Ip Location

My dedicated server is in Tampa Florida, but the IP address is listed as being in the UK, where the home office is for the hosting company.

Does that have any bearing on search results?

If your IP is an UK IP then your server is in UK and not Tampa Florida.

It doesn't matter seo-wise where the hosting server is located.

may i ask if IP location affects your rankings in SE's?

I think IP Location does effect your SERP rankings...
Your IP location also serve as your Websites Geographic Location...
Ex. Search results in UK displays different results in US using the same keywords...

I have to disagree. Or perhaps you are referring to the IP of the searcher?

Also, let's not confuse IPs with TLDs.

I've noticed that the IP of the Searcher and the IP of websites go hand to hand during Geographic Searches...
People searching from UK gets results from most sites located in UK as well...
