Fernando C from Spain asks:

We are a pretty big site. We are changing our hosting company in the next few weeks (same country). Should we be scared from an SEO perspective?


No, says Matt Cutts, head of spam at Google. Just make sure that when you switch your website between hosts, that you keep the files on the old server for atleast 24 hours (due to IP caching issues).

Also make sure that your website is hosted by a host in the country that is your main target market! So if you mainly sell in the US, host your site with a US based hosting company.
Always here when you need me. I am the forum administrator and a web designer for Online Design Bureau.
