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.

Making Filtered Search Results Pages Crawlable on an eCommerce Site
Hi Moz Community! Most of the category & sub-category pages on one of our client's ecommerce site are actually filtered internal search results pages. They can configure their CMS for these filtered cat/sub-cat pages to have unique meta titles & meta descriptions, but currently they can't apply custom H1s, URLs or breadcrumbs to filtered pages. We're debating whether 2 out of 5 areas for keyword optimization is enough for Google to crawl these pages and rank them for the keywords they are being optimized for, or if we really need three or more areas covered on these pages as well to make them truly crawlable (i.e. custom H1s, URLs and/or breadcrumbs)…what do you think? Thank you for your time & support, community!

Can a website be punished by panda if content scrapers have duplicated content?
I've noticed recently that a number of content scrapers are linking to one of our websites and have the duplicate content on their web pages. Can content scrapers affect the original website's ranking? I'm concerned that having duplicated content, even if hosted by scrapers, could be a bad signal to Google. What are the best ways to prevent this happening? I'd really appreciate any help as I can't find the answer online!

Location appearing on search result. how can this be achieved?
I'm pretty sure this site is not doing any SEO but i think what made them no. 1 is the location. I already tried adding a google publisher tag to my site that points to my google page which contains my address but i still can't have the location appear.. here's a screenshot of the search result that i want to achieve: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tbdv3121rrs6zp5/Screen Shot 2013-04-15 at 9.39.30 AM.png Screen%20Shot%202013-04-15%20at%209.39.30%20AM.png

Rel= Author : Google suggests that we include this. Can i link to my FB profile
There have been several reference on how Google is trying to build author profiles so that it can effectively measure the authors authority based on the Rel=Author. I quite liked this idea , but my site is a user generated content website. So how can i leverage this ? . One thing which i was thinking was if its a good idea to link to the customers Facebook profile , plan to collect this during sign up.
