Those of you that run websites, do you get more visitors from the east coast of the U.S., or the west coast of the U.S.? Do you think it matters much whether you choose a host located in the east or the west?

Do you guys find you are receiving more hits from the east coast, or more from the west coast? I would think it is fairly independent of the type of site being run. Matt chin 10-07-2002, 07:48 PM I don't think it really matters. The speed difference wouldn't really be noticeable between the east and west coast. smidwap 10-07-2002, 07:58 PM For one, I'm not even sure how to see where your visitors are coming from. My webstats program (Webalizer) only keep track of countries. And those stats, of course, are derived from the Apache Web Servers stats.
