Can Banned Sites On A Shared Hosting Account Harm My Website
As and when we come across new experiences or information that we think might be valuable to you in helping your website grow then we will share that information here. Very recently we helped a website owner improve there movie database/site in google and start getting it ranked higher more naturally. A good website with a good reputation can naturally rank higher without the need to link build heavily to that particular page.
We noticed that our client was on a shared hosing account with hostgator and there were around 2,000 sites on this one server, after doing some investigation we noticed that a few of the sites on this shared server were pretty spammy with the odd few banned from google completely. Our client asked if this would harm his website and would it be worth him getting a dedicated server. In the long run a dedicated server is the best but shared hosting is still very good. Google understands that you don’t have control of the sites on a shared server so why should you be penalised for the other sites mistakes, I would worry about having a few banned sites on your server or even spammy/scam sites and google will deal with them individually.
The only time your site might be affected is if all the sites on that server are spammy or banned and your site is the only clean site, for example google will ask itself why would a site be on a server with 1999 banned or spammy sites. This is theonly time google will think about penlasing your site or removing some of its weight.
So to conclude, don’t worry about shared hosting unless the server your on is full of spammy sites, I wold concentrate on other aspects of seo first before worry about shared hosting.
