Getting Links from Same IP

[ddwebguru]

If I can manage to get links from different websites which are listed on the same domain, will it not help me to increase the ranking of my website? Does Google give less importance to them? Please suggest me.

It really shouldn't have a negative effect if you don't go wild with oodles of websites on the same IP all pointing at each other.

To give you a real world example, search for handbags in google uk & you'll see ukhandbags at no1.

Go to yahoo site search & search for the backlinks to ukhandbags, and then select the "not from this domain" option.

You'll see thousands of links from salon-selective.

The 2 sites are owned by the same person/group, and they are both on the same IP.

Hasn't done either site any harm whatsoever.

Here is a response I sent a client yesterday..

There is some suggestion that Google will group websites together if they are on the same IP address. Therefore any links from website to website on the same IP address are reduced in weighting.

Google did this because spammers were creating thousands on websites to create a link farm (help with rankings), but all the websites were based on the same IP address, so Google spotted what they were doing.

It all depends on what the individual SEO strategy is for the websites. If they are linking from one website to another website heavily (spammy) then it might be advisable to have different class C ip addresses’.

If the they are only linking once or twice between websites then it really doesn’t make any difference to Google. Google has more advance techniques for combating spam these days now, so I think different IP’s are a thing of the past.

IP address location does make an impact, it’s always best to host your websites in the countries you are targeting.

It's the same kind of idea as this post

It won't be a problem unless you are being abusive - if you are talking about <10 I'd say you'll be fine

I am not talking about same looking website but about hosting websites from the same IP address. Now I am using bulk Ip checkers for opting for getting links from other websites so that I can avoid any mishap.

different websites which are listed on the same domain

I assumed you meant a subdomain

You want to know if lots of links from the same IP address will give you the same benefit as lots of links from different IP addresses?

Short answer = no

And if you are found to be the owner (whois) of said domains trying to manipulate the system, your site will suffer the consequences if found out

I don't think he'll suffer any consequences at all.

Most hosting companies have thousands of domains all hosted on the same IP, you could have hundreds of links from them & google wouldn't bat an eyelid.

I am concerned about the consequences I am concerned about its probable benefits. I am not sure whether getting links from same website have any significance or not.
