      Hi fellows,

      I'm not so strange to SEO. I have been promoting our spiritual network through SEO and we have received great returns from it.

      I'm planning to promote an adult toy store via SEO. I have never done any adult store promoting before but I think there are a lot of down sides to it, such as:

      #1 When I search related keywords many porn websites show up; I assume it seems spammy to google's eye. Also most of the links that I will get are probably from porn websites due to relevancy.

      #2 Many of our returning customers are coming from retargeting but I assume there is no adult promotion via google display. Is that right? (It's not SEO related)

      I'm wondering to know if google is against adult content in any way?

      Any feedbacks are appreciated.

        Hi

        I don't really think that you will have hard time ranking up in google for adult toys store. My friend ranked #1 successfully for multiple keywords related to adult toys store. His target was local and his google page was ranking number 1 for certain terms.

        Also what i think is you don't really have to build backlinks from porn websites. You can create quality contents regarding your brand and then get quality backlinks to the store you are trying to rank. So what i think is you really don't have to worry.

          I have helped someone out with their TOY website and the keywords ranked just like all the other keywords,

          mind you the key words were not foul, smutty or offensive. Simply, key words.

          I've even seen "toys" for sale on ebay.

          I was able to help the client increase his search results against his competitors.

          Unless, everyone in the entire adult industry is being penalized...
