How will it affect my site if i link to a site with adult content?

[MattWheatcroft]

We are currently working on creating 2 sites for a company, one with no adult content, one with adult content. Will it affect the non adult content site if i link to the other one in terms of Google and being blocked by some internet providers.

When linking to another site you pass 'link-juice'. Consequently, you vouch for this website. By adding a nofollow tag to your link, you can avoid this. I'd recommend doing so if you suspect Google might penalize your non-adult website.

You can add a nofollow like so:

First off, I would definitely suggest not linking the two if the non-adult site is trying to rank for something not adult related.  You are the company you keep on the internet.

With that off my chest, what kind of content is going to be on the non-adult site?

[ResslerMotors]

I personally wouldn't even link to it.  Many people believe that Google still looks to see what's on the other end of a nofollow, so I wouldn't even test the waters by linking to the adult site at all.

Since the adult site will most likely wind up getting links from other adult sites and similar shady places, you'll be asking for trouble even if it's a brand new site you're setting up eventually it will naturally gather links even if you do not actively seek them out - so I would not associate your non adult site with your adult site.
