Paid hosting and SEO benefits

I want to know if upgrading my hosting to a paid service would help it to rank better in Google and grow faster, or there is no difference.

Let me ask you: if you are searching for something online, do you care where it’s hosted? Do you look up the IP address it’s hosted and use that to determine whether the information shown there is useful?

Because I don’t, and I think very few people do. Rankings are gained by having a fast and user friendly site with relevant, high quality content.

And then remember that search engine companies have been working for decades to provide people with the search results they are looking for. So if there are any characteristics you don’t care about when searching the web, or that don’t realistically help search engines to determine whether the content is relevant, then it’s safe to assume that search engines don’t care either.

Please don’t let people scam you with “SEO optimized hosting”. That’s not how SEO works.
