When choosing a VPS service most UK businesses are unaware of the implications of offshore alternatives from US and European providers. To business owners the bottom line often comes down to price and the first result in Google dictating the decision to purchase.
In a recent case study it was revealed that most online UK business owners were rarely aware of the physical location of the server hosting their site and whether that made any difference apart from the billing.
With Google’s recent announcement regarding the importance of performance and page load time to its ranking algorithm there are some compelling reasons for online UK businesses to switch to a UK VPS offering. All VirtuaHost VPS servers are served from powerful host machines hosted in Maidenhead, just outside of London.
With a server located in the UK not only will your customers receive the best performance possible within their geographical location but it has also been shown from Google’s analysis of page load time that this is often a subtle yet very important factor to decisions consumers make when purchasing on the web.
