Good European Web hosting

by Vincent Sparreboom
4 replies
As the title says I'm looking for a good European web hosting service (but they can be based world wide). I need it to host Spanish, German, French etc. domains.

The hosting service needs to be similar to Godaddy and Bluehost; cheap and unlimited domains. I don't need much bandwith.

Do you have any suggestions??

Thanks Guys

Vincent

    Vincent,

    I see you are also from the Netherlands. Don't you expect any SEO issues when the server is based in ....France and you host a Spanish website?

    Like you I am also looking for the same service. But I want a service wich is based in NL as I will only host dutch websites

      Afaik, if you're using a ccTLD (like .fr or .nl), Google will always associate it with the relevant country, regardless of where it is hosted.

      And, if you're not using a ccTLD, you can specify a geographical target for your domin in the "Webmaster Tools" section of your Google account which, according to Google, helps determine how your site appears in country-specific search results. I use it for .com domains in Ireland quite a bit, even though all my sites are hosted in California, Texas, and Germany.

    @Thomas Thank you, it looks interesting but I can't host .de, .fr etc. domains there.

    @patje72, Thomas is right. We host Dutch .com sites in the states and english .com sites targeted for the US in the Netherlands. It doesn't matter where you host. The site language is important and if you want to target a specific location you can indeed use webmaster tools to asign a location.
