Is good webhosting and CCL Certificate, improve website Ranking?
-
I am wondering if good web hosting and CCL certificate help website to rank? any Idea!
-
We currently use godaddy hosting and it is pretty awful. Does anyone have a recommendation for a very fast web hosting service?
-
Speed of load and downtime as mentioned above can seriously damage your ranking. We moved host a number of years ago and we have never looked back.
We moved to one of the most expensive hosts but the best up-time and their data centre isn't on a flood plain!!
Their Internet connections are fast and also duplicated to ensure high up-time. Along with power and sites.

Not sure about CCL but good web hosting defiantly impact the SERP rankings. The problem with bad web hosting is the downtime and if Google crawl your website in the downtime, you probably will witness a dip in rankings.
Hope this helps!

I cant answer the about CCL certificate, but web hosting can potentially affect google rankings in the sense of load time.
If your hosting is on poor servers, throtle band width Google does take this into account when ranking websites, as slow websites lead to poor user experience and they want happy user experience.
Website load time is a higher ranking factor on mobile websites, so the slower to load has the potential to rank lower.

There are many things you can do on the page to improve load time (and there are many articles out there), but hosting can play a part.
So in answer to your question a good hosting company can help improve your rankings. CCL certificate I don't know enough about to give you an answer - so I am hoping somebody else can answer that part for you.

To merge website and blog?
I was hoping to get a bit of advice if possible. Our website has a domain authority of 25. Our blog, on a separate platform has a domain authority of 73. In essence, we were wondering if we should move all the content from our blog to our website and then set up redirects? What's stopped us so far is the fear that the links from the blog, with the higher domain authority, are having a positive effect on the website, and if we were to move the content we'd lose the value of those backlinks. So I was wondering if you could possibly advise me on the matter? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
