Having to type Google CAPTCHA all the time
-
Hi guys,
Our office has about 15 computers all on the same IP address and about 10 actively search on Google.
Recently we have been asked to type in CAPTCHA almost every single time searching on Google and would like to know if you have any suggestions of resolving this.
We do use Firefox Rank Checker to check ranking once per week (around 400 keywords) but we use Hide My Ass to hide the IP.
No malware or virus detected on computers in the network.
Many thanks for your help in advance

Also we use SEOQuake toolbar all the time which as far I know check Google PR + results count for a particular URL/domain. Is it a potential issue too?

Thanks for your prompt responses guys,
The solutions I intend to use are:
1. Use other SEs (Bing) for non SEO related searches (e.g. research, staff personal use etc.)
2. Stop using Rank Checker for rank checking.
3. Split the computers into using 2 internet connections so 7/each.
I don't really like the idea of using Hide My Ass when working all the time as it does slow down your connection + we can't send emails in Outlook when it's turned on too (which we often forget).
Any other suggestions you want to add/feedback for the above?
Thanks
David

Hi Ssssrpm, This is happened most of the times specially in the office which have about 15 computers & all are running on the same ip address. I advice you to use hide my ip software & then work. Most of the times when the google search is used then this happened according to google ters & conditions.
Google analyzes that the most of the searches are came from the same ip address because you are using about the 15 computers with same ip address. that 's why due to security issue the google for captcha.
But there are different coders which develops the software to resolve the captcha issue but they are in black hat category according to google conditions.
i hope that you query had been solved.

I had the same happening to me using Firefox Rank Checker and I believe they get flagged for taking resources. I suggest using SeoMoz instead.

I had this happen to me a few times, but the last time was about a year ago, from memory, but I have never used any automated tools to do searches, and I rarely do more than a few dozen searches per day (actually, I try not to use google now) If all of your PCs are on the same IP address, it will look like automated testing, so probably your only way to stop that is to use proxies with different or changing IPs.

Favicon not showing in google serps
Hi, I have a website where the favicon is not showing in the google mobile serps. It's appearing the default icon instead (world icon). This is the tag I have place in the head section of the website: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> The size of the favicon is 48x48 and it's appearing correctly in the browser tag. I've checked that the google robot can crawl it and in the server logs I can see requests from the "Google Favicon" user-agent. Has anyone had this same problem? Any advice?

Google not Indexing images on CDN.
My URL is: https://bit.ly/2hWAApQ We have set up a CDN on our own domain: https://bit.ly/2KspW3C We have a main xml sitemap: https://bit.ly/2rd2jEb and https://bit.ly/2JMu7GB is one the sub sitemaps with images listed within. The image sitemap uses the CDN URLs. We verified the CDN subdomain in GWT. The robots.txt does not restrict any of the photos: https://bit.ly/2FAWJjk. Yet, GWT still reports none of our images on the CDN are indexed. I ve followed all the steps and still none of the images are being indexed. My problem seems similar to this ticket https://bit.ly/2FzUnBl but however different because we don't have a separate image sitemap but instead have listed image urls within the sitemaps itself. Can anyone help please? I will promptly respond to any queries. Thanks

Homepage is deindexed in Google
We recently noticed that our primary page was de-indexed in Google. When looking in google search console there are no manual actions taken. We did add a few new banners to the site but I have no idea why this would have negatively affected that site. I did add a new page called https://enleaf.com/company/testimonials/ that had some duplicate testimonials that were also on the home page but have since removed that. Not sure where to go from here.

Why my ranking on google just disappeared
I have my website ranked on page one probably in top 6, but all of a sudden around 3-4 months before my website just disappeared for that keyword. Any suggestions? Keyword: Brass rod, brass rods webpage url: www.jayjalaramext.com/brass-rods/ and the website itself www.jayjalaramext.com Is it over optimized? or optimized more often which lead to bad history? or any panda or penguing effect ? Waiting for the suggestions.

Can I turn off Google site links?
I thought at one time I had turned off the option to have Google sitelinks. I did this so that each of our pages that had a strong presence would occupy a unique slot on the first and second page of Google. This was important to us as we were battling some reputation management issues and trying to push out negative listings from the front page. Recently I noticed sitelinks were back up and when going into Google Webmaster Tools, I could figure out how to opt out of them. Any suggestions?

How to ask for forgiveness from the Google God?
Ok so maybe not ask for "forgiveness" because I am not sure what we did to get penalized. I believe our site is being penalized 1. most of our usual keywords are not ranked in their usual placements in the search results. 2. some of our keywords are listing the wrong pages as search results and 3. our search results are landing on pages 8 or 9 on Google (not 2 or 3 as before). This is an ecommerce site. How do we figure out what trigger the penalty (if at all) and how do we fix it so that we can get our ranking back (is that even possible)? Please advise - much help is needed!

Google indexing page with description
Hello, We rank fairly high for a lot of terms but Google is not indexing our descriptions properly. An example is with "arnold schwarzenegger net worth". http://www.google.ca/search?q=arnold+schwarzenegger+net+worth&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a When we add content, we throw up a placeholder page first. The content gets added with no body content and the page only contains the net worth amount of the celebrity. We then go back through and re-add the descriptions and profile bio shortly after. Will that affect how the pages are getting indexed and is there a way we can get Google to go back to the page and try to index the description so it doesn't just appear as a straight link? Thanks, Alex
