Google: IP Addresses Don’t Matter For Backlinks & Search Rankings

Google’s John Mueller replied “nope” when asked if IP addresses count for one-way links and search scores. For example, does it matter if a number of your links on your US website come from Australia?

John said this on Twitter while asking if the IP copes with the vicinity and makes any difference in a site’s ratings. I even have a website for a US-based corporation, and the IP is in Utah, but some online services show it from Australia. Is it a hassle for a US service to have a website “in” Australia?” Then, any other search engine marketing said sure, “But I consider IPs do matter when it comes to your inbound link profile.” John genuinely answered, “Nope.”

Google: IP Addresses Don't Matter For Backlinks & Search Rankings 15

Many SEOs accept that IP c-blocks should be counted while doing search engine marketing and linking. But Google has been downplaying the importance of IP addresses for years.

I think IP addresses do matter. I was doing my small enterprise linking myself (glaringly from my PC best), and nothing enhanced my approach; I felt my approach was terrible. Later on, I contacted Searchberg, and they told me they had an assist, and it seems the difficulty changed to the IP (my IP) that I turned into constructing hyperlinks with. Their expertise helped me out. I’m doing desirable nowadays.

Right, John! Thank you, Google. An internet site server can be located everywhere in India. Can you please inform me, as I am a user and feature dental exercise in London, from the same offerings issuer and other 10 – 20 competitors also have the same? Still, the one’s agencies are not mine; however, same server address? But I have seen ranking fall. This seems incorrect to the clients and the service issuer. What do you watch, John and Blogger?
