Aggressive growth ranks Aplus.net as one of the fastest growing companies in
the country




OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Sept. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Aplus.net, a leading
web hosting company and internet solutions provider, boasts strong revenue
growth over the last three years allowing it to be ranked 4,060 on Inc.
Magazine's 5000 list for 2009. The list examines privately held companies
throughout the United States and ranks them based on percentage revenue growth
from 2005-2008.

"Aplus.net is honored to join the ranks of many other great companies on this
list," said Amanda Rusich, Aplus.net's director of marketing. "It's our
dedication to our customers that has allowed this continuous growth over the
last decade of offering web hosting solutions to meet small business needs."

On July 31, 2009, Hostopia.com Inc., a unit of Deluxe Corporation, closed an
acquisition of the shared hosting portion of Abacus America Inc., doing
business as Aplus.net.

"This acquisition is a perfect example of what can come to fruition for a
strong private brand like Aplus.net as they continue to grow even in difficult
economic times," said Colin Campbell, CEO of Hostopia. "We're honored Inc. is
recognizing the success Aplus.net has had in helping small businesses get and
keep customers."

Aplus.net will not be eligible for the next Inc. 5000 list since a publicly
traded company now owns it. However, this recognition displays Aplus.net's
commitment to continue building a successful hosting brand in a highly
competitive market while providing a full suite of online services to its
small business customers.
