"DealerHost.net continues our integration into all the electronic communication needs of new and existing customers," said Steve Van Leeuwen, president of Auteo Media. "In addition to management of a dealership's inventory, e-mail and Web sites, we can now offer them a high quality system for fast and trouble-free delivery on this information to their Internet customers. This capability fits perfectly with our strategy and is in demand by many of our existing dealerships."
According to Auteo Media, the development of DealerHost.net will enable the company to offer Web site and e-mail hosting services targeting the unique needs of the automotive industry.
