Can "cuss words" hurt my ranking?

    For 7 months, I haven't put anything about "damn" or "crap" on my site because for some reason I thought it would bring me down in the rankings. While working on my site today, I thought "Why do I think this?" So I'm just wondering, although I'm 94.18% sure it doesn't hurt. Thanks :eek:

    Yeah, try searching for some of that words I think you will find that the top 10 use them quite a lot :rolleyes:

    The question I think should be if you have a site about kids toys and children, can you use cuss words then? I think that it might hurt then :)

    Cheers :cool:

    Well my ranking wasn't really what I was worried about, I've always considered my site an "all ages" site even though there is some kind of adult material. If I ever need to use it, I will.
