how do you fix lag?

sjoerdtim has stated what causes lag but has not said how we can fix the lag. i played on siege today and had lag spikes not fps spikes but lag spikes where everyone would freeze and i would be able to walk around then be teleported back to where i was when everyone froze for about 10 seconds. but other people were not getting them because after i came out of it when it happend in front of a enemy is after that 10 seconds i instantly died. it happens atleast once every 10 minutes most the time 2-5 can somebody tell me how i can fix this. its not my computer because other servers with 50+ players by each other does not lag. i am guessing its my ping to the UK does anyone know how to speed your ping up to and from the UK ? because its really frustrating to be standing inside a enemy running away and still unable to hit him. or suddenly die when i have no idea what in the world hit me.

i have optifine. it only reduces fps lag not ping lag those are 2 very diffrent things
i get a good amount of fps. "the people who copied siege" is hosted in the UK and is less laggy that siege. it has 30 MS less ping that siege but 30 ms is not enough to cause the lag i am getting.
 
Actually, I have those moments too. Everyone stops for around 5 seconds, and then it works fine.


But the cause may be the cloudy weather and storms in the Netherlands.
 
My computer sucks, and I get lag for 15 seconds when I spawn for some reason. But my connection is also bad, but I got used to it. I use optifine also, you are not the only one with lag :P
