The last time I checked, there were over 180 data centers, 330 web hosting companies, and over 3,360,000 .CA domains registered in Canada. But what makes .CA the best choice for Canadians? Why is it important to host your website on servers located in Canadian data centers? And how do you determine which registrar and web hosting company to choose as your provider?
For the past 20 years or so, I have been closely following the web hosting industry. During this time, I have built one of the most popular communities, where thousands of web hosting professionals and enthusiasts discuss industry issues and practices, learn from one another, help consumers and offer special deals.
As a Canadian, I am concerned that many people in Canada are unaware of the benefits of choosing a truly Canadian web hosting company that uses servers located in Canadian data centers to host their websites. Most Canadians are mainly exposed to American and foreign companies, as those dominate advertising space, search engine positioning, and affiliate-based recommendation websites.
The purpose of this website is to educate consumers in this country and to bring attention and authority back to Canadian operators.
