Notes regarding DMCA.com Protection Page indexing:

  1. However, most new web browsers cache the badge and so it may not be actually requesting the badge from each page that you visit as your browser is likely caching our protection badge, therefore not queuing the page for for crawling/indexing.
  2. With DMCA.com's Free Protection Badge service indexing is also page traffic dependent. Some pages may index slower if they do not have user traffic. To test simply refresh a low / no traffic page and check the index.

Confirm it works!

Once the protection badge code has been placed on your website / web pages, click on the badge to confirm the link to your DMCA.com Website Certificate works. It is quite likely the first time you click on the badge the Website Certificate will return with an error message and status "Unavailable". However simply refresh (or hit f5) on your webpage and click the protection badge again.

Your DMCA.com Website Certificate will remain "Unavailable" if the DMCA.com Protection Badge Security crawler is unable to do the following:

  1. access the page
  2. parse the source code of that page
  3. locate a badge on the page
  4. get a HTTP 200 response from your site

A tool like Fetch as Google for sites can be used to test whether or not the DMCA.com Protection Badge Security crawler is able to locate the badge code placed on your website.

  1. place a webpage URL where the badge HTML has been added (or should be added) into the Google crawler utility
  2. click submit, you should see a result of your page how it would appear to Google's site crawler. This can be used to test whether or not your website server is responding with the right headers and content.
