    Hello,

    I'got a question that perhapse you guys can shed some light on....

    I am about to launch a site that we have been working on for the past 2 weeks. I have been spending alot of time going over the content and making sure that everything is in place and that it is optimized as much as possible.

    I want to go with a cheap shared server hosting plan, but I want to make sure that the hosting service (or hosting IP) that we choose is in good standing with Google.

    Is there a simple way to tell other than asking the hosting service??? (which I many not necessaraly trust to tell me the truth)

    Also, is there anything wrong with going with a hosting service that offers, say a $6.00 per month hosting plan as opposed to a $39.00 per month hosting plan???


    Again, thanks fellas!!

    Hi,

    I'm with Nevidia hosting, you can try them out. Didn't have any problems with them for a year now. Yea, and I got PR of 4 two days ago smile, i wanted to move to lunarpages as they offer more space and bandwidth, but i think i stay with nevidia.

    Anyway, I ordered today a dedicated ip to be sure 100%, that comes as $8.50/month altogether with dedicated ip, 250 MB space 5 GB bandwidth. Hope that helps.

    You don't have to worry about a host being "in good standing with Google". As long as your domain name is in good standing with Google, you don't have to worry about it.

    Ok...

    That's interesting and that makes sense.

    I though that I read somewhere that if there is a hosting company that say, has several cloaked sites (or whatever) that Google can penalize the shared server that those sites (or site) is located.

    As far as I know, Google will penalize the domains, not the whole shared server. The only way to get around this is to make sure your domain is hosted on its own unique IP address. And you should be doing that anyway.

    If you're not cloaking, though, you have nothing to worry about.

    How would one know if their Domain name is in good or Bad standing with Google?
