Do you know that your web hosting will affect your page rank in search engines? Many of us are into those free hosting. But what might be the impact of that free hosting to your website’s SEO? Of Course we are to optimize our site to earn and to be on top of most search engines. Let’s find out  how can this web hosting affects our page rank.

First thing we must consider with our web hosting is its reliability. When you have a web hosting that has a lousy customer support, that would probably affect your ranking position in search engines. It is because part of the process in taking search engine optimization is basically addressed to web hosting reliability. Page Speed for instance is one of the factor to be considered. If your pages are loaded fast, then your site is considered as friendly  for users by most search engines and are given more value. Consider also the uptime of your website. Your website must be guaranteed 100% uptime from your hosting company. Just imagine it if search engines spiders are about to crawl into the pages of your site but your site is down. That would give big impact to your page rank already.

Thus, it is important to carefully study the quality of the web hosting you want for your website.There are a lot of reliable hosting companies out there that guarantees 99.99% uptime. I am currently hosted in virtualhostdrive.com, it has been 3 years already and since then I haven’t encountered any downtime. That’s the good thing about paid hosting compared to that with the free hosting.
