Multiple backlinks from same site

Google likes to see link profiles that show a rich diversity of links from a wide range of domains, so take the time to broaden your link sources rather than depending on a single domain.

The positive effect of multiple inbound links from the same domain is very limited at best and they are often completely discounted by Google.

I hope this helps.

Google knows far more than a simple index of your host. It also logs the originating host IP address and if you have several websites on the same host it aint so stupid as the count multiple links from the same C class IP address as full value...

Quite simply, Google knows who links to you, and they have excellent sorting algorithms which basically group all those links in multiple categories, they have an internal PR(or whatever) score which is calculated by relevancy, saturation, user data etc and these groups of links get an overall score which generally contributes to your websites search engine rankings position.

Or at least that's what they say. In fact, it's just an educated guess.... My personal belief is that if you own 2 sites of value, and interlink, then yes that is going to help with Page Rank, Trust Rank, Popularity and of course SERPs.

So really, in my opinion, whether you have 2 sites or a dozen sites, as long as they are run with good content and independently of each other (no automated scripts to generate content) then interlinking even from the same C class IP address is going to give your website/s increased authority.

Or of course you could set up 10/20/50/100/1000 websites from domains you have registered for one year each and cost you the hassle of setting the name servers, creating scripts to auto-generate content then meticulously place links from specific parts of each in the hope that despite no true value they will somehow contribute to your main sites popularity. OK - so yeah, that's just going to FAIL or work short term at the very best.

I don't think Google is immune to tricks but they follow the SEO marketplace carefully, as you would expect, and as quickly an idea like "lets reg 200 domains and point them all to our main domain" comes about they are pretty damn fast with addressing it.

If it's SE0 advice you are after :) 1.Article marketing. 2. 3rd party blog posts. 3. Relevant directories. 4. Relevant site links. 5. Forum profiles(with allowed anchor texts)

Think I may have jumped the gun sorry, :-/

If you are and yes, you are! Talking about multiple links from the same site. In my experience this works well, BUT, just chucking several links from one page is going to devalue the links somewhat. However, deep linking from separate pages within one site poses no such problems. Example: If the BBC runs an article on Wikipedia, then another the next week, and includes references to different internal pages, then both links, despite being from the same site, should pass the same weight in PR(or whatever) to the internal pages of the specified site/URL... But - IF the BBC ran an article which had 5 different links in it, all pointing to the home page and all utilising different anchor texts, I do not believe that Google will pass rank so easily. I expect that if you could do that then rankings would be very easy to manipulate with poor quality links and also, if a page has only so much authority it can flow to one page on an external site, then by adding multiple links you are only going to be diluting that authority and not really gaining anything additional of value.

I have to disagree here.

In my opinion, the first link from any one domain will count the most, and although subsequent links from other pages on that domain may add some additional value, it will be considerably less than the first link.

Google considers such factors at the domain level, otherwise, imagine the carnnage with every SEO spending days linking all of the different pages on every one domain to all of the different pages on every other domain, etc.

Who said all SEO's on here agree on everything? :)

it would be counted as a single back link as for my knowledge.I have seen most people buys links from different ips that would counted.If you also kept on 5 domains which were hosted on same ip then it would also counted as single link
This is are just my thoughts and i have seen in other forums

yes it can work but too many and the rest wont count or have very limited advantages. best way is to spread your links widely. otherwise you buy one website put 1000 links to your site and bingo rank well. im afffraid life isnt that easy.
