mehera it depends on your customer base if you were targeting us clientell then you would use a US server
at the end of the day you should be using cloudflare to speed things up anyway and after its gone through that then its pretty hard for search engines to distinguish where the original server is0 -
It does not matter one bit where you buy your domain from so what do you mean by UK based servers?
I would recommend Namecheap, they are American and you will have to pay in dollars so make sure you have that option in Paypal. I have always found them really easy to use and extremely reliable."Don't blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast. Faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back. Don't look away.

I know that Lighthouse, but no mention was made of hosting and to my mind it has never mattered whether you are hosted in the US or Timbuktu.
You may end up with a small speed increase when using local servers but it is fairly inconsequential; the most important point of this is that they are reliable."Don't blink. Blink and you're dead.
