Setting up a Blog Network

Discussion in 'Link Development' started by Filfy, Apr 15, 2008.

    I see that many services offered on DP are links from blog networks with different IP addresses. So whats the most efficient way to set one up with the different IP addresses? I have multiple domains and are all part of my niche, it would be easier to use these services, but in the end if I can provide my own niche blogs, then I guess it would be more beneficial.

    So, is there a hosting service that provides a service suitable and affordable to these needs? Or is there a club somewhere, where everyone shares space on different hosts?

    Anyways, this thread could have been posted on a hosting or development forum, but thought the main goal is for link building so I ask you guys.

    Better get a dedicated server or VPS that allow alot of IPs, usually they only allow upto 5 Ips per servers. For more, you need to pay, about 1$ per IP per month.

    share hosting does not ( or rarely) give you more than 2 IPs

    Hope it helps

    I agree with daddy dad. You'll be fine with a bunch of domains.

    Thanks for the input guys, very helpful.

    as for Daddy dad, when you say unique IPs aren'y helpful for SEO, doesn't a bunch of blogs from the same IP kind of put you at risk of link scheme if they send links to the same sites?

    I'm trying to build some support links to a specific niche that there aren't as many blogs available. So since I have a bunch of related domains, figure I use them to help support and promote my service sites.

    Thanks again

    If you want the different IP addresses, you need to use different web hosting services to make sure the IP addresses are different. :D

    Wordpress.com has over a million blogs on subdomains many linking to each other over and over again. It also has over 15,000 domains hosted there.

    The combined traffic of the wordpress.com network is over 4 million page views per day the majority of which are referrals from Google.

    For example I have a hosted domain on Wordpress.com which shares the same IP as http://offtherack.people.com which is also on wordpress.com.

    Daddy Dad,

    Good point. Plus, I imagine there are so many sites that are hosted with Hostgator, Godaddy and these major hosting companies, that many of the links I get may be from the same IP.

    Thanks for explaining. Appreciate it the help.

    Daddy,

    Can you explain "The combined traffic of the wordpress.com network is over 4 million page views per day the majority of which are referrals from Google."

    I somewhat understand your point I just don't see how Google is referring people to wordpress.com without them specifically searching for an individual's blog that is hosted there. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    You can always take advantage of Wordpress Multiuser installations allowing you to create a blog on someone else's server or hosting platform. This is not illegal or whatever, There are 2 versions of wordpress, normal wordpress and multiuser wordpress. The user who hosts has a choice of which one they want to host. Normally people host these MU platforms host ads to get money from people such as I who use their sites. This is what I do. If you are interested in offering your own blog network service, my software may be of some interest to you.

    I'm saying that wordpress.com has literally millions of blogs on the same group of IP addresses that cross link to each other yet the blogs on wordpress.com do well in Google search results.

    So it's anecdotal evidence, but my own experience also suggests that unique IP addresses are unimportant.

    They are? I always thought that acquiring backlinks from different IP's was an
    important part of seo.

    Remeber that you can supplement your paid .com blogs with some blogs from various free hosts such as blogsome.com and blogger.com etc. to give your network more unique ip addresses.
