Hosting Company Media Temple Is Bought by GoDaddy

GoDaddy has made another acquisition – its sixth purchase in less than two years.  The company best known for domain names has bought Media Temple, a hosting company founded in 1998. Media Temple, which also goes by the unusual designation (mt), has over 125,000 customers and hosts more than 1.5 million websites.This is not specifically a small business play as some recent GoDaddy acquisitions have been.  However, small businesses and entrepreneurs know and use Media Temple.  But the company also hosts websites of some very large businesses, including Volkswagen and The Wall Street Journal.
