Why would my ip address show up in my webmaster tools links?
-
I am showing thousands of links from my servers ip address. What would cause that?
-
I went ahead and private messaged you the ip.
-
Would you mind posting the IP here? It "might" help.
-
If you try to type in just the ip address it will show up as this webpage not available. I don't know how Google has access, or why they would crawl a dns server.
-
What happens when you load the IP address? Does it load your website or something else?
-
That is actually my old thread. I never figured it out then either, I just know the number has almost doubled.

Just want to add that it is not my actual server but my dns server.
-
That is a good starting point. I have a little bit different problem though. My ip already has a 301 and it doesn't show up in site: at all. So weird.

Hi Niners52, This is a server administration issue. Normally the IP address version of the site is 301 redirected to the preferred domain. It looks like your site has been cached by Google based on the IP address. Here's a helpful thread discussing the issue and how to fix it:

Hope that helps! Cheers,

Should I care about this Webmaster Tools Message
Here is the message: "Googlebot found an extremely high number of URLs on your site: http://www.uncommongoods.com/" Should i try to do anything about this? We are not having any indexation issues so we think Google is still crawling our whole site. What could be some possible repercussions of ignoring this? Thanks Mozzers! -Zack

HTTP Errors in Webmaster Tools
We recently added a 301 redirect from our non-www domain to the www version. As a result, we now have tons of HTTP errors (403s to be exact) in Webmaster Tools. They're all from over a month ago, but they still show up. How can we fix this?

Do i need different IP addresses for mini sites?
Hi everyone We are currently building some non-advertorial based mini sites the link to a main "money site", these mini sites are all run off wordpress or similar and have different designs, however all the WHOIS data remains under one company. So therefore I dont know if really you need different Class C IP's anymore as google et al will just look at the whois records and link the websites up that way? Is this tactic still worth doing? Thanks for any input!
