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.

Why some websites can rank the keywords they don't have in the page?
Hello guys, Yesterday, I used SEMrush to search for the keyword "branding agency" to see the SERP. The Liquidagency ranks 5th on the first page. So I went to their homepage but saw no exact keywords "branding agency", even in the page source. Also, I didn't see "branding agency" as a top anchor text in the external links to the page (from the report of SEMrush). I am an SEO newbie, can someone explain this to me, please? Thank you.

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!

Title tag showing in Google that we are not setting
Hello, We've noticed that when we do a specific search (print screen attached), that the business name and/or a completely different title is getting indexed into the search engine that we are not setting. Below is an example from the source code of how we're setting the title, this matches the 2nd listing circled in the attached image. The indexed title tag reflects "Animal Business Card Holders - Kyle Design" Any ideas or feedback on how this is happening? <title>Animal Business Card Cases in Pet, Insect and Wildlife Designstitle> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <meta name="description" content="Eye-catching business card holder cases personalized with custom animal designs for humane professionals and pet owners.
