Formerly known as Website Movers, the pioneer and global leader in web and data server migration services has changed its corporate name to WSM International, or simply WSM.
About WSM
WSM literally created and commercialized the server migration service industry, and has since grown to become the largest, most experienced migration services provider in the industry today. The company has progressively evolved under the same founder since 1996, initially as a web hosting and support service. Ryan Pelerin, WSM Founder, President and COO, sold that hosting service company and subsequently founded Website Movers Incorporated in 2003 as the first ever specialized web server migration company to enter the market.
Under Pelerin’s leadership, his companies have successfully completed more migrations of websites, applications, databases, servers, data, email and domains than all other migration service providers combined, and continue to expand their operations and offerings. He explains the strategy behind the new brand name:
“Although cloud migration services will always be our core business, the name WSM is designed to also spotlight the company’s comprehensive Web Solutions and Migration services and products suite”.
In addition to its industry-leading expertise in workload, web, data and email migrations to all cloud and physical servers across all technical platforms and providers, WSM products and services include:
– Cloud assessment, architecture, migration and automation/integration tools and services
– DevOps management and services
– Website and custom application development
– Website, application and server security services
– Load testing, performance tuning and server/application optimization
– Web/server architecture, configuration, maintenance, management, support and consulting
Pelerin adds “In addition to our market leading migration services, the demand for our expanded solutions and products has continued to increase dramatically from both our direct customer base as well as our partners. We’ve been actively providing these symbiotic technical services for many years, and it became clear that we needed to evolve and aggressively market our brand so that all WSM customers and partners can easily correlate our name to all the services and products we bring to the table”.
WSM revenues have increased over 500% since 2009. The company now employs more than 70 staff in 4 locations, with corporate headquarters in St. Clair Shores, MI, regional US offices in Austin, TX and global offices in Eastern Europe.
Kenan Rappuchi, WSM Partner and VP of Strategic Business Development, expects even more explosive growth as a result of an increased investment in marketing, as well as focus on technical thought leadership, enhanced partner programs, and new products which will deliver value-priced yet technically powerful solutions that WSM customers can benefit from continuously, and long after their server migrations are completed.
Rappuchi states “WSM‘s total ‘server-to-browser’ solutions suite enables our customers and partners to focus on their core business, and rely on a trusted, industry-leading technology services and products provider to comprehensively manage their hosted sites, workloads and digital assets, as well as fill any service gaps for new and existing customers. For the customer, gone forever are the days of multiple vendors, confusing SLA’s and overpriced, under-performing services or products to manage your critical business applications and servers. Simply put, if you use or provide hosting services comprised of any build or brand of cloud, hybrid or physical footprint, all of your migration, development, security, performance, DevOps, maintenance and support needs are now delivered and managed under one roof – and that roof belongs to WSM”

WSM serves customers of all sizes and industries, from SMB’s operating blogs, publication sites, social forums or e-commerce businesses, to global enterprise business leaders such as Warner Brothers, Pepsi, Ford, Chevrolet, Pep Boys, Conair, Aon, Staples, Yahoo! and many more.
