Linkbuilding - right or wrong?

I have 7 websites, three on one server, and four on another server.

All theese sites link to each other - in the bottom of the websites, like this:

Partnersites | xxx.org, xxx.com, xxx.net, xxx.com and so on.

Five of the sites are Brazilian, two another Danish.

I know that Google does not give as much 'power' to sites linking from the same server, BUT, does Google penalise the sites for having links from one to another?

I'm concerned because the sites have nothing to do with each other in any way, and some of them are not even with the same language written.

  • I'd remove them. Why? One, because they're probably not providing any ranking benefit anyway - they're reciprocal and Google doesn't like link exchanges, and also because they're unrelated (relevance as a ranking factor is becoming more important). Two, though I think it's unlikely, you could be penalized for having unnatural links.

  • links to the sites on same server were never benefilical, it has no value for SEO or Ranking, but this is certainly not a reason for google to penalize the site. I never built sites on the same server.

    • You are right. Backlinks from sites which belongs to same server, does not provide much SEO value. It may give you some referral traffic. That's it.

    I link my sites together but I also target one niche & I link out to a few sites I don't own because they're relevant sites that I personally like.

    I've been doing this for years with no problems ranking pages, matter of fact I usually rank a couple of my domains per main keywords. More traffic, same links...

    • When you link them up do you use different IP's and all that bullcrap ? Or no?

  • i have recently build a link on same niche site that has PR2 and now i am getting more traffic from google. i think link building really works .
  • I insist you to 1st remove the links coming from the same server. There are millions of website from which you can get backlinks from Y are U trying to link within your server.
  • is a mistake to interlinking your network. move your sites on different hosts can help

  • Yeah what's the point in linking them together. If there is one site that is getting links from all the others, that would make sense. But if they don't have major link juice, it's not going to help you either way. You're probably sending bad signals to Google with what you're doing, so I would remove it until you have a plan of attack.
  • Nah, that wont hurt your site man. Move along.
