Hello

Will google penalise a website if it find that 2 websites or more are linking to your website that have the same ip?

Or how about something like this:



will google be able to detect this and thing it is bad?

What about blogspot blogs...can they link together? If a website just has backlinks from other blogspot blogs will it gain pr and good google serps (if the blogspot blogs are good quality)?

Please help

thank you

basically lets says for insatnce you are hosting your website on a third party shared host could be blogspot...could be one another webhost...
I know you have to keep your back links natural.. but by chance someone who is on the same hosting links to you from there website using the same ip as yours will this have any seo benifit?

What if like the diagram above the other persons website isnt linking to your website but to another website that then links to your website?

...this other person website could be actually be me... but the website (good quality unique) and content is totally different except from the niche.

    IP addresses play a role in SEO and it's one of the Google ranking factors. Search engines hate any kind of manipulation to get a website to rank highly throughout unnatural means. If you're linking to your own site over and over again from another site which you own, this appears VERY unnatural as it's likely that the links are all coming from the same or a very similar IP address. It can penalize your ranking.

      HI legoog8,

      IP addresses do not effect SEO.

      Search engines like Google are very good at detecting your web spam, no matter how many different IP addresses you use, and if you are not publishing web spam then there is no reason to be concerned.

        But in Google's eyes this would be spam, it's intended to manipulate rank. By transferring pagerank along a chain before dripping it to the "money site".

        To be honest in 9 cases out of 10 where the term "money site" is used it's going to be some form of rank manipulation technique on the grey to black hat side of things.

          Hi petemcal,

          What?

          How would not using spam "be spam"? I don't quite get the logic behind that assertion.

          Linking to original, quality, relevant content is not web spam, it is what puts the "web" in "webpages", "websites", and the "World Wide Web". It's only when you do it in a way that is not valuable for users that it becomes web spam.

            The free world runs on shared IPs. People just have no clue as to
            what an IP actually is. They just heard something from a guy
            who knows a guy.

            If you do good, you have nothing to worry about. If you do bad,
            different IPs are not going to save a sinking ship.

            Too many people think they can cover stuff up. Why? Why are
            you doing things that need covering up?

            Hey Don, I totally agree with you that if this chain was to occur naturally because of quality content linking to genuine related content you probably wouldn't have much to worry about. I'm sure this type of structure would occur naturally quite often.

            But as I mentioned in my above post the use of the term "money site" puts doubt in my mind as to whether this is an inquiry about the effects of a genuine natural occurrence or a pre-designed rank manipulation technique. More often than not if it's the latter people are looking for shortcuts and so the link chain will not be as natural.

            I also think that spam is a pretty subjective term and it means different things to different people. For example some of the rules that the webspam team at Google have set out technically aren't spam at all. They are/were simply loopholes in Googles algorithm that got/get exploited by webmasters.

    Not a good idea. If you have other quality links, then it may have no affect at all. But on the other hand it could be really harmful depending on your link profile.

    I think you should not be penalized with this. Otherwise, other people that hate you could be affecting you.

    There is no benefit to doing this because if you submit a poost on 100 of same ip sites then it will be considered as only one. That's why always use different ip site.
