Should we get more IPs?
-
We have an IP with 2 of our major sites hosted on it.
Because we own both, we exchange links obviously.
The question is, won't Google see that we have these sites on the same IP and thus figure for themselves that they might be owned by the same owner. So the it is almost link reciprocal linking.
The solution, host all sites on separate IPs?
-
Thanx for the good response Harald and Robert. I agree.
Logically I know Google ranks domain names, not IPs. But technically I am sure they use that data.

I think Harald is correct. It is already known so leave it be. Besides, you are talking about two sites and the effect they alone have on one another for linking. Why go to the expense and bother to have multiple IPs and manage them when you can focus elsewhere and keep this as it is and manage from one screen?
In the agency business we were tempted and did for a very short while go to a multiple IP approach. We even went so far as to never register as ourselves when we got the client domain names, etc. But, in the end, even with lots of sites, it is a pain in the butt and not worth the hassle. Our time is better spent in constructive pursuits.
Good question though and great answer Harald. Edit, sorry, Harry!

I think if they are now hosted together google knows it anyway.
We always take care of this before we set up new projects (From my experience - we in our projects could not see any difference - I think if your projects are good and have value then it dos not matter if thy are on same IP or not. ( If u going to get different IP - don't do SEO Hosting - google will now that all this IP´s are going to the same location).

Thanx Herald.
They do not have the same DNS server or GA ID.

Hi Marcel,
are the websites using the same DNS and do the have the same page owner (same Analytics ID,....)Then don't think about another IP

Is it worth getting a backlink to a page that will be 301'd?
I have an opportunity to get high value backlinks (from the Emmy's) to a landing page before our new website is live. The backlinks won't be free and they would go live before the website is live. Is it worth spending the money if the landing page will be redirected once the site goes live?

Get number of OUTBOUND link from a domain ??
Hello I´m doing some link profile audit and I noticed that there are some data that would be nice to know for a proper evaluation. The case is the following: Imagine I have a link coming from a blog, so (besides other factors) would be really great to know how many external links follow-nofollow this blog has. I dont mean external links pointing to them (what opensite gives you), what I would like to know is the total number of links this blog has pointing to other external websites. With this data, I would be able to guess in a better way if this blog is selling links or if is spammy. I would be able to know also how this blog/domain distributes its link juice and if the link gives me some value or if is dangerous. I have found some tools/sites but i just get the number of links a specific url has, not the domain info: Screaming frog (but the free version gives you almost nothing, link count checker, etc... ) Do you know any way to get this data in a domain level? You think this data would be important to decide about keeping a link or taking it out? Why none of the powerful tools of the market (opensite, majestic, etc...) provide this info? Many thanks for your help

Best five links to get first for a new website
I wondered if people had a list of the top five or ten links you should build for a new website in order to add some sense of authority. For example should a new website start with key social media websites such as Twitter, Google+ and Linkedin ? Or top level directories such as BOTW and DMOZ? Should they local for niche website directories in their location or vertical? If you had to choose five links - free or paid which would they be?

Is there a way to leverage paid advertisements placed in industry specific publications to get SEO benefits?
Is there a way to leverage paid advertisements placed in industry specific publications to get SEO benefits? I am looking to advertise in publications like trade journals or magazines, but want to also reap SEO benefits by getting a link. So I am avoiding buying banner ads, but instead trying to find opportunities for links from editorial mentions, quality article or editorial submissions, etc. Advice on the link proposition, or best way to approach editors, please? Many of these publications are traditional print publications, and their sites are really seo'd. Thanks.
