      I use one Godaddy shared Linux hosting account for 4 separate websites. In Google Webamster Tools, specifally "Sitr Errors," I noticed that inner pages from another site are being listed as a broken link in the original unique-now-shared site. I checked and the files are not mi-installed. My question is, should each of the four sites have a unique hosting plan and/or static IP?

      Thanks,

      Eric

        As you probably know, the shared sites are set up as sub folders within the main site.  You need to make sure that Google sees these sub folders only through their respective domain names, and does not see them as sub folders within the main domain.  Otherwise, Google will think the pages are duplicates.  You can control this in your robots.txt file of the main domain (i.e. instruct Google not to look at those sub folders when crawling the main site).

        Best,
        Christopher

        • If multiple links on a page point to the same URL, and one of them is no-followed, does that impact the one that isn't?
