30. How fast is your hosting company on page loads? discuss.
Fast, Fast, Damn Fast!!!
However, that is not really a fair question for any web host. Page load speeds are affected by a lot of factors way outside of my control. For example, there are a lot of hops along the route from my server to your computer and everyone of these hops can have a delay. Obviously the further away from the server you are, the more likely there is a chance of hitting a delay.
Another issue affecting page load speeds is the content of the page. If there are a lot of jpeg images, flash graphics or any other heavy duty graphics, it will be slower loading.
This is why the first thing you should do before calling any hosts support line about a slow server is checking a traceroute for yourself.
