I want to know why we choose wshttp binding instead of basichttp, nettcp and other.
This was asked in one of my interview on wcf.

WsHttp supports more features and security options than BasicHttp that is why it is used.

WsHttp binding supports following

1. SOAP 1.2
2. Ws Security - the data is sent after encrypting (no plain text transfer)
3. It has following security options - None, Transport, Message, Transport with message credentials
4. Reliable messaging

The main benefit is that security that reliable communication.

Thanks
