Hey everyone,
I've been away from SEO for a while and my site has doing just fine with very little work for more than a year. Before you say it: yeah, I'm lazy! Following a spate of DDOS attacks recently, I started looking for a more reliable host, and noticed that most appear to be based in the US.
As my site is a .com service provider targeting customers in London in the United Kingdom, I don't know if US Hosting will be detrimental vis-a-vis the Google SERPs.
Although the site is now running just fine with Staminus, a hosting company in California, I'm starting to think I should move it back to a UK-based host. What do you guys think?
As Google no longer offer a 'pages from the UK' option, does the physical location of a host still largely determine the geolocalisation of results?
Finally, although I prefer the site to target as wide an audience as possible, would you guys recommend I set Webmaster Tools to 'UK'?
Thank you!
