Or have good things to say? I'm looking for new hosts and wondering about using a US supplier. In this instance I'm looking at windows stuff. _____________________________ it is natural for people not to see one's own faults, and to exaggerate other people's faults and failings.

As I undertand it, you're better off from an SE angle hosting US domains on US servers and UK domains on UK. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.

All are with UK hosts, but of the two hosts I'm using at the moment, the ones with the host whose servers are in the US do seem slower to load than my others that are with a UK host with UK servers, particularly where loading graphics is concerned. Not sure if it's the server locations though or just different server specs. _____________________________ ~~ "A cruel god ain't no god at all" ~~ ~~ Erase hate. Practice love. ~~ (in reply to jaybee)
