We present a best-fit analysis on the holographic dark energy model characterized by the conformal-age-like length. Based on the Union2 compilation of 557 supernova Ia data, the baryon acoustic oscillation results from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release 7, the cosmic microwave background radiation data from the 7-yr Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe and the Hubble constant measurement from the Wide Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope, we show that the model gives the minimal $\chi^2_{min}=549.428$, which is comparable to $\chi^2_{\Lambda {\rm CDM}}=546.478$ for the $\Lambda$CDM model. The single parameter $d$ concerned in the model is found to be $d=0.235^{+0.005}_{-0.005} ^{+0.008}_{-0.009}$ at 1 $\sigma$ and 2 $\sigma$ confidence levels. The resulting constraints on the present fractional energy density of matter and the equation of state are $\Omega_{m}=0.278^{+0.017}_{-0.016} ^{+0.028}_{-0.026}$ and $w_{de}=-1.252^{+0.025}_{-0.025} ^{+0.042}_{-0.041}$ respectively. The model leads to a slightly larger fraction of matter comparing to the $\Lambda$CDM model. We also provide a systematic analysis on the cosmic evolutions of the fractional energy density of dark energy, the equation of state of dark energy, the deceleration parameter and the statefinder. It is noticed that the equation of state crosses from $w_{de}>-1$ to $w_{de}<-1$, the universe transits from decelerated expansion ($q>0$) to accelerated expansion ($q<0$) recently, and the statefinder may serve as a sensitive diagnostic to distinguish the CHDE model with the $\Lambda$CDM model.
