Question for the SEO Wizz Kids - GoFuckYourself.com

JD · 07-16-2006, 12:50 PM

My current host blows nuts, and I want to switch hosts. I've got top rankings with the site hosted with them and I'm worried that if I change IP's google will drop my shit.

Has anyone noticed if google penalizes for changing IP's? I'd like tokeep my rankings

munki · 07-16-2006, 12:54 PM

Shouldn't hurt you to bad unless...

a. You move from a previously clean dedicated ip, to a known spam shared ip
b. an ip recently being used by someone banned by the SEs.

If your moving from a shared to a clean dedicated, you could even see a boost.

Hit up http://splitinfinity.com/. They've got they're shit together hostwise, incredible and quick customer service, and they can walk you through any concerns I'm sure.

You should've moved when I first told you to, a few months ago. See what you get for not listening?

rarely a drive should cause an 11 hour downtime, unless it is a special, magical drive that you did not have any backup on

yeah, I'm fucking livid. First I wake up and bash my little toe on the door frame walking into my office, then I burn myself with a cig then DamageX tells me my shit is dead...today has pretty fucking sucked ass.

V_RocKs · 07-16-2006, 03:37 PM

Wow... good reason to switch...

yeah, i'm thinking fuck it, even if I drop a bit for switching IP's/Hosts the ranks will come back, and in the long run not being with these clowns is better for the site.

well, it's back up now, and there's no data loss so thats good. Now time to look for a new host

nico-t · 07-16-2006, 04:13 PM

i changed hosts a few months ago and it didnt have any effect on my SE rankings... no probs at all

Sharky01276 · 07-17-2006, 05:07 AM

This shouldnt be a problem as google operated using Domain names rather than IP's, as mentioned above you will ONLY have problems if you put your site on a IP which is considered a bad neighbour hood.

Dont change your design if you have a design google likes keep it!

extreme · 07-17-2006, 05:11 AM

ip address is only a very minor part of Googles anti spam stuff.

No need to worry.

woj · 07-17-2006, 05:13 AM

who is the shitty host you host with now anyway?

I remember them telling both of us they allowed adult, go figure. Their BS is why I'm no longer hosting with them.
