    If the site loads “fast enough” and is indexable by search engines, you’re good. Generally speaking, the hosting environment plays a very very small role in the SEO scheme. If Google’s able to index something but they choose not to, it means 1 of 2 things 1. It will provide no value to users (low quality / thin content) or 2. You’re not trusted (via of page signals like links, brand, social presence etc) …. For 2. U generally don’t need links just to be indexed, but you need them to rank. My guess is the pages are thin or you have too many pages… many many factors to consider, but another q to ask – what good would being indexed do? It’s generally more important to look at rankings and search volume . For example you could be indexed / ranked #50 which is just about as good as not being indexed at all.. or you could be indexed / ranked #1 for something with 0 search volume (meaningless as well)..

    Anyways after that word vomit.. no hosting doesn’t play a huge role.. content, links, strategy, etc are way more important. And most important – how does that impact your business?
