We have just completed a new website which we believe has unique and useful content.

Due to the nature of the site, it makes sense to deep link to three of our other sites from various sections / pages.

This would be one way linking not reciprocal.

We have our own server but I read time and time again that if you're going to get incoming links they should be from different IP ranges.

Obviously we can't divide the server in two, so this creates a bit of a problem as we require an additional hosting location.

Has anyone got any evidence to support the claim that incoming links are much more beneficial from different IP ranges?

Or any evidence to suggest that linking in this way could be damaging to us?

Many Thanks
