Google Whois my site?

4 replies
I had a person come trough whois.domaintools.com today, and I allways check them just for curiosity to see from where someone might want to look up my name. And since I dont have my name hidden I do look from time to time.

So today someone came in trought whois and I checked the Ip, and it says google, Wtf? should I expect a slap or any type of rape!?

    They say that's a standard google practice to help identify cross linking sites with a common owner.

    By the way, contrary to what some have advised: though google is a domain registra, my private whois service says registras other than your own can not piece the privacy curtain.

      Well thats exactly what I have, But not cross linked though. I have blogs that point to one business, and only that. No blog to another or business to blog.

      Is that against googles rules? I mean arent you allowed to blog about your own business?

    Why are you trying to hide from Google?

    You want to be firends with Google, and by this I mean keep everything above board and have great content and site structure etc..

    If you have either an analytics or webmasters account, then they already know of your domains.
