Should I Host New Blog On Different Server?
-
I am planning on starting a new blog focused on a very specific subject that is related to my current Lead Generation website. I am doing this because I want to build rankings for this site and have it link back to my Lead Generation website to increase its rankings (this is the main purpose). My question is do I need to host it on another server so Google will not see it as having the same IP or Subnet? Note: I already have one blog linked to my Lead Generation website under the same domain. This new blog would be linked to an entirely different domain.

I don't think you can out smart Google by putting websites on various sub nets for hosting, you really need to think about all levels how Google can track for example who is data, GA tracking codes, Adsense ID codes and thing that can link up the dots to show it is a mini net.
If you have a blog and the same site my advice is to host it all on one domain, sure enough you can host the site on 2 separate websites if you are using different TLD's and want to GEO target your website.

I really like Eric Ward and have used his services more than once and recommend him.
However, I would still place all of my topic-related content on a single site. Any links that are attracted to that content will then hit your primary domain and all of their value will strengthen it.
If you place the content on a satellite domain then the links that hit it will mainly help the satellite domain and only a tiny fraction of their value will help power the primary domain.
In my opinion it only makes sense to build a satellite site after your primary domain completely dominates your SERPs and then you use links from the primary domain to power the satellite site.

Really? I actually got the idea from a post by Eric Ward http://www.ericward.com/leglinkpop.html (it is listed as the Complete Strategy #1). I was thinking if I create another website I could talk about more subjective material, link to competitors, take guest posts, etc, all things that I can't do on my current site. Primarily though, I was thinking that I could ask for a link exchange where I link to someone from the new website and they link to me at my Lead Generation Website. What do you think?

I think that you will have much much better results by posting all of your content on the same domain.

Temporary Blog Removal Process Question
Hello, We need to temporarily remove our entire blog from one of our sites. They rely very heavily on the blog content; as the rest of the site does not have much. Is there a 'best' process for going about this? – Should we put a 302 redirect on the entire blog and if so should it be to the homepage or an under-construction type page? Any extra insight or suggestions would be helpful and appreciated. Looking forward to hearing from you! Thank you in advance for the help. Best,

New pages not ranking
I published some new landing pages about a month a go which are much better quality than previous pages and on an optimised URL. The old pages never ranked and the new pages aren't ranking either although they are much better. The old pages 301 redirect to the new pages. Any quick ways I can at least get them ranking? Not expecting Page 1 overnight but to at least see the new pages on Page 5 would be great!

Rankings Up instantly after publishing new blog article
Hello All, My question is, why did my site rankings go up all of a sudden as soon as I published an article in my blog and it gets indexed (almost immidiately) The rankings increase are the following Keyword 1: from Top 5 to Top 1 Keyword 2: from Top 4 to Top 2 Keyword 3: from Top 16 to Top 3 Keyword 4: from no where to Page 2 (big time keyword) Any ideas or experience on this? When it first happened early this week(i published a new article), my site rankings dropped back after a couple of days. I did the same pattern by pubishing a new article and it went back up again. No personalized result here btw. Thank you
