“How do I verify my website within Google Webmaster Tools in order to clear my reputation within Google search?”

A hacked website can be quite an eye opener for a struggling business

“This site may be hacked” may appear when Google believes a hacker may have changed some of the existing pages on a site or added new spam pages

“This site may harm your computer” may appear when Google believes malicious software has been installed on a website. This malware may cause computers viewing the website to install unwanted programs to steal passwords and credit card numbers, change search results or worst

What may result from your website being marked as compromised within Google

search?

Loss of business credibility

Folks who search for your business using Google search will likely not click through to your website

Prospective clients may never return to your site again, in fear they may be hacked themselves

Bing or McAfee SiteAdvisor, will likewise delist your website address in search

Your first course of action is to get your website cleaned of malware and secured by a competent, well regarded

Clearing your reputation in Google Search

1. Once signed into the “Search Console“, click on the “Security Issues” section to see details of sample URLs that might be infected.

If you see the sentence, “Currently, we haven’t detected any security issues with your site’s content.” then all is well there.

2. Next, click the “Search Traffic” section and choose “Manual Actions“. If you see the sentence, “No manual web-spam actions found.” then all is well there as well.
