BPS does not block Google or any of the other Search Engines. You can check and verify this by using your Google Webmaster Tools account and using the Crawl >>> Fetch as Google tool.
If you have added additional custom .htaccess code then it is possible that your custom code is blocking Google. So check that additional custom .htaccess code if the Fetch as Google tool says there is a problem.
BPS blocks HEAD Requests by default. Online HTTP Status checking tools typically make a HEAD Request to your website. If you would like to allow HEAD Requests on your website then click the link below.

Hi,
I installed bulletproof on a site and now I can’t access it whatsoever and I get 403 Forbidden error. I uninstalled the plugin in the file manager of the server and I still get the same message. Please help!

FTP to your website and change the root .htaccess file permissions back to 644 permissions. If the site comes back up then your Host does not allow you to lock your root .htaccess file. Go to the BPS htaccess File Editor tab page and click the Turn AutoLock Off button.
If the site does not come back up after changing the root .htaccess file permissions then delete the root .htaccess file and the wp-admin .htaccess files. Your Host does not allow you to use .htaccess files on your website.

@download Converter – Were your questions answered?
@tressgirl – Is the issue resolved?
Yes, thank you so much for your good support.
@aitpro –Hi, thanks for you prompt reply. Unfortunately, this turned out to be a nightmare. I did as you suggested and changed the .htacess file permission to 644. Nothing happened. The hosting company helped, and the site was up. However, if I try to put the name of it in the browser, or even in google search–holistichealthandnutrition.net, site isn’t there. It does come up however if I google the name of the person who owns the site. It was fine before. Very frustrating. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

It comes up fine for me when I add the website URL in my Browser’s address bar. If you are talking about coming up in Google Searches/ranking then that is a completely different thing. That would have to do with Search Engine Optimization.
