Webhost with 10+ IP's?

quickhousesale · Feb 13, 2013

Hi

Could anybody recommend a web-host who has an ability to provide 10 or class-c ip's at a reasonable cost?

Many Thanks

Given the shortage of IP's, you'll find difficulty justifying 10 IP's these days. Best bet may be to get 10 small hosting accounts over a number of providers, this will give you truly diverse IP ranges for SEO purposes.

This is what you need to do. IPv4 is exhausted and any web host handing out IPs like this is rather irresponsible.

Further, do you really want low quality / poor trust IPs that "SEO hosts" offer? After all the previous clients (or if its different shared C classes - current clients) have done all the black hat link building to them?

If you want separation between sites, spread your sites between a few different hosts and/or server locations.

The problem with having all the IP's "owned" by the same provider is that it would be quite easy for a search engine algorithm to check the owner of the IP block and then link the addresses, by distributing over multiple providers makes it far more difficult (not impossible) to link these site. For a few sites it is not so much of an issue, with a larger number of sites you can easily stand out as a link farm.

I agree. And do you not think Google has already pegged the SEO hosts IP ranges and listed them as more suspicious or less trustworthy?

I often advise our clients that do wish to separate their sites to spread them between our US and UK entities. Different legal entities, different IP ownership, different server locale.
