How to use a Bulk Class C IP Checker
Ok, what the heck is a Bulk Class C IP Checker?
First, we must ask the question what is a Class C IP Address:
From How Stuff Works:
Class C – Class C addresses are commonly used for small to mid-size businesses. IP addresses with a first octet from 192 to 223 are part of this class. Class C addresses also include the second and third octets as part of the Net identifier. The last octet is used to identify each host. This means that there are 2,097,152 (221) Class C networks each with 254 (28 -2) possible hosts for a total of 536,870,912 (229) unique IP addresses. Class C networks make up an eighth of the total available IP addresses. Class C networks have a first bit value of 1, second bit value of 1 and a third bit value of 0 in the first octet.
So a Class C Ip address is an IP address for small to mid-size websites. The domain names you and I would purchase fall into this category.
A bulk Class C IP Checker checks multiple domain names at once and displays whether they are hosted on the same server or not. Why would this be helpful?
If you were to purchase multiple text link ads for your advertising campaign, you want each link to be hosted on a different server. Search engines can tell where that link resides. Even though your links may appear on multiple websites, all those websites may reside on the same server. Search engines have a tendency to disqualify the extraneous links if they see they all come from the same IP address. So to ensure you get the most link-bang for your buck, you want each link to reside on a different server. Thats were the bulk checker comes in.
Bulk ip checkers are a dime a dozen, most webmaster websites have one. I will point you to Bulk C Class IP Checker at Authority Domains for two reasons.
First, the screen output is formatted nicely. They break out the domains by unique ips, duplicate class c blocks, duplicate ips, failed to resolve domain names and all domains/ips. Second, the tool will let you download the results in a cvs file, a function which a lot of ip checkers dont have.
Once you begin to develop you text link ad campaign, make sure you run the websites through the ip checker first. It would be a waste of money if you weren’t getting your dollar’s worth from the search engines for each of your links.
