Multiple Links from One Site. Does it hurt Your SEO? I have multiple links coming from BlogTalkRadio I show I do 5 times week and my blog. Does it help or hurt your SEO when the a lot of links coming from one location.

Hi Timothy,

To answer your question, I would say that as long as the site is relevant and not a link farm this wouldn't hurt your SEO. But it will not help it either because Google and other search engines won't give them the same value that it gives to different links from different site on different IP.

You should focus on gaining links from many different IP from site that are related to your content.

Nope! This is totally fine. Make sure though you don't load up too many links on a single page. If you do a show 5 times a week, getting a link per show would be best (2's fine as well), but if you're getting 3+ each show, there's a chance it won't send the best signals.

I have multiple links from content in the blog posts in SEOmoz to my model warship combat site, and it hasn't hurt me a bit. The latest link has helped my rankings. I also never turn down the link to my site when I do a liveblog over at Search Engine Roundtable. I wouldn't want them as my only links, that would look unnatural, but I'm happy to have more than one link from the same domain.

Follow-up question.

About 10% of our links come from 2 sister sites, one a standalone blog and one an exact duplicate hosted on Blogger.

We sponsor these sites and they put a banner ad up on each page with a link back to our site (no anchor text).

We have received a "we still see links to your site that violate our quality guidelines" message from Google.

Any chance that these hundreds of links from the same two blogs are a culprit?

Hi! This is probably best asked in its own thread, where a few more people will see it. Thanks!
