Website extremely slow/doesn't load in China

Posted on June 6, 2014

My website (1gb) runs amazingly well in USA and Europe. I’ve currently in China and I noticed that either my website doesn’t load at all or is extremely slow. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Do I need to set up a server physically located in China?

I’m in US (ny2 region). Would a Singapore droplet really make a difference? <br> <br>What would the caching system be?
