Why server location for webhosting is important?

i have multiple hosting accounts but all in usa , but i live in new zealand and my friends recommend me to choose server location near to me

is it that important ?

 

Let me give the following example: i had a portuguese website hosted in a DE hosting company. Whenever i use to do a search for that particular company, the google result was always the 6 or 7 in google search results, and in many cases the first results was about companies with similar names. After migrate that website to a portuguese hosting company, with a PT IP, that website is n.1 in google. I know this might be because of the fact google is now using a different DC, probably, however this is my own experience and i like to shared with you. I think the website now loads exactly with the same speed. But in many cases you should notice a fast website if you're using a closer DC to your audience.

 

Hello,

It's Important thing, you have to purchase those server location whereas your business exit.
Because due to it, your website traffic increased as well as improve google ranking.

 

I'd draw your attention to services from hostingsource.com and oissite.com.
THE BEST. Absolutely. You can't have more. Excellent customer service, excellent tech quality, excellent uptime. Maybe a bit expensive but, you know, quality has to be paid. A+++

 

Well getting a server near your audience improve User Experience by providing better page loading speed which eventually help to improve online sales in long run. However, I am using cloud woocommerce hosting which consist of multiple machines working as one unit and major advantage of having a cloud hosting is that no matter from where my E commerce store is access it provides the best response time. All the best.

 

It’s not a must to choose a server location that is closer to yours. You can use CloudFlare CDN, which caches your content across a global network, and brings it closer to visitors from every region. I’ve been using SSD web hosting with CDN for a few months and I’ve noticed that my site loads a lot faster than before.

 

Now Location does not matter for web hosting. but if your hosting is nearby to you then you can get below benefits:
1. Shorter page loading duration
2. SEO and higher search engine ranking
3. Higher conversion rate
4. Cheaper to acquire:
