Hey all - Quick question from somebody who doesnt know a lot about SEO, etc. On my blog, www.chrisblogging.com, I am viewing the source and notice a lot of unrelated content after the <body> tag. The content is prescription drug based, and is effecting my AdSense ads, etc. Could somebody take the time to look at this real quick and tell me how to rid of this content. Im sure its an easy fix, I hope, but as mentioned I am lost when it comes to SEO stuff. Thanks in advance!
It is happening because of hacking your site, you should care about security of your site. Any other content or code is looking because of putting code in source and uploaded to server.
Hey guys - I deleted that prescription drug content from the source, but now there is cell phone content showing up. Can anybody give me an idea of why this is happening? Where this could be coming from?
Apparently someone hacked your site. I have not used wordpress so I do not know the inners of it, but you should probably check the source code, possibly index.php (I am guessing) and remove the offensive code. In any case, change your password and protect admin area by htaccess afterwards. Another potential source could be the theme itself. Have you changed to it recently?
What version of wordpress are you running? Always make sure you have the latest version... There are some security issues with older versions of wp where it is possible to inject malicious code in to a wp blog.
Thanks guys - I cleaned it up and upgraded to the latest version of WP. Hopefully that ll fix the security loop...
