Very few people are aware of how the type of hosting can improve SEO ranking. When talking about SEO, what usually comes to mind is backlinks, keyword density, sitemap, url submission, H1 and H2 tags, etc. These factors are known to be used by the search engines in ranking web pages for display in search results. All these factors put together also helo the search engines, especially Google in ranking web pages. This is known as pagerank.
Dedicated server hosting is also one of the factors that can help in SEO. Its indirect impact on SEO can make a lot of difference between being a super affiliate and all other affiliates struggling to make money online.
Dedicated server hosting boosts SEO in the following ways:
1. Dedicated hosting makes your site to have good record in the eyes of the search engines. Most shared hosting comprises thousands of websites of other webmasters. The majority of these people want to make money online at all cost. They use all kinds of scripts and spamming tools in order to gain good search engine ranking. Search engines can easily track the IP hosting the websites can be backlisted for a time. These are things most people don't know. Have you ever wondered why your site just disappeared from the search results? You were gaining top ranking for some days or weeks or one day you just discovered that your site was no where to be found.
2. Dedicated server hosting makes your web page refresh and loading faster. Search engines are changing their algorithms constantly and one of the things taken into consideration is the page loading and refresh. Search engines always want to display the best websites that will improve the experience of internet users. That is how search engines make money. A fast loading web pages is not very good with shared hosting and this affects consideration by the search engines in search results.
3. Shared hosting contain websites that use all kinds of scripts. Most of these scripts consume server resources. For example, a shared hosting with wordpress autoblogs consume server resources that could draw back the functioning of the server. When this happens, most web hosting companies suspend access to the entire websites hosted by the server and when the search engines come visiting to craw the sites, the sites appear as NOT AVAILABLE. When next an internet user makes a search through the search engines, web pages currently available are given priority. Remember, search engines want to show the web pages with the most relevant results and pages that would give users the best experience.
We all say that AUTHORITY SITES are given consideration in the search engines. The issue is that almost all these sites are sitting on dedicated servers. That is one of the reasons why search engines love them because the sites will never fail to display the information needed by visitors. They don't show "SITE NOT AVAILABLE", "BANDWIDTH HAD BEEN REACHED FOR THIS SITE", "PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED", etc.
A dedicated server hosting has its problems as well. Not many people can afford the cost of hosting one or two sites on dedicated servers. Most dedicated server hosting start from $174 per month while shared hosting cost just less than $20 per month. That is the problem with dedicated servers. If you can afford it, it is better to start your online business with a dedicated server and you would discover that SEO is not all about backlinks, keyword density and all other storis being told about website ranking.
