Temporary Tool

In the temporary tool section, you can request for removing specific verified URLs. The following are the two options present for removal requests.

  • First is the temporary remove URL option that hides the URL from Google Search results. The URL remains hidden for about six months with its cached copy of the page cleared.

SafeSearch Filtering

The SafeSearch filtering option assists in seeing why your content got blocked from appearing on search results. This section works fast and shows a history of pages that Google reported it as adult content. Using the SafeSearch Suggestion tool, you can submit those URLs again for the review. Now, if Google considers your material is not explicit then it will appear in regular search results, else it will be tagged as adult content.
