SEO Web Hosting and how its good for you

If there is a phenomenon that is making waves in the web hosting industry in recent times, it would be SEO Web Hosting. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Web Hosting basically encompasses all the strategies involved in ranking well for a particular country-specific version of a popular search engine. Leading search engines especially Google and Yahoo have country-specific versions for several countries across the globe. The mere fact that one's website would necessarily rank better if hosted in the target country has given birth to the new genre - SEO Web Hosting. According to Travis aka "The Farmer":
SEO Web Hosting is the art of hosting your marketing efforts across multiple IP ranges using multiple name servers. By doing so you are ensuring the true success of your online business.
What web hosts do is to provide multiple IP addresses and multiple nameservers spread across different countries such that the website appears to be hosted in these different countries and thus have the chance of ranking better in the respective countries. The specialized SEO packages typically have the following range of specifications: [20 IPs / 10 class C; 2 IPs per Class C; 10 Nameservers] and [120 IPs / 60 class C; 2 IPs per Class C; 60 Nameservers]. Understandably, these SEO Web Hosting packages come at a relatively high cost since immense effort is put into sourcing this different IP ranges. This makes it feasible for companies with deep pockets, who are specifically targetting web users in specific countries. It is important to point out however that aside web hosting that provides local IP addresses, successful search optimization for international markets may require professional translation of web pages, registration of a domain name with a top level domain in the target market. If SEO Web Hosting is not for you and you still want to rank better in specific countries, you want to consider registering your domains under the Country code Top-Level Domains (cc-TLDs) for your target countries. You would then have to put up localized content for maximum effect.

To tell the Search Engines the 'country' your website is most relavent to
a) Have a top-level domain (TLD) for the country like .co.uk
b) Get the tld/ site hosted/ on a nameserver in the targeted country
Also, it would be the possible gain in load time, since it may take less hops (An intermediate connection in a string of connections linking two network devices.) for the browser to get the content.

The hosting can be taken from UK if the business area is only limited to UK (but its not necessary if target is not any specific region).

What's the point of a great website, if no one sees it?

It's not enough to have a great website.. It needs to be properly placed so your potential customers can find it. Studies show that most users don't type directly into a www address, but prefer using a search engine that also lists several pages of other options. That's why your website needs to be right up there on the first two pages of the search engine results in order to get a chance to be seen. Because in the web world, if you're not seen, you're not known.

Your blog looks nice, however it would be better if you can use lighter set of colors as well as a professional design. This will ensure that a lot more readers come to check it out.

Informative post by the way!

One thing people need to keep in mind about "SEO HOSTING" is that you need to ensure they are using different nameservers for each server, to make it look like a different host completely.
