For services that wish to operate their own local news servers, Newsguy offers commercial newsfeeds. Newsguy is the home of Spam Hippo despamming software, which despams our entire outbound newsfeed before it is sent to your local news servers. The result is a full newsfeed, virtually free of spam, containing (at the time of this writing) an average of 2,000,000 net posts per day. Upon request, we can also forward a small graphic file that you can place on your website to let users know that their newsgroups are supported by Spam Hippo. Newsguy has a very well integrated and balanced composite feed, with a reputation for being extremely complete. Our newsgroup list is updated daily.

The cost for a commercial newsfeed is $1200 per month. The Net.* hierarchy of newsgroups requires extra setup at the customer's site to insure compliance with their "sound site" policy. A full newsfeed requires 20 - 30Mbps of available bandwidth. Newsguy Newsfeeds cannot be propagated outbound to servers or resold. Only newsfeeds back to Newsguy's servers are allowed. As Usenet news is always evolving, Newsguy cannot guarantee the availability of any group(s), and we strongly urge you to review our service policy prior to signing up for our newsfeed. Commercial newsfeeds are billed monthly, or they can be paid for several months in advance. If you should have any questions regarding this aspect of our service, we can be reached through email or by telephone at 512-255-1878.
