My list is growing fast and I am not going to far out of my way to find them. See directories stored on the same IP. Does anyone else think that this is ridiculous? If you have want to check on a particular directory then do a search on the domain at Web Directories. I also have a list of directories on the same IP C Class.
Please tell me someone man... my three directories are on the list of Same Ip... now tell me is there any way to separate their Ip addresses
No not all 140. SEe the list with the IPs. Sometimes you may have 7 or 8 on the same IP and other times 2 or 3 on the same IP.
Anyone that wants 100% proof before acting should get into something else other than SEO. On the other hand, since there are soooo many other directories out there I would suggest submitting to other ones, especially if you are paying for a link or an ad.
I don't think that should make any difference, despite if they all share the same IP. It's still the domain name that is more important, rather IP address.
Think again. Google will penalize for too many incoming links on the same IP address. They detect this as an attempt to manipulate their algo.
making this list is a good idea and it really doesn't surprise me at all..there bound to be many more that have the same IP. Keep looking.:0)
At my Ask Premium Directory I use private dedicated IP and I pay $2 more a month for this because I want my clients to 100% satisfied, but I really think this IP thing is another SEO myth. My proof, I know of a directory that is PR7 and 80% of the links pointg to him are 20 PR4 sitewides from the same IP different domains, at least on PR I don’t think it matters on other things I don’t know.
Yea, I too have found that the IP thing really has no negative effects on PR. I have one site in particular, that I never spent anytime promoting, so probably 99% of its backlinks are from my other sites, all stored on the same server. It went from PR0 to PR5 last update.
Your proof says that the links made the little green bar go to 7. You don't mention that it had any effect on helping the site rank well in the SERPs for competitive keywords.
