My website (non-adult) is not appearing in Google search results when i have safe search settings on. How can i fix this?
-
Hi,
I have this issue where my website does not appear in Google search results when i have the safe search settings on. If i turn the safe search settings off, my site appears no problem. I'm guessing Google is categorizing my website as adult, which it definitely is not. Has anyone had this issue before? Or does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Let us know how it goes, either with a response here, or a case study on YouMoz. Best of luck!

Yeh i also noticed that there are some pages indexed but the homepage and some other pages on the website don't show up. We have a network of 35 sites, 8 of these sites are experiencing this same problem, the rest are fine. Im not exactly sure when this issue started but i beleive it has only happened recently.
Thanks for the help, i will sumbit the URL's for reconsideration and see how we go from there.

And here's the place to ask that you site be reconsidered:
-
I enabled safe search, then did a site:blackcupid.com search on Google. There are a lot of pages that show up as indexed, though I didn't see the home page right off. If I search for Black Cupid, I do see pages from that domain, but not the home page.
I took a snippet from the help page at http://www.blackcupid.com/help/helpcategory.cfm and searched for it in Google, with safe search on. Google is showing dozens of results from similar sites, such as Brazil Cupid and Japan Cupid (then I went to the home page and saw that all of those sites are indeed related).
How are the other sites performing? Do they have the same problem? Have you always had this problem, or is it new?
Any messages from Google in GWT?

Thanks for the quick response Keri - http://www.blackcupid.com/

Could you include your URL? That could help us out.
I've had some filters block access to strikemodels.com presumably because of the "models" in the URL (it's actually model warships), but haven't had a problem with Google filtering it out.

Can Google Crawl & Index my Schema in CSR JavaScript
We currently only have one option for implementing our Schema. It is populated in the JSON which is rendered by JavaScript on the CLIENT side. I've heard tons of mixed reviews about if this will work or not. So, does anyone know for sure if this will or will not work. Also, how can I build a test to see if it does or does not work?

Can I tell Google to Ignore Parts of a Page?
Hi all, I was wondering if there was some sort of html trick that I could use to selectively tell a search engine to ignore texts on certain parts of a page. Thanks!

Why is Google Displaying this image in the search results?
Hi i'm looking at advice on how to remove or change a particular image Google is displaying in the search results. I have attached a screenshot. From the first look of it, i assumed the image would be related and be on the dealers Google+ Local Page: https://plus.google.com/118099386834104087122/about?hl=en But there are no photos. The image seems to be coming from the website. Is there a way to stop Google from displaying this image or making them display a totally different image. Thanks, Chris XzfsnUy.png

My website hasn't been cached for over a month. Can anyone tell me why?
I have been working on an eCommerce site www.fuchia.co.uk. I have asked an earlier question about how to get it working and ranking and I took on board what people said (such as optimising product pages etc...) and I think i'm getting there. The problem I have now is that Google hasn't indexed my site in over a month and the homepage cache is 404'ing when I check it on Google. At the moment there is a problem with the site being live for both WWW and non-WWW versions, i have told google in Webmaster what preferred domain to use and will also be getting developers to do 301 to the preferred domain. Would this be the problem stopping Google properly indexing me? also I'm only having around 30 pages of 137 indexed from the last crawl. Can anyone tell me or suggest why my site hasn't been indexed in such a long time? Thanks

Can Google read my backlink in Javascript??
Hi SeoMoz community! I have a software product, which our clients implement onto their websites. It is like a pop up box. I know that backlinks are very important for SEO ranking, and I really want to give our clients 2 options of product: 1. you can get the free/cheaper option if you use the code which has a keyworded backlink to our site on it 2. you can pay small fee if you don't want to use the version with a link to our site on it Now, the problem is that the product is written entirely in Javascript, and I don't think that Google crawls this, do they? Is there a way around this? Thanks for your help!
