Features and Ease of Use
NewHOST can address your server performance needs with their high-grade hardware and fast worldwide network connectivity. Stability and security are built into every hosting package. With their SLA, they take care of any issues on their end, guaranteeing you 99.9% uptime and anti-DDoS attack protection. Some of their key hosting features and tools include:
- cPanel
- Softaculous app installer
- Free website migration service
- Regular backups, stored for up to ten days
- PHP Selector 5.2 to 7.x
- DNS management
- Unlimited subdomains

Their shared hosting services are their most popular. The Start Plan — their entry-level plan — comes with one dedicated IP address, 2GB SSD storage, one MySQL database, and a single mailbox. This plan is suitable for individuals hosting a website with fewer than 10,000 visitors.
Their Advanced Plan is more suited for hosting forums, business websites, or community websites: with it, you get 5GB SSD storage, five mailboxes, and five databases. It can easily handle up to 30,000 visitors per month. Their Complete Plan, on the other hand, is great for any business website or e-store and can handle up to 60,000 visitors every month. All their shared hosting plans are on a cloud infrastructure, which means better reliability and overall uptime compared to those of more standard shared hosting providers.
NewHOST also offers enterprise-grade Intel Xeon dedicated servers with full root access. If you’d rather go for a happy medium between dedicated servers and shared hosting, you’ve also got either OpenVZ or KVM-virtualized virtual servers available. These come with a 100% uptime guarantee and the best possible security.
Pricing and Support
With regards to pricing, I can say NewHOST’s plans are quite affordable. Their starter hosting packages also come with more features than you’d typically get elsewhere at the same prices. Upgrading is easy and allows you to unlock more storage, RAM, and bandwidth for your websites. Though a 19% VAT surcharge is included in their plans, they don’t charge you any setup fees.
NewHOST provides 24/7 technical support to customers. However, this is primarily through email and tickets: their phone support is only available during business hours. Their customer support is effective and friendly, catering to both beginners and experienced webmasters. When I reached out to them, they skillfully guided me through the necessary steps to resolve my issues, and they managed to sort everything out within the hour.
