Blacklisted By Google

Webstuff 17 February 2009 | Comments

This is one of the worst things that could happen to anyone who owns a site. My friend has been having some issues with a website I helped build for him a while back. What happened was about a month ago. He messaged me stating that his website couldn’t be entered to due to some malware distribution problem.

I checked back with the hosting provider and he said that I may have to replace all the files because any of them could’ve been infected. Well I removed all the files but it still stated that site was still considered as a blacklisted site by google.

Then I tried another thing. So here’s what you do when you have a website that is blacklisted by Google. 

  1. First of all go straight to your Google Account here at this address https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageAccount  
  2. Sign in for the Webmaster Tools

  3. Add a site that you want to send in for reviewing. Once you do you need to verify the site. To verify a site it’s very easy to do.

    Click on the link asking you to verify the site and from there select the method of how you want to verify it. I prefer uploading a html file.

  4. Once that’s done send a review to Google stating the reason the review. Requst for the site to be unblocked here. 
     
  5. While you wait for their actions to unblacklist a site. Go into your ftp account and either remove all the files or clear up the ones that are possibly infected. Upload the files from your computer to your ftp again. 
Now all you have to do is wait. Surprising I did all this yesterday and today my friends site it now back to normal and running smoothly. If you ever have a site blacklisted just contact google immediately via you google account. Don’t waste time doing it, you never know when your site is your business. :)

    m a true Bruce Lee fan, and Im wondering why they are not picking someone who truly represents the fight genre. Bruce was famous for bringing real non special effects fighting to the screen. In my opinion he revolutionized how fighting on the big screen is seen today, he basically put the John Wayne punch to pasture. Why didn't they pick someone disney acting auditions who actually can fight like Jet Li or even the MMA Champion Cung Le.

    Good job figuring this out. This is great information to have. I'll pass this link on to a friend with the same issues as your friend. So far none of my sites have been blocked by Google but for some reason Ask.com refuses to acknowledge me. I'm just glad it's not anyone important. :P
  • hey not bad....
    I can use this if i hit this problem, *touch wood*
  • that's a very good advice. thanks for sharing!
  • No prob babe.. people should know it's not difficult to get their site back on track, just very hassling
  • wah!! so techy... :D
  • It's not that techy la. Quite straightforward :P
