WHEN you live in a country where the internet connection is as slow as traffic during rush hour, we don’t blame you if you feel like migrating to a place where you can get reliable speeds — especially when your productivity depends on it.

Looking at the latest global index of Ookla, the company behind the Speedtest.net web service, makes us want to do just that. If you are looking for a reliable broadband provider, it may be worth checking out Click Broadband for more information. The use of the internet is not just necessary at home, but in the workplace to. When it is down for even ten minutes, it can decrease productivity amongst staff. This is why doing some research into finding a business internet solution can make such a difference when it comes to the speed and getting work done to the best of your ability.

And European countries are winning it in both hands down. Norway, the Netherlands, Hungary, Malta, Belgium, and Iceland made it to the top 10 list for mobile internet. For fixed broadband, we’re talking about Iceland, Romania, Switzerland, Sweden, and Lithuania.

But Asia didn’t do badly. For mobile, Singapore, United Arab Emirates, and South Korea made the continent proud. Plus, Singapore and South Korea didn’t disappoint once again for fixed broadband. Singapore is an attractive place to live for those whose lives are heavily intermingled with technology. This ultramodern city has some great offerings for those looking to make the move; check out Piermont Grand Pricing. The two were joined by Hong Kong and Macau.
