SEO
and Hosting Location
In general, the
closer the web servers are (geographically) to the site visitors, the quicker
the pages will load because the greater distance between the web servers and the
site visitors often results in more nodes for data to pass through.
With that being
said, if your website mainly targets North American users, it is a good idea to
find a web hosting company located in either USA or Canada. Also, register a
specific domain extension (ie. .us for USA, .ca for Canada) so that search
engines can rank your website in a better position based on your geographical
setting. |
