Free Shipping on Hookahs After Web Site Went Down

Released on = May 16, 2007, 10:20 am

Press Release Author = Smokeandhookah.com

Industry = Entertainment

Press Release Summary = Hookah retailer and distributor, SmokeandHookah.com,
experienced nearly 10 days of downtime due to what they allege as "poorly managed
servers". Now that things are back online, they are offering free shipping.

Press Release Body = Bahrani Distribution Corp., has been working around the clock
to get caught up with all outstanding orders after their hookah retail web site,
http://www.smokeandhookah.com, was down for nearly ten days.

The web site was originally hosted on servers managed by a Fort Lauderdale Florida
company which failed to conduct server updates responsibly. Ultimately, this
resulted in the downtime which forced SmokeandHookah.com to do a last minute move
which was completed May 15th.

The hookah retailer relies on the web site's technology to automate shipping,
billing, and returns. With the site being completely inaccessible, only wholesale
orders could be successfully processed leaving retail orders delayed for nearly one
week.

With all of this behind the growing hookah company, SmokeandHookah.com is looking
forward to the new stability of their web site along with a planned renovation and
newly offered product line due to be released next month.

Bahrani Distribution president, Aaron Butts commented today, "This was something
that was out of our control but we feel terrible that our customers' orders were
delayed due to this technical error."

Since the web site was down for 10 days, the Bahrani president declared that
SmokeandHookah.com would not charge for shipping on all United States domestic
ground orders for 10 days. The offer will expire on May 28, 2007 and no limits apply
to the offer regardless of order size and order minimum.

The shipping promotion will also serve as a way for Bahrani to sell out
discontinuing products and make room for the new items going on the newly designed
SmokeandHookah.com. For more information visit http://www.smokeandhookah.com.
