Quicker loading of the website, better Google position

The location of the server hosting your website does not seem to affect directly its position within the Google search results. For SEO purposes ("Search Engine Optimization") are much more important the domain name extension (or "ccTLD") and the country you choose in Search Console.

But the location of the website hosting indirectly influences the Google position. If most of the visitors are from Europe, and the web hosting of the website is performed in our Amsterdam location it means the website will load quickly. And we know that the high loading speed of the website is one of the criteria used by Google for the result ordering.

Consequently, the choice of the website's hosting location is also part of your online marketing strategy.

Our web hosting packages start from 4 € and they provide an excellent loading speed for the visitors from Europe.
