Do me a favor: How fast is it?
Hi,
my website used to pretty fast to people living in other than North America. But recently, some friends who live in Europe told me it takes them ~30 seconds to access the website.
Can you do me a favor, check how fast is it? http://www.Panda-Greatwall.com (which is hosted by BGFweb.com). If it is confirmed slow, I will consider changing to another hosting company.

Loaded OK from Ukraine (not a fast link, though).
Consider putting up a big file and placing a link here, so that people could test download speeds.First Amendment of a webhost: if you fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

Impressive - this download easily fills out my 10Mbit link. I'm at Savvis, as I said.First Amendment of a webhost: if you fail to prepare, prepare to fail.
