Based in San Francisco,CA, Laughing Squid was founded in 1998. Laughing Squid is an independent web hosting provider offering services to clients around the world. The company has additional offices in New York and Portland. In addition to standard web hosting plans, in April of 2009 Laughing Squid has launched cloud hosting services. Cloud hosting allows for data being stored on cluster servers instead of traditional stand along servers many web hosting providers still employ. The cloud hosting solutions provide better reliability while at the same time reducing the down times and improves the performance of the websites that tend to have unpredictable spikes in traffic.
