Is Google still punishing for domains on same IP?

One of my sites got hit pretty bad by the last few updates (Panda in particular). It's a review site.

I have a new site, that is a few weeks old, and now up to 5 articles, but still getting 0 traffic from google.

The are both hosted on Hostgator on the same private IP.

Should I just abandon the old site? Or you think google is treating them totally independant?

    No, google don't see the ip address to rank a website in my opinion.
    In hostgator shared hosting there are tens of websites with the same IP address even the adult sites will be there on the same IP.

    I actually don't think they ever penalized websites on the same IP

    If they penalize sites they will go by name server Not by IP address, By algorithm NO, but if your site get manually review from Google team then Yes they can take down all sites hosted on same name server ...

    The answer is NO.You will not be punished by Google whether you have same IP or not.IP is not the factor but duplicate content is.

    Matt Cutts said in one of his videos that they don't care much about multiple sites sharing IP addresses if the number is not too big.

    A number he gave in one of his videos was 2000 sites when discussing a particular example that was a problem.

    The precise number of sites/domains on shared IP addresses that actually triggers algorithms or manual reviews is not made public.

    I strongly doubt any number of domains, on 1 IP address, below 100 would cause a problem even if they were all interlinked.

    I've been running up to 20 sites of single servers with interlinking and sequential IP addresses for years and never had a problem - I'd run more on the same server if my dedicated servers could handle the load - doesn't worry me one bit.

      Agreed, IP address only becomes a factor if you truly have LARGE numbers of sites generated from the same IP, AND you are engaging in black hat techniques like crazy. Otherwise, not a big thing. As far as nameservers, your name servers with most hosting outfits are shared by LOTS of sites, so why or how could Google penalize based on nameservers? That makes no sense, folks. 'Tis all.

      Good luck!

    Definitely No. We have hundreds of sites on same IP address and some of them are linked to each other for Cross Selling and no one in our network has ever complain of such thing.
