SAME SHARED HOSTING – 1 BIG GOOGLE RANKING FACTOR?

‘Same Shared Hosting’ is a web hosting service where many websites reside on one web server connected to the Internet. This is Definitely the most easy way of hosting, as the overall cost of the server and server maintenance is spread over many customers.

Web hosting refers to the disk space on a server provided to you by a hosting company. For a yearly or monthly fee, you can store your website’s files on the company’s server and have them served to your visitors on the internet.

Many websites share resources on a single server with shared web hosting. This hosting service typically includes bandwidth, processing power and memory.

Shared Hosting Web Servers often host hundreds or even thousands of websites. They also allow users to set up multiple sites under one cloud hosting account.

The web server hosting company is responsible for providing basic user support and maintaining the server. The hosting firm is also responsible for ensuring basic server security and offering some protection from hackers and malware.

Most shared hosting packages include multiple tiers of service. Each tier has a different combination of features available for a given price. Remembers though, that as the website owner, you are responsible for configuring and maintaining your site.

One big problem with shared hosting for your website is that if one website gets infected with malware, other websites can get infected too. This can happen if the server’s security isn’t configured properly.

Another issue with shared hosting is the amount of resources (CPU, RAM MEMORY, FLASH DISK STORAGE). Since all sites share the server resources, a surprise surge in traffic on one website can cause other websites on the server to go down.

Below is an example of the use of ‘Same Shared Hosting’.

Recent SEO studies set out to discover if there was a negative impact on ranking on sites that were on shared hosting.

My professional webmaster experience with shared hosting is that it generally has no effect on the ability of a site to rank. That’s not my opinion, that’s a statement of fact from my actual experience of shared hosting of my clients on dedicated servers. It’s more important that sufficient web server resources are allocated based on the peak traffic those multiple websites on a single dedicated server.

Google Webmaster Trends Analyst John Mueller tweeted that the research was flawed and did not reflect how Google actually ranked websites.

“Artificial websites like this are pretty much never indicative of any particular effect in normal Google Search. It’s a cool experiment, a good write-up & analysis, and I love it when folks experiment like this, but it’s not useful data.”

To find out whether you’re on a shared server, a quick WHOIS lookup on a domain name is all that’s needed. WHOIS records are available for every domain, and show the domain owner and registration details. In the example above, clearly the site is running on a shared server.

A reverse IP lookup shows all the websites running on an IP address. If you do a reverse lookup on your server IP and see domains that aren’t yours, you’re not on a dedicated server. Use WhoIs.com, WhatIsMyIP.com, MXToolBox, iplocation.net, or a similar online reverse DNS tool.

CONCLUSION: LIKELY NOT A DIRECT RANKING FACTOR
