Server Related Question

JohnH · #1 () 03-25-2008, 12:29 PM

So I got an email yesterday from my hosting provider stating that they will be moving there servers to a different datacenter on friday the 28th. As a result all of the sites I have hosted with them will be down for up to 48 hours. My question is will this effect me in the SE's in any way if the datacenter changes and/or my site is down for up to 48 hours?

Thanks

I wouldn't imagine being down for 48 hours would have an effect. Google is more than likely aware that these things happen, so I wouldnt imagine they would want to penalize a site for something that is out of their hands.

Doubt the data centre thing would make a difference either, but I'm no SEO expert though.
