Blog sites advice
 

I have decided I want to go ahead and put up my own blog sites for posting offsite blogs for my phone sex company sites. Before I worry about hiring a designer I need some advice.

Currently all of my phone sex sites are ran off a private server with Hostgator. So I know with SEO that having links and stuff coming from different IPs seems to be pretty important. So I am assuming it would be best to put these blog sites on different servers and / or hosting companies.

Here is my question I guess. If I put them on shared domain hosting and I want each blog site to be a different IP how do I make sure that happens if its shared hosting? Is that possible or how important is it actually?

Remember, many hosting companies does not give you IP-addresses any more just like that.

Example Hostgator and many other requires this:
"All dedicated IP addresses may only be ordered if they will be used with a fully signed SSL certificate (this includes private, multi-domain, wildcard and extended validation SSLs)."

Ok then if I wanted (If this would even benefit me) each blog site to be guaranteed on a different IP the only way I could probably guarantee that is to have each one with shared hosting at different hosting companies?

I keep feeling like I am over complicating this in my head but if I am going to do all the extra work and expense of this I want the most bang for my buck SEO wise.

There are a lot more things to consider besides unique IPs. Google is hunting down private blog networks and its methods are getting better and better.

Think of all these things to be different for each blog:
C block IPs
Domain registrars and accounts
Whois info
Google accounts for GWT and GA

And these are not a complete list. So, think twice if you're ready for what it takes. If you want to game the system for getting good SE traffic, be prepared to get all of your sites penalized, once Google finds out a trace that they all belong to you....

Yeah sounding way more complicated than I really want to get involved with. We already do twitter, fb and twitter for offsite stuff guess we can stick with that.

Glad I helped. Good luck
