Best data center tips
To choose the most suitable data center for your site, start by identifying where the majority of your users or customers are located. Selecting a data center that’s geographically closest to them helps reduce latency, as data travels a shorter physical distance between their devices and your server. This results in faster load times and a better overall user experience.
You can use tools like Google Analytics to view your visitors’ geographic distribution. The User > User attributes > Overview report provides insights into where your traffic originates, helping you make an informed decision about which data center region will deliver the best performance.
In the following example, you can see that most traffic is from the United States. So, choosing a US Central data center is recommended, as it offers the lowest latency for visitors within the United States.
