    Dedicated vs shared IP isn't a factor in ranking. You can't jump to conclusions just because you did something and your rankings increased - it does not automatically mean it was related. Google tweaks its algorithm hundreds of times per year, and combine that with site age (a known factor) and link age, and you can get daily fluctuations. The dedicated IP myth has been debunked many times. It probably started because most larger sites have dedicated IPs, but you'll also find they have many more backlinks that other sites they are outranking.

    Are you sure, because I never got good ranking without a dedicated IP. I mean, out of 16,100,000 results for "getting ranked on google" without quotes I may add I'm got on the first page in 19 hours.

    Number of search results means nothing in relation to how many people actually search for the keyword/phrase. According to google, only 140 WORLDWIDE searches for that term a month. That's an extremely non-competitive phrase (4 searches a day) and should be very easy to rank for.

    Yes, I am sure. Dedicated IP has nothing to do with your rankings.

    While this is a good and interesting post, especially for newbies, I think like other posters here: dedicated ip or not doesn't matter for PR as I got a PR3 for two sites of mine in less than three months... Just built backlinks (by submitting articles to article directories and free traffic system), I did nothing else - and have a shared ip :)
