Why a website opens from some countries and does not open from others

Two users at laptops: on the left, the person successfully opens a site with a green check mark and a globe, on the right, the user sees an access error with a red background, a prohibition icon, and a warning about no connection.
The availability of web resources depends not only on the site, but also on the user’s geography and network restrictions.

The internet is often perceived as a global space without borders, where any website is accessible from anywhere in the world. In practice, things work differently. A user may open a website without any issues from Ukraine, Poland, or Germany, but receive an error or no access at all from another country. For many people this seems strange or even alarming, although in most cases the reason lies not in the website itself, but in how internet infrastructure and servers are built and operated.

Server Location – How Geography Affects Your Website’s Speed

When choosing hosting for your website, most people look at specifications like memory size, disk speed, bandwidth, or number of CPU cores. But there’s another crucial factor — the physical location of the server. This often determines how quickly your website loads for visitors from different countries.
