This tip shows you a way of getting past the Google block, with one of Google&#8217;s own features. A typical Google block looks something like this: <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_Captcha_Block1.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-292\" title=\"Google_Captcha_Block\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_Captcha_Block1.png?resize=300%2C136&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_Captcha_Block1.png?resize=300%2C136&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_Captcha_Block1.png?w=418&amp;ssl=1 418w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> In most cases, if you enter the text in the image, you will get past Google&#8217;s security measure, and you&#8217;ll be shown the results you were searching for. Google uses this &#8220;Captcha&#8221; to protect itself from automated robot programs trying to steal data from Google. However, if you are user of Google&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.googleguide.com\/advanced_operators_reference.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">advanced commands<\/a>, you get issued this Captcha too. In the worst cases, Google stops serving you results altogether and presents you with this:<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Google_Total_block1.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-291\" title=\"Google_Total_block\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Google_Total_block1.png?resize=248%2C129&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"248\" height=\"129\"><\/a>This is a severe Google block, with no way to get around it. There wont be a Captcha image either, there wont be any text to enter.\u00a0 At this point, you cannot perform ANY Google search, and you have to wait at least a couple of hours before Google service is resumed. Solution? try the <strong>Secured version of Google:<\/strong>\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.Google.com\" rel=\"noopener\">http<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>s<\/strong><\/span>:\/\/www.Google.com<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_SSL1.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-293\" title=\"Google_SSL\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_SSL1.png?resize=300%2C120&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_SSL1.png?resize=300%2C120&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Google_SSL1.png?w=682&amp;ssl=1 682w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> What&#8217;s the difference? It&#8217;s the same Google search, served to you over a secured connection. The security levels are the same ones used by your Bank&#8217;s online transaction system. This helps Google keep away unwanted intruders. The results that you get from the Secured Version is exactly the same as the Regular version. <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Secured-Google-vs-Regular-Google1.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-296\" title=\"Secured Google vs Regular Google\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Secured-Google-vs-Regular-Google1.png?resize=300%2C144&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Secured-Google-vs-Regular-Google1.png?resize=300%2C144&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Secured-Google-vs-Regular-Google1.png?resize=1024%2C494&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Secured-Google-vs-Regular-Google1.png?w=1644&amp;ssl=1 1644w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> So next time you get blocked, use the Secured Version <a href=\"https:\/\/www.Google.com\" rel=\"noopener\">http<strong>s<\/strong>:\/\/www.Google.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>PS: In case you need tools to build candidate pipelines from Google and other search engines, we have them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.egrabber.com\/downloads-buynow.html\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-1117 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/RG-Blog-Ad-Import-Resumes-and-Profiles.png?resize=675%2C105&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"RG-Blog-Ad-Import-Resumes-and-Profiles\" width=\"675\" height=\"105\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/RG-Blog-Ad-Import-Resumes-and-Profiles.png?w=675&amp;ssl=1 675w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.egrabber.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/RG-Blog-Ad-Import-Resumes-and-Profiles.png?resize=300%2C46&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you use Google a lot for your prospect-list \/ candidate-list building \/ for sourcing candidates, you will encounter a &#8220;Google Block&#8221; or a &#8220;Google Captcha&#8221;.
