Newshosting Fresh New Site Design : Unlimited Special

July 29, 2010 by

Newshosting recently launched a new site design along with a $12.95 unlimited Usenet special.  Let’s take a look at the latest edition of Newshosting.com.

The site is appealing.  First highlighting the Newshosting 14 day free Usenet trial and $12.95 a month for a year unlimited special.  In addition the homepage points out the advantages of the Newshosting service in an easy to read manner along with some nice eye candy.

It appears that high retention, 256-bit SSL encryption and unlimited speed are now included with all Newshosting Usenet plans.  For our money we would choose the Unlimited account as 30 connections is plenty.   Unlimited speed means Newhosting doesn’t cap download speeds.  For those new to Usenet the site also offers helpful features including step-by-step videos to help learn more about newsgroups, configure a newsreader, search, download and post to Usenet.

To learn more read our Newshosting review or sign up for a 14 day free trial.

Newshosting Two Week Free Trial + Special Discounts

May 3, 2010 by

On April 23rd we posted on the newly released Newshosting specials which include NHXL access for $15.95 and NH Unlimited for $13.95 a month.  Today Newshosting added a two week free trial to the mix.  Sign up for either special and enjoy the first 14 days and up to 10 GB of downloads free of charge to test the service.

Who cares?  Hasn’t Newshosting been offering a free trial for a long time?  Why is this any different?  This is ALOT different.  Most providers who offer special pricing either do so without a free trial or end the trial with retail pricing.  Combining the free trial and special discount gives you an opportunity to test the service and still save 20% off unlimited Usenet access for life!  We think the new free trial + special will do quite well and look forward to your feedback.  Please send comments to feedback (at) newsgroupreviews.com.

Newshosting Offers NH Titan Plan : Unlimited 1.5 Mbps

April 2, 2010 by

The team over at Newshosting just added a new tool to their arsenal.  The NH Titan plan.  The new account offers unlimited Usenet access at 1.5 Mbps, 576 days of binary retention and up to 6 connections for $12.95 a month.

Let’s compare the NH Titan plan to another speed-capped offering:

Newshoting NH Titan
– Monthly cost: $12.95-$14.95
– 576 days binary retention
– unlimited Usenet access
– 1.5 Mbps speed cap
– up to 6 connections
– SSL available for $2 a month

Binverse Galaxy
– Monthly cost: $13.99
– 500 days binary retention
– 30 GB unlimited speed
– unlimited 1 Mbps speed cap
– up to 12 connections
– SSL included

Each plan has some advantages over the other.  For the NH Titan account we like that the capped speed is higher – 1.5 mbps vs. 1 mbps.  However, in comparing the NH Titan account to the current Newshosting special (NHXL Powerpack for $15.95 a month) we would pay the extra couple dollars and go with NHXL which includes unlimited speed, up to 60 connections and free SSL encryption.

If you would like to try the new NH Titan account Newshosting is offering a 14 day free trial.  To learn more about the service read our Newshosting review.

Newshosting Earns a 2010 NGR Editors Choice Award

January 14, 2010 by

Congratulations to Newshosting who recently received a 2010 NGR Editors Choice Award.  These awards are given in recognition of the best Usenet providers based on factors including service level, performance, and value.  The providers bearing this title are thoroughly tested and evaluated by the NGR editors.
Newshosting has been offering premium Usenet services for quite some time but recently they have taken several leaps forward.  Starting with a major retention upgrade.  Followed by a new, easy to use site design for Newshosting.com and series of video tutorials.  Then came the holiday discounts and ongoing special offers.  All of which made for an easy decision to name Newshosting a 2010 NGR Editors’ Choice Award winner.  Newshosting joins Giganews, Binverse, Astraweb and Newsdemon as this year’s Editors Choice selections.

Let’s take a closer look at some of the features and offers that lead Newshosting to our short list of the best Usenet services:

500+ Days of Binary Retention
– Newshosting underwent a major retention upgrade is 2009 and the results are telling.  They are now at nearly 500 days of binary retention and continuing to grow daily.

New Website Launch + Usenet Video Tutorials

– In November they launched a new website design.  Not just a flashy new site design. Newshosting also added a series of Usenet video tutorials helping users setup newsreader clients, search, download and post to newsgroups.

Newshosting Free Trial
– Along with the new site design came a 14 day, 10 GB free Usenet trial for all new customers.  A great opportunity to try the premium service free of charge.

NGR Exclusive 25% Discount
– A couple months ago we posted an exclusive 25% Newshosting discount.  The special continues to be active and we look forward to bringing NGR visitors future offers.

Newshosting Unlimited Access – $7.90/mo.
– From a pricing perspective the biggest change Newshosting has made to date is their current special – 24 months of unlimited Usenet access for $7.90 a month. That’s over 60% off the normal $19.99/mo. retail price.

Newshosting didn’t stop there either.  They increased connections to 60 last year.  Making it insanely fast for those with enough bandwidth to use all 60 connections.  They also give customers extra privacy and security through free SSL encryption.

Newshosting has put a lot of effort into continued improvements and the results show positively in both service level and pricing.  We look forward to future Newshoting updates and offerings.  It should be a fun 2010!
