Rich Snippets on Adult Content
-
Hi,I understand that rich snippets can't be used to promote adult-related content, however, what does Google specifically class as 'adult content'?We sale sex toys, lingerie and accessories, like lubes etc. I understand that sex toys may not be supported, however, I wouldn't see an issue with adding rich snippets/schema markup to the lingerie side of the site.After doing some research, it seems as if Amazon have rich snippets on adult related content, including cock ring products and lingerie. If we add schema markup - will Google simply not display the snippets, or will they penalise the site?Thanks!

Hi there.
Google won't penalize you for that, it simply won't display it, if it's against their rules.
