Choice of US datacenter vs UK datacenter?

fishmonk · Aug 1, 2017

Hi, everyone. I would like to know the differences between US and UK datacenters.
This could be on various aspects (ping, customer service, pricing etc.)
Is it okay to host an Asian website on these data centers ?

The major difference is the geographical location and possibly client base but that might depend more to whom they advertise to. Custmer service and pricing will vary depending on the provider not so much on the location. There shouldn't be any issues hosting an asian website with providers within the US or UK.

UK is much closer to the Asia region so you will get better latency. In terms of service pricing etc things would be around the same but UK could be cheaper all depends on the exchange rate from your currency.

always try and go for a server closet to your target market. So if you clients are in the UK then i would suggest getting UK web hosting. The location doesnt really matter as much any more for SEO which i know is debatable but just go where your target market is

I wouldnt say UK servers would have better ping to Asia, it all depends on the routing it uses. You should google up their routing of each datacenter to be sure

OVH now offer UK location in their new datacenter, however many clients prefer to use USA LA to target the Asia market. Good luck!
