Targeted Audience And Web Hosting

[ad#Google Adsense]
Load speed is one of the factor that Google count from our blog. Fast loading is great and we all want our blog have just few second to completely load so our visitors doesn’t have to wait too long. Blog speed is really matter if your blog is a business blog or you provide services or even selling your product.

Web Hosting is important for our blog. I want to share a story here. I really don’t know about web hosting before all I know is I just have few bucks and I really want to use the cheapest host icon smile Targeted Audience And Web Hosting

I found my hosting service through Google with Web Hosting Directory, on Google search. I prefer to using local web hosting on my country because I think it’s easier, because we speak with the same language, just in case if I have trouble with this hosting matter icon biggrin Targeted Audience And Web Hosting

Every thing is OK until now, but when I read about speed loading time, there something bothering me because I’m using local web hosting and I’m using local server.

I remembered that I have a conversation with a fellow blogger about speed loading time. I asked him about loading time and web hosting. He said that I should choose a server near my target audience. So if I have targeted visitors from USA so I need to using web server in USA.

I think the reason is really make sense and I consider to moving my web server near my targeted visitors if this blog growing and growing big in the future. I hope so and I think that is great. Thanks

  1. I chose a better way as I switch from hosting to VPS. As my targeted audience are from USA, I take USA hosted server, now I have a better speed for my blog. When you have the money, you can afford it.

  2. Your friend was certainly right. You need to have the server of your web host in the same place from where you are targeting visitors from

  4. Do be careful though as a web hosting company in the US doesn’t always mean you’re getting a server in the US. You might be unfortunate and will be sold one of their servers in say Canada for example, if they’ve got a branch there.

    • Agree with you bro, target audience is important but as u said local hosting sometimes have problem with load speed. Thanks.

  6. I think it’s not necessary about the hosting place. The loading time of your blog depends on the capacity of your blog’s homepage.

    Another thing also is on the codes of the theme you used. Some suggested to compress your css files. But wordpress have the plugin for that to make your blog load faster.

  7. Thans to Blogging advice for the plugin hint.

    I agrre with him. In my opinion is the quality and “code lightness” of your pages that impact on their speed rather than the location of the web server.

    • So there are many opinion about the hosting server :D

  8. Unfortunately the free Blogger platform doesn’t offer good optimization options and getting your blog to load fast can prove to be a tricky task. At the moment I’m struggling to optimize some CSS codes, but still the increase is quite insignificant. Your friend’s suggestion definitely seems good, since the distance between the server and your visitors may be a decisive factor for loading times.
