    I bought a server from a Netherlands server provider and it semes like a lot of people can't connect to the site due to it being located in the Netherlands. Is there a solution?

    Get the people that can't connect to your server run a trace route from there location:

    Windows:

    1/ Start Menu -> Run
    2/ Type in "cmd"
    3/ Enter
    4/ Then type "tracert domain.com" where domain.com is your site.

    Have them forward the result's to you and then pass this on to your provider, they could be having problems with a certain peering location used by the certain people that can't gain access, is it one area/country??

    Also run a test at http://just-ping.com/ , it will show if there is any network problems from the different countries.
