I used to host my SVN repos on my company's EC2 instance, but I think that I should reconsider it and use one of the SVN hosting companies on the internet, that would be safer and I can get rid of some tasks and save some storage space.

What is the best (reliable and affordable) SVN hosting company on the internet?

Unless you are forced to, I strongly recommend that you move to git instead of svn

I have not done any deep analysis, but here is one way to think of it:

If you are doing open source I would suggest you use either github (git) or code.google.com (svn). Github generally has better social features.

If you want private svn hosting, I have been happy with projectlocker.com. They support both git and svn, and have competitive pricing.

I think understanding repository access control systems and how you want to utilize them is one consideration. Due to the nature of open source, there are opportunities to try different SVN companies. Overall, I'd say different SVN hosting companies have their own drawbacks and positive attributes. I would need some more details of how you plan to use SVN hosting.

I agree that Github has better social features than any other open-source svn hosting. It has social networking functionality such as feeds, followers and the network graph. I have use this one when I was still in Magnetic Sponsoring Review Team.
