    Will running multiple sites under the same IP hurt SEO?


    Only if there is too much interlinking that the SE would see as a manipulative attempt to boost SERP and PR.

    In such case that you would want these sites to be interlinked, making them nofollow would be a good option to be on the safer side.

    Actually, inway is probably correct about addon domain hurting SEO. Aaron Wall, the SEO expert (www.seobook.com) said the same thing in a forum posting recently:

    Here is the question posted on his forum:
    I was trying to set-up another domain of my shared hosting account. I realized that the new domain is created as a sub-domain to the original domain I set up my account with.

    ex. newdomain.originaldomain.com

    I talked to support and he told me that is how all shared hosting works. From my understanding I now have content from all my new sites indirectly connected to my original site? The host service is Bluehost.com

    If this is the case should I just go with another hosting company to make sure my domains and content are kept separate. Aaron mentioned Pair as a good hosting company, do they do the same thing described above or is each domain totally separate?
    Here is Aaron's answer:
    you want your domains to be separate... like if somehow you get indexed under newdomain.olddomain.com you will have massive duplicate content issues.

    Good link, but inway's point is about independent domains being set up as add-on domains on the same IP - when they get indexed, they will be treated as duplicate content and penalties will follow, as Aaron Wall pointed out.

    If you have multiple domains added as add on domains , it will not not affect any SE rankings . I have 4 of my major sites all added as add on domains and they still possess quite attractive ranking for the select keywords.

    I do not know where Google states that, but if they do they are lying. I had a parked domain get indexed that has NEVER been linked to or advertised in any way. It was a unique name I made up and registered then decided not to use. When I did a search for the name the only hit was a page listing new registrations (mine). After I built the site on another domain name, I found out Google had the parked domain indexed (apparently from registration records). I had to unpark it because it was competing with and actually ranking higher in the SERP than the page it was parked under.

    Let me see what it is that you do not understand. You said that the page was not linked to from anywhere and then you said that there was a link from a page which listed new registrations???

    Which is it?

    Why are you saying that I said there was a link from the page that listed new registrations? I did not say that. What I said was "has NEVER been linked to or advertised in any way".

    EDIT: Unless google considers anything with ".com" a link whether it is linked or not, in which case all domains will be crawled/indexed upon registration rendering the point moot.

    Edit again: That should have said "all domains will be 'linked to' upon registration rendering the point moot. Whether it gets indexed after a crawl will depend upon other google factors.

    No, it will not hurt if your sites are spam/error free.

    If your IP is clean, then the sites fetch good results on the web.
