I'd love to use Umbraco as a service for a client but they have concerns regading the Azure Datacentre being in the Netherlands and the impact this will have on their Google.co.uk page positions.
They had previously noticed a drop in SERP position when the site targeting UK customers was hosted on a server in Madrid and are reluctant to move their hosting outside of the UK again.
Can anyone provide any guidance please? Is Uaas out of the question for this reason?

Thanks Mark
I don't think it should be a problem as long as you set the target in the Google Search console:
Thanks for getting back Alex.
I did some reading and the word on the streets is as you say to use Google Search console to target the country.
Best Mark
