The latancy really isn't going to create any problems. Latancy is only
the amount of time that it takes information to go from one location, to
another location. It doesn't actually have much of an effect on how
quickly a web page will load (at least, not that you will see). The
biggest effect on the speed of the website is based on 3 things.
Bandwidth (both yours and the servers as well as any bottlenecks in
between), Server quality (a server is just like any other computer. It
can only process information so fast. The better the computer, the
faster it can push out the information) and traffic (wich will affect
how much the server has to handle, and how much information is going
through the "pipes"). Latancy has a small effect on how quickly your
website loads, but its so minimal that you don't even need to worry
about it in most cases. Now if your having to deal with very high
latancy (500+), then you'll notice a difference. But the difference
your going to see between 57 and 195 isn't enough to even consider a new
host IMO.

Well... I have my flash website hosted outside my country... the ping
average time is 195ms. Another site like mine hosted locally (on my city)
takes an average 57ms to ping. Does the 138ms of difference really makes
difference? Does this justifies changing the host? Do you think I should
search for a "local host" instead of hosting it outside like I´m doing
now?
Please, share your experiences!
