Hey Guys! Quick Question. If google discounts links all from the same IP class like off the same server etc. How do they go with blogger.com ??? You have thousands of blogs all ont he same site etc. Is it then only worthwhile to get a link from 1 site??? or does this not apply to sites or servers like blogger. Cheers p.s i know from a traffic point its good but im thinking from a PR/SERPS point of view.
Actually Google doesn't mind same IP addresses as long as you don't have a huge number of sites. Blogger and other blogging systems are probably treated as individual sites for each blog.
Because Blogger is Google's FRIEND I have two websites on same IP and when i try to link them , google mess up with both of those sites.. and cashed both as a single site.. so i keep my links out and now everything is fine Google will do nothing until you have a link between them.. even if you have a lot of sites on same IP
Mani, I have links interchanged between 2 of my blogs and it din't effect either of them..so i guess google does nothing with that
The whole "links from the same IP block are bad" is a myth. It's an old one that started long ago, when people were discussing what might constitute a "link farm", what would be logical flags to look for. Someone suggested that having a bunch of sites on one IP would probably be easy to detect, and someone then mis-repeated that as "If you have any sites linking to each other on the same Class C Google will flag you as a link farm", which is untrue. Of course, if it is a link farm, well, yeah, you might get hit with a penalty... but in general I highly doubt that is anything major that G would be worried about. Think in terms of the spammer that got "billions" (or however many) of pages into the indexed, all interlinked, all nicely ranked, in a short period of time. Not only were those all from the same Class C, they were all from the same actual IP address. Google didn't catch them or penalize them... someone had to actually Digg the story for the spammers to even get any attention at all from Google. -Michael
I enjoy first part of your post, but this, quoted, is inciting me to say that spam pages (doorways) are connected between each other within one domain (subdomain), so this example has nothing to deal with subject of this tread.
What am I reading specifically? This? Why would you believe this? Was there something deeper backing this up (sry, didn't read the entire thread, just first page). Edit - Ok, read the thread. I see what you're saying, but I think there must have been more to it. sqeeze, at the time of this incident, separate subdomains were actually treated as separate sites, so yes, it does relate. I know there might be some sort of exception for subdomains to be excluded from an interlinking flag system, but that doesn't change the fact that there still is no evidence of there being one in the first place. -Michael
