Location of webserver

[Jessie]

I was recently looking at some web hosting solutions and some of the providers offered various hosting locations e.g. US or UK based servers.

Does it really make a difference from the performance point of view. Lets say that I am expecting most of the traffic coming from continental Europe?

Would the fact that the servers are based in UK make bigger difference if the traffic was coming from the UK.

The location of web hosting is indeed very important as this determines your success on the internet. It's said that you should have the server located in the same country you are targeting for business as this offers better SEO results. Now each person hosting a website looks to get better SEO results and better SEO servers, so you should be very careful while choosing the server location for hosting your website. So if you have your targeted customers of UK, so you should look for a UK based hosting provider.

I have website targeting to US citizens. I still prefer using UK based servers. Though UK servers are expensive compared to US servers but the US servers are mostly full of spammers and the IPs are blacklisted quite frequently.

I am located in Singapore and I don't have a particular targeted audience at which I am looking right now. So will a UK hosting provider server my needs or do I need to look at something else ?
