Rad Web Hosting Expands with New VPS Hosting Services in France

[johny899]

Great news — Rad Web Hosting is now offering VPS hosting in France. They’ve launched servers in a data center in Paris, which means websites and apps will now be able to host closer to their European users. If you’ve ever attempted to serve people in Europe and worried about a slower experience, this is certainly a welcome change.

Why It’s Important​

When your site is hosted a considerable distance away, visitors will feel the slowness. But now, with the servers in France, European Internet users will be able to observe faster load times and a better overall experience. Hosting in the EU also helps with data protections such as GDPR which is important if you are dealing with European customer data.

Let’s just face it — wouldn’t you rather your visitors had faster access rather than watching the pages slowly load?

What Rad's VPS in France Is Built on​

Here are the main features that Rad is promoting with their new VPS hosting:

• SSD Storage for fast, reliable data delivery
• Operating system options (Linux or Windows)
• Flexible scalability for easy resource upgrades
• Full root access for complete control of the server
• 24/7 managed support for help when you need it
• Data compliance under privacy laws due to European location

Additionally, the servers are located in a Tier III+ data center in Paris, which means armed security, back-up generators, and internet connections that are designed to stay up when there are issues. All of that to say: reliable uptime and security.

My Perspective on It​

I am always cautious to become too excited before checking things out myself. So if I were to sign up for this VPS in France, here’s how I would go about it:

• Run a latency test from the different European cities to see if speeds are in fact better
• Host a small website or app and check to see how it performs at traffic
• Submit a support request with a couple of questions to see how quickly they respond
• Examine their uptime promises as well as what they offer or do if they go down

If all four of these items came back positive, then, I think Rad has solid new France servers.

Who Will Benefit Most?​

This is where I see the greatest opportunity:

• Businesses in Europe that require local hosting
• Developers and agencies building for European clients
• Online storefronts selling to European customers
• Anyone who requires data privacy frameworks that comply with EU standards

In Closing​

Rad Web Hosting’s move into France is a smart move. They are providing users in Europe with faster speeds and local compliance, which is expanding your options for hosting.
