is pakgamers hosted on pakistani servers ?

[Chandoo]

just wondering

we need to be on this list

http://www.alexa.com/site/ds/top_sites?cc=PK&ts_mode=country&lang=none

 

[MindFreak]

nope, i think its on a foreign server, try pinging pakgamers.com.

I thought it was on a Japanese server?

 

[SpEeDyZ]

yes agreed it is on a foreign server

But that doesn't mean it can't be on that list. Hah, Yahoo on number 1. I would of expected Google to be there!

Server location doesn't matter, Alexa gets the sites data from "Open Directory Project" i-e Dmoz.org. PakGamers was listed there before the crash and it was on the Alexa as well but I think due to a 15-20 days of inactivity Dmoz.org remove the site from the list, I will add it again.

And just for additional information there is "NO PAKISTANI" server exist other the ISPs one, but simply pakistan don't have the infrastructure for creating Servers Data Centers.

Lastly, did you notice even in the Pakistan Top Sites lists there are lots of indian and US based sites are listed (even the adults/porn ones) sites like pakwheels with 40K+ members are at the bottom so that explain pretty much the average pakistani interest

PS: PakGamers is hosted on a US-Based server which is located in colorado, denver.
