Hosting in Canada

Canada is a leader in telecommunication, internet technologies and data center infrastructure such as power and cooling. Its state of the art internet backbones are highly reliable and of the highest performance. Our Toronto Data Center provides better connectivity and is in closer proximity to major US cities than other hosting centers located throughout the United States.

Hosting in Canada provides the benefit of stricter privacy laws. Canadian Privacy Laws are renowned as being on par with the European Union. All of Clarity Web Hosting servers are in Canada and are NOT subject to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) or Patriot Act. Canadian or European companies may violate privacy laws if decisions are made to host in the United States.

Canadian organizations can take advantage of the fact that major search engines such as Google, MSN, and Yahoo all give Canadians different search options than Americans when searching the web. Each gives some sort of preference or boost to sites deemed to be Canadian within their Canadian search results. Search engines do look for Canadian based IP addresses. This means that Canadian companies need to be diligent about ensuring that they appear in the search results of the most used engines in their home country.
