I just read that it is recommended to change your host server that is closest to your visitors, in terms of ranking factors.

One of my blogs that are getting LCP issues is hosted at NameCheap, and most of my visitors are from Germany.

Can anyone recommend a good hosting network that is located in EU/Germany? That also has fast servers for WordPress?
 
If you have a specific market you're targeting, it's best to use a domain & hosting that is local. Those are all local ranking factors that will help you (in addition to on-page factors like address, content relevance, etc.).

You might want to begin with listing your requirements - at minimum the amount of space, bandwidth and any server requirements you need - like PHP/SQL/curl etc.

Otherwise, it's a bit dicey to make a recommendation without knowing what your site uses.

My site is a simple WordPress blog with articles. That's it. Would you have any recommendations in mind?

My site is actually hosted at HostWinds, not NameCheap. Since I was getting the LCP issues, I felt like I should move my host server to where my visitors are from (Germany) instead of a normal business/shared server at HostWinds. Maybe that would help.
