looks good

Only for you jungle cakes.

I would like to point out the downside of so-called SEO hosting.

Like a previous poster stated, the days of having huge internally linked networks is long gone - you can cross link all day but if you don't have link juice coming in you're dead in the water. Look at a vector space map of any cross linked network and it stands out like a sore thumb. Trust, authority, and quality link backs going to (apparently) quality domains is the direction that SEO is going, rather than the huge networks of crap of the late 90s and early 00s.

I would also point out that anyone (including google) can look up what IP is assigned to what host at ARIN; if your IPs are connected to a host that is known for advertising to people that deliberately want to influence their SE rankings, you are potentially setting yourself up for trouble.

The forward thinking SEO has dozens (or hundreds) of virtual accounts at different hosts, providing completely unrelated IPs and a mix of the hosts' and anonymous nameservers. He also quickly writes a custom bot for each host (with copious error management) that plugs into the back end of his management system to abstract the crap work of adding and managing domains.

You have to slide under the radar, and sometimes that means putting in a little extra effort.

:2 cents:

This is a great idea. :)

Ask 10 SEO "experts" the same question, get 10 different answers.

An SEO expert doesn't reveal anything. They just get #1 rankings and travel the world.

You are a salesman and have a vested interest in pushing the particular model of SEO that your hosting supports... This is an open discussion forum and I am just pointing out the other side of the coin. Having a lot of IPs is no magic bullet.

Actually, no. It is not my job to convince you what you need. Those that need it know why they need it. I just provide the solutions for them.

You know very little about what we do or how we do it, so you end up making lots of inaccurate assumptions. But that is okay. Like I said, those that need it know why they need it. I just provide the solutions for them.

Here's a question I've wanted to know and this is a good a place as any to ask it.
If I am interlinking my network, should each site be on its own class C? Say 20 sites. Does having them all on the exact same IP devalue the link weight?

Well I don't see you refuting any of my statements. The only way you could have true under-the-radar robustness as far as SE detection is if you have multiple hosts in separate geographic locations run as individual businesses, run from one back end; hence your multiple admin interfaces for each IP. Which is fine, but IMO if you're really a serious search engine webmaster you would be better off writing your own more flexible system to do the same thing, or pay someone else $500 to do it for you, rather than paying gotwebhost a hefty ongoing monthly premium.

Actually, we have servers all over the country.

I have never disputed that you can go get hosting at 30 different hosts to accomplish the same thing as what we provide, but that means you will have 30 different control panels, 30 different bills, 30 different support contacts.

We just make it easy and offer support that is second to none.

Again, ask 10 experts, get 10 different answers.

Well respected SEO Bruce Clay observed the following:

As far as interlinking sites sharing the same Class C (or IP), it has been suggested that linking two sites on the same IP carries about as much weight as an internal link.

Who knows, maybe I would still be married if I had kept my wives 2,000 miles away.
