Case Study 5<br />

Websites: nursefindersuk.com<br />

Method: External Linking<br />

External linking is the most challenging SEO technique to test. To be considered as an<br />

external link, the site should come from a different subnet. Otherwise the site could be<br />

considered within the same site. In the case <strong>of</strong> CPL, despite there being multiple<br />

websites, Google may take the approach that links between CPL sites are internal links<br />

rather than external. For example both www.cpl.ie and www.kcr.ie point to the same IP<br />

address [159.134.95.180]<br />

nursefindersuk.com is another medical recruitment site belonging to the CPL group. The<br />

main difference between the nursefindersuk.com site and the other CPL sites is the<br />

hosting. Nursefindersuk.com is hosted in a different location to the CPL websites. The IP<br />

address for the Nursefindersuk.com site is 83.138.191.203. Therefore links from CPL to<br />

Nursefinders will be seen as external links.<br />

Link to KCR.ie site:<br />
