Hi,

Yesterday, my server get hacked and hackers are inserted javascript badwares. This script was spreading malicious softwares on user system. After few hours Google has detected the same and marked our site as "THIS SITE MAY HARM YOUR COMPUTER" in search result (SERP). My traffic is totally gone after this.

Can you please suggest how I can recover the same ASAP, as our site is a ecommerce website and we are loosing revenue per minute basis. Also on that server so many other websites are hosted. Can we stop Googlebots or other robots and instruct them to come back later. So that search engines bot can't mark our sites as "THIS SITE MAY HARM YOUR COMPUTER".

Thanks for your time for reading and replying appropriate solutions.

Regards,
SEMPro

You need to go to google webmaster tools and do a "request a review" explaining what happened.

There's a guide and info about how to recover from your problem on this site:

StopBadware.org - Request for Review Information

Hope this helps, good luck!

Are you on a SS, VPS or dedicated server?

To control the BOTS do this via a robots.txt file.

Remember, you can only tella bot what to do, not what it cannot do...
