IP block in Google
-
Our office has a number of people performing analysis and research on keyword positions, volume, competition etc.
We have 1 external static IP address. We installed the static IP so we can filter out our visits in Google Analytics. However by 10 AM we get impssible CAPTCHA's or even get blocked in Google.
Do you have any experience with such an issue? Any solutions you can recommend?
Any help would be appreciated!
-
yup, i know that problem. too many requests to Google from the same IP. The IPs from which you query Google should frequently change, otherwise you'll get blocked.

Speed (even when set at slow) is not always the problem but a regular timing of queries which is unlike humans who operate randomly.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, we do use a rank tracker (seo powersuite). We've put it at its lowest crawl speed. We're 3 people using the tool, not even simultaneously.
Great visual, btw. Guess I'll join you in that category (proudly though).

I start at 8 AM and 2 hours later we see the captcha's getting to a ridiculous level. The IP doesn't seem to be on a black list. No, the IP never change.
I get the captcha's as a result of using Rank Tracker by Seo Powersuite. However, it is at it's lowest crawl level. But you can imagine a team of several people tracking ranks that is raises flags at Google. What would you suggest we do as a team to avoid this?
-
You are likely using tools like SEO Elite etc which send fast queries. This type of software can be set to slower hit rate. I doubt you guys search that fast to be booted without use of software. Check your plugins and software - that would be my first recommendation.
I do get this from time to time when I try to hack URLs to death... but it only happens occasionally
-
Is this happening every day at 10AM? What happens between midnight and 10AM? Before midnight? Is this static IP on a blacklist? Does this static IP change over night? Where are you getting these 'impossible CAPTCHAs'? Where is 'Google blocking you'?

Thank you. Very helpful

Does Google follow links inside a <noscript>tag?</noscript>
I'm looking at making an embedable calculator and asking users to embed it to their website. I had the idea of using javascript to include the calculator which would also conatain a text link back to my site in order to gain some back links. If it's possible Google won't see the link (as they may not execute the javascript), is it safe to place the link in the <noscript>tag? If so, Will it be indexed and will Page Rank be passed?</span></p> <p>Thanks in advance for your answers. </p> <p>Anthony</p> <p><span style="color: #5e5e5e;"><br /></span></p></noscript>
