Eponym Launches a Blog Hosting Tool in 2006

Posted on April 3, 2006

ponym must believe that 2006 is not too late to launch a blog hosting tool. Eponym's free blog hosting service includes 10MB of storage and 100MB per month of bandwidth. They offer more storage and bandwidth with the fee-based packages that start at $4.95 per month. They have a comparison chart that compares Eponym to Blogger, Typepad and LiveJournal. They also include a blog search tool that appears on Eponym blogs.

Despite being late to the party Eponym says they have already signed on 9,000 blogs: "Well, here we are two months later, and we're adding almost 500 blogs a day and are just over 9,000 total blogs. The growth has been well beyond our expectations."

500 a day is impressive for a two-month old service.
