SEO Advice – SEO Hosting Explained

Ukit asks:

In a previous post you said…

“I’d say go with multiple sites, just make sure they’re on different class C’s that way you can cross link them and pass juice.”

Can you clarify this part? What are different class C’s?

Also had a question I had about keyword domains – does the order of the keywords matter – I’m guessing it does, but how much? If lots of users search for “tech widgets,” is widgetstech.com valuable at all?

My Advice

I’m working on moving our hosting at the moment. Basically if you have 2 sites on the same IP range (a block of IP’s purchased in one go by the ISP) then should the sites interlink, Google will see them as a family of sites and down grade the link juice passed across. talk to your host about hosting your sites on different C Classes, they should have some free up and down their IP ranges as customers come and go they leave holes which is ideal for this purpose!

Regarding keyword order, yes its preferable, but if you cant get it then the strength of anchor text on inbound links can be used to push Google to rank you for a de-jumbled keyword string… just as with any domain.

its the difference between searching for
key term
“key term”

hope that helps.

BTW if your in the UK and need different class C’s then try hotchilli.com and speak to Dave who seems on the ball (I’m not sold yet tho lol!)
