    the website is currently hosted on a shared plan from hostgator and i took a dedicated ip, i want to see how search engine sees it, as a dedicated or a shared.

    the nameservers are something like that:

    ns43225.hostgator.com
    ns43226.hostgator.com

    but again: the shared account and the domain has dedicated ip

    what do you think? the search engines will see it as a dedicated or shared?
    im not so good on server and ip technology.

    thank you in advance.:)

    if you have a dedicated ip for one website one ip
    then search engine will treat it as your website is on dedicated server.

    It dosen't depend on Nmaeserver as u said
    ns43225.hostgator.com
    ns43226.hostgator.com

    Usually we can see their name server from whois. If the same name server hosted so many domain, it could be shared hosting

    Yes ther are other websites hosted on the nameserver, but if you perform a nslookup on my domain shows a unique IP. If you type that IP in browsher, my site will apear....

    The difference is nameservers, this why im asking....Search Engines how does it make difference if it's on a dedicated server or not? by looking on the nameservers or performing a nslookup on domain? ...Im very confused.:confused:

    by performing nslookup, because by nameserver we can not say that website is on shared server or dedicated server. Nameserver (DNS ) are basically used to identify the Hostname.
    Every domain name must have a primary nameserver (eg. ns1.yourdomain.com), and at least one secondary nameserver (ns2.yourdomain.com etc). This requirement aims to make the domain still reachable even if one nameserver becomes inaccessible
