Hi Guys I have been doing some research and now come to the concluson I have been hijacked by this proxy server. http://www.tylerschnaidt.com/blocked/nph-index.pl/010110A/http/ www.mysite.com http://www.tylerschnaidt.com/blocked/nph-index.pl/010110A/http ................................................../nph-index.pl The nph go where the dots are not sure why it wont show url Any ideas how to get this shut down
Here you go, https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/spamreport?hl=en , fill this form and send it to google.
You should check it out http://www.seofaststart.com/blog/google-proxy-hacking I implented the script by Jaimie Sirovich and it works. It shows noindex,nofollow for everyone except googlebot. check it out: http://www.seoegghead.com/blog/seo/how-to-guide-prevent-google-proxy-hacking-p210.html
Same proxy that my site has been hijacked by. I have blocked the IP 3 days ago (after great advice from Sweetfunny) but my rankings are still penalised. Did you get a penalty yet? For now: Block the IP or domain from your control panel on your host. File a SPAM report from Webmaster tools ASAP Pray
Thanks Guys I just did a Google spam report on this guy I also reported him to some of his affillates as I know the big casinos in the UK at least have no tollerance policy on spam. Would be cool if he had some money frozen
Hi Shyboy Yep I got a penalty and he also hijacked 3 other sites I own shame he dont live around the corner I would pay him a visit for sure.
The problem i have is that the url that has hijacked my page has not been cached since 9th of Feb. Dont know how much longer it would take to cache it but i am playing with the idea of placing a link in my sig here to the page in the hope that it will get spidered quicker. (now that the IP is blocked). Does anyone have any idea whether that will work?
same here one my sites has been hijacked and when I search domainname it ranks no where but when I search domainname.com it is indexed.
I use this script to validate the crawlers of the three major search engines <?php $ua = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']; if(stristr($ua, 'msnbot') || stristr($ua, 'Googlebot') || stristr($ua, 'Yahoo! Slurp')){ $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $hostname = gethostbyaddr($ip); if(!preg_match("/\.googlebot\.com$/", $hostname) &&!preg_match("/search\.live\.com$/", $hostname) &&!preg_match("/crawl\.yahoo\.net$/", $hostname)) { $block = TRUE; header("HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden"); exit; } else { $real_ip = gethostbyname($hostname); if($ip!= $real_ip){ $block = TRUE; header("HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden"); exit; } else { $block = FALSE; } } } ?> PHP:
Well, to answer my own question, I have added the link to my sig last night, and lo-and-behold, the proxy was crawled and removed from the index for the terms on my site. Unfortunately, my site still has the penalty. I am completely lost on what to do next. Any updates from your end phoneguy?
Nope I sent the spam report just have to sit back and wait. I only found out I had been hijacked while checking copyscape.com for duplicate content as I had to file 2 DMCA complaints late last year. Why is it some guys are so lazy they have to steal from us honest webmasters.
I have a bad feeling that if you leave it to google you'll have to wait real long. have you lookd at http://www.seofaststart.com/blog/google-proxy-hacking
Wow thanks too Zangief That was some read What I dont understand is why Yahoo and MSN can see right through this proxy and G cant.
* start with blocking the ip of the that proxy * report it google i think these are the think that you can do
Hi Guys I made a ht.access file like this order allow,deny deny from 64.72.116.208 deny from 88.105.61.105 allow from all will this do the trick ?
Well, I have already posted above the necessary solution which won't let your site proxified, but it seems nobody has recognised this Implementing a php script is much better solution than listing a lot of IPs into th .htaccess in my opinion, but of course it is your choice
I dont have access to the server I can only protect the individual site I have emailed the server owner but hes in Greece probably drunk under an olive tree Im not that hot on code Is your script for the server or can I place it in my header. I am gratefull for your help
