Hi..

Pardon me for being new to internet hosting world .

i wonder if it is an advantage to use local server to host our website rather than outside india. it is rather common sense on my part.

because my office has wide contact in asia and europe we rely on email communications. is it an
advantage to use non-local server to host web/email hosting when my office is in india ?

Or is it better to go for company which have local and non-local server to host ?
Please advise. an early reply is really appreciated .

warm regards.

1. possible better rankings in the search engines
2. marginally faster connection (most users won't notice it in normal web browsing conditions)

I don't know what the prices for India based hosting. It might be that when it comes to hosting other countries have a more competitive pricing. The US is known for a good mix of quality and price.

Hello,
local webservers have faster ping times, however in most instances it's barely noticeable. Most important is whether the webserver is overloaded or connection oversold. You can get a local webserver but if it's over-worked to it's limits it will still get slowed. Best of Luck.

It depends on your need actually. If you are in contact more often with overseas people, then, it's best if you use non-local servers. It might have faster connection.
