launched their own WordPress hosting service earlier this year. Both companies however operate independently of each other. The Premium WordPress Hosting product includes a WordPress hosting solution optimized for web developers and web designers, a customer staging environment, website templating, and a WordPress theme market “created by designers for designers.

Focusing on designers is something that Media Temple has done since its inception, and is reflected in its recent website redesign. Customer support with its Premium WordPress Hosting product is 24/7/365 and is provided by its WordPress-trained customer service staff.
