: Can having domain reg. + hosting with the same company make for a faster loading website? Curious to know if there is / can be any slowdown from having one's domain name registered with one

@Murphy175

No, domain and hosting need not to be from same company and there is no connection of speed of website with domain company. Speed does depend on hosting company, DNS resolution, server specs, bandwidth, no. of hits, page size, page code and various other factors but not domain registrar.

Speed is totally diff. aspect and mechanism. Basically speed is depends on following :

1 - How you construct your website
2 - What web standard you follow
3 - your site resource loading priority
4 - 3rd party resource use
5 - Standard and optimized code

There are other lot of things which are related with loading speed.

so in concern of your question , My answer is option "No at all"

Hope our help removed your big misunderstanding of domain + hosting about speed.

It won't be any faster if the two are served by the same company. There are no opportunity for synergies between the domain registration, DNS, and web services. They don't use the same protocols, they don't use the same ports, they don't use the same types of servers. There isn't going to be an opportunity for any type of caching or reuse between the two.

I use separate companies for:


DNS Registration
DNS hosting
Web services
Email hosting


You can choose each for its own merits (speed, price, reliability, service) without effecting the speeds of the others.

You may find that there are bundles that give you good deals when you use two or more of those services from the same company, but you won't find any speed advantages.
