Why Is My Website Blacklisted in Google?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

The reason why websites are blacklisted is the injection of malware affected code without the permission of websites\u2019 owners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some simple ways to verify the blacklisting of your website:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Manual Method for Already Indexed websites:<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

If your website\u2019s pages are already indexed by Google, simply perform this search on Google<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSite:domainname.com\u201d.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

For example, let\u2019s search Site:1-grid<\/span><\/a> on Google.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

If no results are returned then there is a good chance that your website is hacked.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Using Site Check Software\u2019s:<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Visit GEEK FLARE\u00a0<\/span><\/a>, enter your website URL and test it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Check it with Google:<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Use Google\u2019s Safe Browsing Diagnostic Tool<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 To use the tool, just append a URL to the end of \u00a0http:\/\/www.google.com\/safebrowsing\/diagnostic?site<\/a>=\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, to test this site, you would enter http:\/\/www.google.com\/safebrowsing\/diagnostic?site=https:\/\/1-grid.com<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
