Have you ever thought about one important question for your vent hosting..... where will it be located? Many hosting companies have a multitude of servers and different locations that could be of use to you. When you sign up to your vent host, make sure that you ask for a specific list of locations if it is not obvious on the host's web site.
The first thing to do is to get a list of the locations of all member of the gaming community this should not be difficult since most forums and communities have a function to ask for location. Make sure to let them know what you need it for if this information is not available.
Once you have the locations of the members in your gaming community look for an area that is centrally or as close to centrally located as possible. You want everyone to be able to access the server and the service with equality. Then look at the locations that are available from the various Vent hosting services you have short listed and find the one that offers service close to that centrally located spot.
Now that you have this centralized locations, hopefully each of your members will have equal access to the server and will experience similar quality. For those of you that have been around for a while, you know that this luxury was almost impossible a few years back.... the good news is that with increases in the number of hosts and internet speed, the situation has greatly improved.
Prior to tremendous increases in speed ofthe internet and the significantly improved availability of servers in Vent hosting companies, you were required to be in the same city as the host to assure a quality connection. Today, you can essentially be located anywhere and get a quality connection. However, the closer you are to the Vent hosting location for all members will still help improve your gaming experience.
By doing this you ensure equality, you ensure that everyone has similar speeds based on speed loss due to the distance between connection points. It is not as big a deal as it used to be but there are cases where it is important to make sure that you have the shortest distance between points. This will ensure that your gaming community has the best that Vent hosting has to offer.
