    As it relates to SEO, C Class IP is important as it relates to backlinks. When Google and the other search engines are indexing the backlinks to your site, they want to see backlinks from a variety of IP address . If all your backlinks come from the same IP address, it doesn't look natural and the backlinks will loose value.

    As it relates to SEO, C Class IP is important as it relates to backlinks. When Google and the other search engines are indexing the backlinks to your site, they want to see backlinks from a variety of IP address (URL's). If all your backlinks come from the same IP (URL) address, it doesn't look natural and the backlinks will loose value.

    As an example if you have a website www.abc.com and a blog that you use to promote your website at www.abc-blog.com. Google will notice that all your backlinks are coming from the same IP address (www.abc-blog.com) which looks suspicious as if you were trying to manipulate the system. In the era of spam, many webmasters started creating multiple website on same server and linked each other to increase the sites backlink and ranking. Search Engines identified this issue and started avoiding links coming from similar IPs – given its easy to get different D class ips on same server, Search Engines also started avoiding Links from same C Class IP. So when Search Engine see that you’ve a link coming from same C Class IP on which your website is located, the backlink will not have any importance. Please note you’ll not get penalized if you’ve link coming from same C class IP, but you’ll not get any advantage either. So if you are doing the link exchange specially if you don’t have your own server, do check if the person you are linking to has a different C class ip than yours.
