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

i have never seem this before

What website changes (technical) SEOs can ignore confidently? Google's perspective!
Hi community members, I am looking after SEO at our company and there are lots of changes happening about our website; especially technical changes. It's hard for me to look after every deployment of the website like change of server location, etc. We generally agree that every change related to website must be notified by SEO to understand the ranking fluctuation and how search engines welcome them. I just wonder what technical deployments of a website I could confidently ignore to save time and give a go ahead to technical team without interrupting or waiting for my approval. Thanks

Multiple sites using same text - how to avoid Google duplicate content penalty?
Hi Mozers, my client located in Colorado is opening a similar (but not identical) clinic in California. Will Google penalize the new California site if we use text from our website that features his Colorado office? He runs the clinic in CO and will be a partner of the clinic in CA, so the CA clinic has his "permission" to use his original text. Eventually he hopes to go national, with multiple sites utilizing essentially the same text. Will Google penalize the new CA site for plagiarism and/or duplicate content? Or is there a way to tell Google, "hey Google, this new clinic is not ripping off my text"?

Crawl-delay: 1
Disallow: /wp-content/plugins/
Disallow: /wp-admin/ Also when I look at "blocked resources" in the webmaster tools this is showing to be blocked: http://brownieairservice.com/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/js/jquery.form.min.js?ver=3.51.0-2014.06.20It looks like the form plug in is giving the issues but I don't understand this. There are no site errors or URL errors so I don't understand what this crawl delay means or how to fix it. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you0 -
Google Malware Message
*Update 9/19/2013 So I finally have more details the site is a joomla site and is hosted on godaddy. The weird thing is the malware message only appears when browsing the site in chrome it comes up fine in internet explorer any specific reason why that would be? Also we noticed that on the joomla template there were about 6 scripts after the tag that were adult site related and have nothing to do with our site, any ideas? I appreciate all/any suggestions and or advice. Thank You. I had a client recently pay about $300 for a site design that she hosted on go daddy. This is the site www.shirianfabric.com can anyone tell me why this would happen its only been live for about three months and out of no where we get this message? My client is thinking maybe the designer inserted some kind of malicious code?as he is now charging a couple hundred to fix the issue. Is there any way to look further into this? Im not sure a webmasters account was ever set up for this site so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Is it too late to change an IP from the linking c-block?
My main web development company is linked to many of our clients and our clients link back to us using footer links back. We obviously have a high volume of c-block relations. If I change my main site's location to a different server will it make any difference or is it too late?
