vps or similar option with lowest possible ping to website
in need of as low as possible ping / latency to a website through a vps / dedicated server. what's the best approach to this when I don't know the exact serverlocation of the website? been trying several different options but the result vary a lot even when it's the same geographic location. currently have at best around 10 ping but looking for <5
website is csgoroll.com, (counter strike marketplace / gamblingsite)
currently getting around 10 ping VPS in paris, london and amsterdam

They use cloudflare so good luck with ping

Ping avg 2.4 ms https://snipboard.io/7Pcgb2.jpg .. you can place an order for the same VPS at https://www.gossdhosting.com/vps-hosting/
use cloudflare warp

@JabJab yeah im aware, only way to improve ping then is to just try different locations and hope for the best?

DM me if you need any custom specs if they are not listed on our website.
Do a quick read how Cloudflare works - you ping local CF nodes/POPs, it won't change anything related to the 'real' csgoroll servers.
You would need to know the real location of the server - find a dynamic generated request/part of page that have constant generation time and query that one from a lot of locations - if (for example) login page takes 150+ ms to 'download' from everywhere in Europe and like 30-150 ms from everywhere in USA you can assume that real server is somewhere in USA.
But that must be something dynamic (so CF need to connect to real server) and simple to generate (so the generation time in backend won't play a part).
Will look into this! Also, when it comes to load time / load speed after pressing a certain future. How would one go about making that faster as a visitor on the site? How much does it depend on location, specs, other stuff? Basically is there anything I can do to make a certain feature load faster than it currently does for me?
You're building some sort of bot I assume. Things will obviously load quicker if you're closer to the origin but considering that's behind a reverse proxy, it's not easy or impossible to determine where that is.
Then the rest is down to how quick a page can be rendered and whether static assets are cached on the client side. So you'll want to make sure you're caching JS, CSS etc to ensure not taking a performance hit loading it every time. This is assuming you're building a bot using a headless browser.
The most optimal way to build a bot around this is to figure out what calls the browser is making to the backend and then make http requests direct to their api, without the use of a browser. I believe things like sneaker bots will do this. This may not be easy, you may need to obtain a cookie via a browser first etc.
What is the use-case? Is this for a legitimate purpose?
I'm curious what the need is and if it actually matters..
Pretty much what bgerard said above, my ambition is to get the fastest bot on the site to consistently snipe good deals on counter strike skins, it's a very competitive market so every little edge matters. All help / advice is much appreciated
