WEBMASTER console: increase in the number of URLs we were blocked from crawling due to authorization permission errors.
-
Hi guys,I received this warning in my webmaster console: "Google detected a significant increase in the number of URLs we were blocked from crawling due to authorization permission errors." So i went to "Crawl Errors" section and i found such errors under "Access denied" status:
?page_name=Cheap+Viagra+Gold+Online&id=471
?page_name=Cheapest+Viagra+Us+Licensed+Pharmacies&id=1603
and many happy URLs like these. Does anybody know what this is and where it comes from?
Thanks in advance!
-
Thank you Tom!

Hi
to removed any chance of infection and I am not telling you that I am 100% sure it's infected
You must be certain that the regional infection was removed. If it was not and you had links created by a third party other than yourself you are better off getting it completely cleaned
use Sucuri.net to remove any chance of a hack.
Just type this into Google
- ?page_name=Cheap+Viagra+Gold+Online&id=471
- ?page_name=Cheapest+Viagra+Us+Licensed+Pharmacies&id=1603

Screaming frog SEO to create the site map

Hello Thomas,
I really appreciate your help! You said i can look at your site's structure. What is your site address?
Unfortunately, i still don't know what i need to do in order to remove those pharma hack from my site. If you know where to point me to get the answer, i'll be very grateful.
Also, what tool you used to generate this report http://crawl.blueprintmarketing.com/projects/reports/215533?ro=75ad0c6e4afacc428b553d449dfd281f82ec2ad6 ?
Also, what tool you used to create XML site map?
Thanks
-
No site map from checking multiple configurations of XML site maps and coming up with nothing no redirects either e.g. /sitemap_index.xml might exist separately or redirect to /sitemap.xml
http://www.davidandsonsjewelers.com/sitemap.xml shows a 404
Tool's
deepcrawl.com https://varvy.com/mobile/ & https://varvy.com/tools/
-
detect mobile issues
-
If I were you I would look at my site structure make sure that it was built in a certain manner for the right reasons.
If your traffic is all right you really do not want to change the site that much. If you do change the site change it slowly.
( A great example of this is how FireHost.com it is becoming Armor.com)
the tools I used to find out whether or not you had a site map primarily was deepcrawl.com
to detect mobile issues
https://varvy.com/mobile/ & https://varvy.com/tools/

I used screaming frog to create a XML site map for you here
I would definitely add an XML site map.
Sincerely,
Thomas
-
Also, do you say that the mobile site is blocked? Also, how do you see that the site doesn't have XML? What tool shows you all this info?
Thanks
-
Hi Thomas,
I really appreciate your help! Can you advise me what i should do? I see all these reports but i don't know how i need to clean the site.
Thank you!

As you are showing certain URLs that are definitely Pharma hack their are certain things Sucuri is unable to detect because of it being a front-end tool not the PHP tool that would be needed for the two-part WordPress and PHP version of your site.
Just type this into Google
- ?page_name=Cheap+Viagra+Gold+Online&id=471
- ?page_name=Cheapest+Viagra+Us+Licensed+Pharmacies&id=1603

some of you are links are really not supposed to be there
Here is your report please use the URL below to navigate the entire report.
All of you are URLs are relative to the most part that should be fixed. You have a Java redirect that definitely needs to be fixed.

You have roughly 108 indexed URLs according to Google
https://marketing.grader.com/report/www.davidandsonsjewelers.com/overall
you do not have an XML site map unfortunately I found that out in the first five minutes but you can also find out if these things using
https://moz.com/researchtools/crawl-test
upon a quick check with another tool I found
http://i.imgur.com/Y60WnIc.png
I love deepcrawl however your site is not large you can learn a lot about it with
http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/ free
I hope this is a help, with analytics access and webmaster tool like this I cannot obviously give you a much better picture.
Tom

I will run the audit now sorry for the delay
-
-
The best way to solve this problem is to use
Or http://screamingfrog.co.uk Seo spider
If you give me the URL I will do it quick check for you.

Thank you Thomas,
My site is clean though according to sucuri. I spoke to owner of this website and they said that they were hacked in the past and they blocked those pages themselves. So now google detects those pages again? Or what exactly is happening? Anybody knows?
Thanks
-
Remember that not every URL is in Googles index. It does not mean that your back link is not in
https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/
You should very quickly make sure that your website is not still completely full of malware like it sounds it is
use this tool to determined what has happened to your site if it is infected it is free.
If it is hacked as I believe it may be dependent on what you have described I would then purchase the malware removal and web application firewall
https://sucuri.net/website-antivirus/
if you would like a much more secure hosting environment https://armor.com is the best.
Once you have removed your site from the blacklists and removed all the bad where/malware make sure to crawl it with Google in Webmaster tools using fetch as a Google bot
your nightmare should be short-lived sorry to hear that your site was hacked hopefully this will get you back on track quickly.

Hi Dirk,
In webmaster tools if i click one by one those links, i can see "Linked from" URLs. There are URLs like this:
http://schwagginwagon.com/?page_name=Buying+Tadalis+SX+Safely+No+Prescription+Tadalis+SX&id=1810
and also there is one URL is coming from my domain. Not sure what it means.
I went through every single URL in Google index but all of them are normal URLs. Nothing related to spam. Any ideas?
Thanks
-
Try to do a search of type viagra site:yourdomain.com - and see if there are any pages of suspicious nature that are listed.
In the crawl error section in webmaster tools you could also check where these url's are coming from (external/internal links)
If your site is hacked - you can find more info here http://www.google.com/webmasters/hacked/ on what to do next.
rgds,
Dirk

Hello Dirk,
Thank you for fast reply! I thought it too right away. So all of these URLs are forbidden when i try to access them. This is the message from google webmaster tools "Googlebot couldn't crawl your URL because your server either requires authentication to access the page, or it is blocking Googlebot from accessing your site."
Any ideas? Thanks
-
Hi
On first sight I would guess your site has been hacked - do these url's exist when you try them?
Dirk

Manual Webspam Error. Same Penalty on all sites on Webmaster Tools account.
My URL is: www.ebuzznet.comToday when i checked webmaster tools under manual spam section. I got Manual spam and reason was Thin content with little or no added value. Then I checked other sites from same webmaster tools account, there are 11 sites, all of them received same manual action. I never received any mail, no notification on site messages section regarding this manual action. I just need confirmation whether it is something to do with any error in webmaster tools or all of the sites really received manual spam actions.Most of the article on sites are above 500 words, quality content (no spun or copied).Looking for suggestions, answers

Why is google webmaster tools ignoring my url parameter settings
I have set up several url parameters in webmaster tools that do things like select a specific products colour or size. I have set the parameter in google to "narrows" the page and selected to crawl no urls but in the duplicate content section each of these are still shown as being 2 pages with the same content. Is this just normal, i.e. showing me that they are the same anyway or is google deliberately ignoring my settings (which I assume it does when they are sure they know better or think I have made a mistake)?

Blocking Google from Crawling Parameters
Hi guys: What is the best way to keep Google from crawling certain urls with parameters? I used the setting in Webmaster Tools, but that doesn't seem to be helping at all. Can I use robots.txt or some other method? Thanks!
