NewsHosting Review

In January 2009 NewsHosting announced increased binary retention and connections. They now offer 190 days of binary retention along with 20 connections at the same price.

Binary Retention - NewsHosting provides two retention levels. They offer 190 day retention in their NHXL Unlimited plan as well as the 10 GB/month NH Lite plan. They also offer an 150 day NH Unlimited plan.

Speed - NewsHosting did well in our speed tests with an average of 5 Mbps on large binary files. The NHXL plan is the better performer as it includes 20 connections.

Security - the NHXL and NH Lite plans come with free SSL encryption. This coupled with 20 connections leads to strong performance.

Pricing plans - NewsHosting offers their 190 day NHXL plan with 20 connections and unlimited downloads for € 14,78 a month and the NH Lite 10 GB/month plan at € 7,41.  They also offer an 150 day, 12 connection NH Unlimited plan at € 11,08 a month.

Discounts - NewsHosting offers deeply discounted term subscriptions. Save $50 off annual NHXL subscriptions and $25 off annual NH Unlimited subscriptions. They also offer discounted 6 month plans. More details.

Bottom Line - With the latest upgrades NewsHosting raised the bar moving from 150 days of binary retention up to 190 days on the way to 250 days. NewsHosting has been around a long time and continues to better its offering.
