Hello,

We run a few servers at IndexCore in the United Kingdom, but its not always you will make a profit as the UK people look at the US hosting companies that offer their services cheaper then UK hosts. Tax's if you are in the UK are 14.7% so you will have to pay them if you operate in the UK, something to keep in mind.

Having said this if you find a company who is willing to work with you in supporting your expansion that would take much administration off your back as their is lots and lots of paper work when dealing with the UK tax's and things of this nature.

We at IndexCore would be intrested in forming a possible partnership to help you with this, we are currently looking for partners to offer Gaming servers so we could work with you on this if you are intrested please contact myself at: dmotova {@} indexcore.com.

Best Regards,
Denis
