Notice the massive drop in load time and this is using a “ premium” host located in Sydney (we won’t name names). This was one of our E-commerce websites before and after switching. Here are some of our test SiteGround Australia results from Sydney and Melbourne. SiteGround’s datacenters are fast and while your Australian based ISP might be slow at least the data is coming in lighting fast via their datacenters. You might think that Internet speed has no relationship to web performance but that isn’t accurate.ĭatacenters send information to visitors so if that datacenter’s Internet is itself slow you're going to get reduced performance all around.Ĭlick here for more about how badly Australian Internet sucks. I apologize if I offend any fellow Aussies that work in the web services industry.Īustralian datacenters use unreliable, cheap and out of date software.Ĭombined with the lack of fiber optics cables providing Internet and you have a recipe for very slow and unreliable Internet.Īustralian datacenters have continuously ranked pretty badly on worldwide tests of Internet speed and website performance. I talked about this in our review of Australian hosts vs overseas datacenters, one of the more common questions we get is why don’t you guys recommend some local hosts and the reasons are pretty simple. You might want to check out our Siteground vs Bluehost comparison for a more detailed insight. Only a couple hosting services can match SiteGround's uptime, Bluehost for example, is one of them. All our data is able to be historically tracked. You can see that with uptime like this having your site go down is basically never an issue.Īnother screenshot showing how our dashboard tracks the uptime of each individual site/host.
This was tested on as you can see from the top right.
Here are some records of our 2017 uptime reports. This is really low considering that Panthur and Melbourne IT had over 173 (yes, you read that correctly) This is pretty good considering there were only 5 outages in the last 24 months. This is tested via their Singapore datacenter.
On average we put SiteGround's uptime at 99.92% in a SiteGround review, which is as you can guess… insanely high.
