hello everyone... what are your thoughts regarding IP addresses... if you have a site with a "Class A" IP (i.e. IP addresses with a first octet from 1 to 126) vs. a "Class C" IP (i.e. IP addresses with a first octet from 192 to 223) do you feel the search engines will give more "weight" to a website with a "Class A" IP as it is supposed to indicate a large network / business? Also, would there be a better chance for a Class A to get out of the sandbox faster?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts...

There's always a possibility that it could be a factor, but I would doubt that the "weight" that it would give would be of much help at all. I really woudn't worry about it. There are so many other variables at play that carry a great deal of weight that something this detail oriented really wouldn't matter even if it is a factor.
