Kind of sad news, google webmaster responded that they will not index my website. Basically they said it’s still bad, doesn’t meet their guideline to reindex again. I guess the hack was pretty bad, tons of redirect link. It will take a lot of effort, and I think it will take more effort to fix this than to create a new blog or website start from scratch again I guess.

What I’m thinking doing is to move my contents to another domain that I have. Block all bots, disable crawling from all search engines to this website. Then on my new site, restore all contents again to see if it work, see if google will crawl it.

Now I know that google is smart enough to know if I’ve taken the contents from another site put it on another site. However what I’m doing is not really that, I’m deleting a bad site that does not have any contents on google index, and restore the contents to my new site. Let see if that work. Soon say bye bye to this blog, I’m starting a new one 🙂

Got this message below after submitting a request for google to reconsider indexing 1a20.com website again. It will take several weeks look like it.

We’ve received a request from a site owner to reconsider how we index the following site: http://www.1a20.com/
We’ll review the site. If we find that it’s no longer in violation of our Webmaster Guidelines, we’ll reconsider our indexing of the site. Please allow several weeks for the reconsideration request. We do review all requests, but unfortunately we can’t reply individually to each request.
For reference, here is the full text of the original reconsideration request that was submitted for your site:
“My blog was hacked, a lot of html files were generated in the root directory and other public folders. I deleted all the files. Reinstalled WordPress Blog, restored Database, installed malware virus scan, installed additional firewall. Tested it, looks clean. I used “Hacked Sites Troubleshooter” just now to validate and it passed all green. Please help me reindex site. Thank you”

Turns out, google webmaster has tools to check to see if your website is clean after being hacked. It call “Hacked Sites Troubleshooter”, you’ll be going through the trouble shooter step by step to see if your is ready for being reindexed again on google search engine.

After the “Hacked Sites Troubleshooter” completed, I can submit “Request for review” but Google said it will take sometime. Maybe a week, a month, I don’t know. Will see.

I guess I learned the hard way. I should have harden my web server security, should have update my antivirus ensure it’s working properly and real time proactively.

Last night, I spent a little bit more time on checking up the files and directories for wordpress to see if malwares or virus still exist, and indeed it does. I continue to have tons of links created html russian redirect websites look like it, I didn’t take a look at it real close, instead I deleted all garbage files. I’m thinking of doing a complete reinstall of wordpress and then harden wordpress prevent it from harder to get hacked.

I guess time to spend some more time on reading how to harden wordpress blog. Maybe this is the first step I need to do before I ask google to index my website blog again.

As of today, my website blog still not showing up on google search engine yet, although it’s showing on bing.

What I did recently was enabled Google Webmaster tools account and started to follow the direction from google to get website listed on google search engine again. I updated the wordpress sitemap plugin, and notified google of the sitemap. Then I went to Google Webmaster tools and forced  sitemap refresh on my blog, but it’s giving some redirect message, not really understanding what that mean.

Look like I will need to read more on how to resolve this issue. This is after I got hacked with my wordpress blog showing tons of redirect link multiplied in size directing traffic to some spam website.

Hackers hacked my website, from defacing to loading bogus scam fraud information on my wordpress blog website. It’s been a while and now it’s time to work on getting it back to get google search engine to start crawling again.

As of now, August 31st 2015, google search engine contain no link at all to my blog of 1a20.com, checked by search for site:1a20.com This was the result a hack attack, loading my web server with massive bogus links and redirect link other website, hurting my server and the quality of my blog showing up on google search engine.

I managed to get a fresh install of the web server wordpress to restore my blog original data linkes DB and so on. I did know of the issue until it was too late, weeks later, because I didn’t check my website as often as I should be. I learned it the hard way, and now I’ve done a few things including checking for defacing and changes to certain area of the website to notify my if anything changes so that I can quickly prevent deeper hack that is currently in progress, I’m sure it will help, but impossible to prevent a hack starting, just need to know hack started and I can shut down the site and restore it immediately.

So today will be my first day, trying to research and get my blog showing up on google search engine again. What I did was enrolled to google webmaster and did some analysis and enabled the robot.txt to look for my site again,

Look like finally I received message from TeamViewer that my account have suspicious log in attempt from a different location or devices. This is over a month ago when I got hacked, my teamviewer account was hacked to be exact and the hacker login into all my connected devices computer and tried to steal download data and information, especially all my Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoin wallet. Luckily I found out about it at 2AM in the morning and had to stayed up for almost 1/2 an hour to transfer all my Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoin to new offline wallet then change all Teamviewer accoutn password. Today I finally enabled two factors authentication, and appears to be working, so even if the hacker have my password, they will not be able to login with my 2nd authentication which I have with me all the time and most likely cannot be replicated.
