As mentioned earlier, page load speed is the only thing that I can think of. Google has done tests that show if a website takes just a few seconds longer to load than average, the probability of that person leaving the website and going elsewhere increases quite heavily. Users hate slow websites, so any host that gives you a boost in that regard is doing a solid.
Most hosting companies are identical to one another. The only difference is how overcrowded their servers are and how much bandwidth you can squeeze through for users.
So no direct influence, but definitely something to consider moving if your site takes a long time to load.
