Hello Guys,
I’m on my way in choosing the ideal web hosting for my client. Their target audience will be in Asia (Malaysia & Singapore) mainly.
The req is simple, over 100mb diskspace is good, speed is the most important factor. And we’ll be expecting averagely 100 visitors per-day.
So when the target audience is in Asia, does it mean if I get a hosting company from Asia, It’ll be better? in terms of speed etc.
How do you check for a hosting company server speed?
I’ve been to
http://www.hostpulse.com/hosting/networktools/pingresult.asp
But few of my friend is saying it ain’t accurate.
the other thing is i went to the command prompt and type ping www.whatever.com and check the average ms. I don’t think its accurate.
I ping a hosting company from malaysia and i got 87ms , then i ping a crappy hosting company also from malaysia and i got 37 ms.
After few hours i try again, the ms went totally different again. And i’m confused 
I hope you guys can guide me on choosing the ideal hosting =D
