I probably won't host in the UK again, based on past experience. I think that we have tried four different UK hosting companies, and they have ranged from poor to appalling. These were the companies that we thought looked reliable at the time. And yes one of them was <snip>, before their reputation spread.

Having found an excellent US host, I can't see myself swapping back any time soon.

The only problem that we encountered relating to the geography of hosting was an old .com site hosted in the US, which has never been identified as a UK specific site. Since that time, we have only ever used .co.uk for UK sites, and we haven't had any problems with geo-filtering.
