Penalized In Google ?
-
Hello Guy´s.
Im terrible sad because we make an amazing SEO job for this client:
And the website was hacked..
Message from the hosting platform:
"It would appear that malicious individuals have found a way to upload spam
pages as well as backdoors to your site(s). We
have disabled the page(s) in question (via removing their permissions, e.g..
chmod) until you are able to address this matter."Result: we loose all our SERP
Somebody of yours was in a similar situation ?
Notes:
-
I was on Google Webmaster an anything seem to be normal.
-
The domain was relative new, maybe a late sandbox efect ?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Matias

This really sounds like the hosting company moving blame to you.
Why not change hosting, i would do it quickly.
Do you have a image upload? seing the pages are in your image folder.
If so you can add some code to make sure it is actualy images that you are uploading.

Hi Alan.
I think they entered through weak folder permissions. They upload html content in our "image" folder.
The website still in Google index but, we loose more than 50 positions.

Thanks

Sounds like your hoster has a problem not you.
How aree you to blame, what on the pages that they blocked? forms that allow html input (html editor)?

High ranking nationally but not locally via google
A website I am working on is ranked very well in all tracked keywords at a national level, but not from a local standpoint via google. I find it weird that the site is on the first page if you search from many other states/towns/locations but not locally. Looked on Google Search Console and couldn't see any link to why this is happening. Figured we would clear out the htaccess for any redirect issues and hope it fixes it. Suggestions please? Never seen google do this. It is strange.

Does google give any advantage to Webmaster tools verified sites?
Hello friends, I am seeing a strange pattern. i register 2 new domain and make sites on them and add no backlinks nothing only put content and did on page seo right. After 1month of google indexing. both sites are not showing in search for the targeted keywords, but as soon as i add them to Google Webmaster tools they both automatically comes to the 16th and 24th number for their specific keywords. So my question is does Google give any advantage to sites which are verified and added into its webmaster tools in terms of seo or authority?

Massive Google Search Spam
We have come to know that one of competitors of our client is spamming Google search results on massive scale. If we search with keywords like "iphone spy apps" , "text messages spy " etc then most of results from 3rd or 4th page onwards show totally irrelevant sites but when we click on those results/pages then all redirect to either http://topspysoft.com/ OR http://www.mspy.com/ . They have been doing it on massive scale for last few months against hundreds of queries and populating hundreds of search results. If use some country specific Google site then again hundreds of results come from totally irrelevant country specific domains (au,nz,uk etc) and they all redirect to topspysoft.com or mspy.com. Can you please tell how they are doing it and how they are able to do it on such a massive scale without getting noticed by Google ? Is there any way to report this issue to Google as the current only allows one link ? Following are some of the spam urls to give you an idea www.crcincva.com/doc/20-best-iphone-spy-apps/

Is Google now punishing anchor text?
Hi All, I was just wondering if Google is starting to punish anchor text links? I've noticed that one of my clients domains has slightly reduced and they have slipped a few places in rankings for a key term since. I found this bizarre as the last few links I built were both relevant and strong but I did use an anchor text? Any feedback would be useful, I'm slightly confused here?
