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.

After hack and remediation, thousands of URL's still appearing as 'Valid' in google search console. How to remedy?
I'm working on a site that was hacked in March 2019 and in the process, nearly 900,000 spam links were generated and indexed. After remediation of the hack in April 2019, the spammy URLs began dropping out of the index until last week, when Search Console showed around 8,000 as "Indexed, not submitted in sitemap" but listed as "Valid" in the coverage report and many of them are still hack-related URLs that are listed as being indexed in March 2019, despite the fact that clicking on them leads to a 404. As of this Saturday, the number jumped up to 18,000, but I have no way of finding out using the search console reports why the jump happened or what are the new URLs that were added, the only sort mechanism is last crawled and they don't show up there. How long can I expect it to take for these remaining urls to also be removed from the index? Is there any way to expedite the process? I've submitted a 'new' sitemap several times, which (so far) has not helped. Is there any way to see inside the new GSC view why/how the number of valid URLs in the indexed doubled over one weekend?

Can you disallow links via Search Console?
Hey guys, Is it possible in anyway to nofollow links via search console (not disavow) but just nofollow external links pointing to your site? Cheers.

Set Placeholder Page ASAP or Wait For Full Website?
It can take some time for a new business website to get picked up by all the search engines and indexed. Let's assume it's going to take a month to build your new full-fledged business website. Would it be advantageous in the mean time to immediately launch the domain with an introductory website using a template site so you might have just two pages, a home page with logo, title, brief description of pages, a couple images, etc and a contact page. Would this help give the site a "jump start" on being indexed? Or could that do more harm than good by putting up something "quick & dirty" versus the complete website with much more content, that has been SEO optimized?

How long does google take to show the results in SERP once the pages are indexed ?
Hi...I am a newbie & trying to optimize the website www.peprismine.com. I have 3 questions - A little background about this : Initially, close to 150 pages were indexed by google. However, we decided to remove close to 100 URLs (as they were quite similar). After the changes, we submitted the NEW sitemap (with close to 50 pages) & google has indexed those URLs in sitemap. 1. My pages were indexed by google few days back. How long does google take to display the URL in SERP once the pages get indexed ? 2. Does google give more preference to websites with more number of pages than those with lesser number of pages to display results in SERP (I have just 50 pages). Does the NUMBER of pages really matter ? 3. Does removal / change of URLs have any negative effect on ranking ? (Many of these URLs were not shown on the 1st page) An answer from SEO experts will be highly appreciated. Thnx !
