Karlsruhe – netcup (www.netcup.de) once again wins the online portal HOSTtest’s reader poll to be named Web Host of the Year 2018. This year, the company not only managed to win in the most highly contested category, Webhosting, but also in the two categories VServer and Managed Server. netcup also ranked second in the Domains category. In the audience survey conducted by HOSTtest, the Karlsruhe-based web host thus remains ahead of such industry giants as 1&1 in terms of customer popularity.

This year, voting for web hosts took place for the fourth time in a row. HOSTtest had called upon its readers to vote in seven categories, and nearly 12,000 votes were cast.

„This outstanding repeat result in HOSTtest’s industry litmus test fills us with enormous pride“, Felix Preuß, Managing Director of netcup GmbH, was pleased to report. „We are happy and grateful that so many of our customers place their trust in us. The result serves to confirm our view that big does not automatically mean good. We consciously aim to be different from the industry giants, using our service and a very good price-performance ratio to convince the market of such“.

The company’s success is further underlined by other awards won this year: In May 2018, netcup was awarded Platinum at the Hosting Awards in the VPS category. Test results from trade journals also rated netcup’s service and performance as „very good“. In August of this year, netcup had reviewed its web hosting offerings and expanded the storage space for website hosting. For example, netcup is the first web hosting provider to offer its customers 1000 GB of SSD storage space in a redundant cloud infrastructure for less than 10 euro per month.
