How do I know what sites I should be blocking?

What Sites Should I Be Blocking?

You always want to be ahead of the game when it comes to blocking websites. Do some searching on your own by searching in a search engine for innocent words that you wouldn't think would pop up harmful information. Will you be surprised with the search results for "Barbie"? What happens when you search for the latest CD by the rock band, "Bare Naked Ladies"?

Once you have a list of websites you feel are not suitable for a youngster, use the website blocking software to block those sites from showing in your web browser. You can also use keywords to block certain webpages as well, however you have to be careful when using this method as you may end up blocking a lot of potentially legitimate and safe sites.
