Hi All,
I have a website Afrofood.com. In it's Google webmaster search queries i have more than 90 Queries, but not a single query is related with this site. All queries are from different site or subject, they have no any relation with my site.

Site is Afrofood.com related with African foods, recipes, spices and all that. But showing search queries are:

Hi,
You're site is not the only one - there seem quite a bit sites which redirect to these fake e-shops. Most likely the cause of this problem is a vulnerability issue with the slider on your site - check these links: http://wptavern.com/100000-wordpress-sites-compromised-using-the-slider-revolution-security-vulnerability & http://wptavern.com/critical-security-vulnerability-found-in-wordpress-slider-revolution-plugin-immediate-update-advised
I noticed you already installed sitelock which is a good thing. You should however also block access to pages like yourdomain/wp-content/themes/maya/inc/admin_scripts/ . Also check that Wordpress is up-to-date (as well as the other plugins you are using), change all your passwords on the server (also change your email passwords). If needed, get professional assistance to help you out of this mess, especially if you're not technically skilled.
It's quite important that you now delete all the external content on your site. Don't postpone this - the brand owner could file a spam report, or even take legal actions (one of the url's your site is redirecting to seems to be a phishing site of canada-goose.com - http://www.jackenoutletde.org/login.html
This case is quite similar to this one http://moz.com/community/q/chinese-site-ranking-for-our-brand-name-possible-hack - but the roles are different - this question is from a site owner which didn't rank for it's own brand name because of hacking issues (which would be Canada Goose in your case)
rgds,
Dirk
PS you'll find a Belgian IP address in your sitelock logs - that's me, not the hacker

If you do revert to a backup, make SURE you update everything bnefore making the site live.
With wordpress, you must keep it up to date, that thing is a security minefield.

If you need help fixing that, Sucuri should be able to help. They will fix it for a one time fee, and if it re-occurs they will fix it again any time in the next 12 months for no cost. I think it costs about $99 or something, but I haven't specifically checked that.
Alternatively, if you are good at keeping backups and haven't made any changes recently you could try reverting to an older version. Quite often with these hacks, even if you delete the offending files, if you don't deal with the root cause it will just happen again.

U got hacked - someone created a dummy page on your website and created links to it. You need to secure your wordpress (but first you need to clean it or do a fresh install).

as german it was pretty easy for me to find you under these german words, google is sending me there: afrofood.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/XHwco/ But the side ist redirecting me to: www.fundraising-kooperative.de/canada-goose-c-741/
BUT only in SERPS - open that url in your browser and you will see the problem: http://afrofood.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/XHwco/
into your 2014 uploads folder is a complete german website uploaded and indexed.

Does Google Understand H2 As Subtitle?
I use some HTML 5 tags on my custom template. I implement <header class="entry-header-outer"> Flavour & Chidinma – 40 Yrs 40 Yrs by Flavour & Chidinma </header> html code. h1 tag serves as the title, while h2 tag servers as the subtitle of the post. Take a look at it here: https://xclusiveloaded.com/flavour-chidinma-40-yrs/ I want to know if it's ok or should I remove the h2 tag. Guys, what is your thoughts?

Google rankings
I have encountered a serious problem with google rankings and the sequence of events goes like this for a high volume phrase. I make changes to the page which gets a score of 98 in Moz and equally good scores in other tools. I resubmit the page to Google for searching via crawl in google webmasters. After about 1/2 to 1 day, the page will be ranked between 30 and 50. Within another 1/2 to 1 day, the ranking goes completely away. This page has much higher scores than pages that are ranked. Other phrases continue to rank OK.

Smae Category Descriptions but in Different Cities
Hi, I was curious, if I have a guide with 20 categories, and that guide is in 10 different cities, can I have a category description for each city that simply swaps out the city name? Seattle Big Widgets
On-Page Optimization | | EBKMarketing
We offer the largest selection of widgets in the Seattle area. We have small widgets, medium widgets, large widgets. We have so many widgets, most people in Seattle are blown away by our selection. Portland Big Widgets We offer the largest selection of widgets in the Portland area. We have small widgets, medium widgets, large widgets. We have so many widgets, most people in Portland are blown away by our selection. Would this be considered duplicate content, if it's followed by distinct city listings? Writing 20 decriptions would be nicer than writing 200. Just trying to think about SEO, resources, best use of time, etc. Thanks0 -

Google Is Ranking the Wrong Page
Howdy Folks- I have a case where Google is ranking the wrong page for a couple of different keywords. The home page is: http://healthtn.com Most notably, we're trying to optimize the home page for "Tennessee Health Insurance" but the below page is what continually ranks for it, and does so very poorly. We used to be page two with the home page, now we are page four and it ranks the following page. http://healthtn.com/tennessee/health-insurance/student I have started directing our Internal Linking to reflect the correct anchor text but succeeded in losing ranking for the term, but am still ranking the wrong page. Any thoughts or help would be much appreciated!

Shall Google index a search result?
Hi, I've a website with about 1000 articles.Each article has one ore more keywords / tags. So I display these keywords at the article page and put a link to the intern search engine. (Like a tag cloud) The search engine lists als articles with the same keyword and creates a result page. This result page is indexed by Google. The search result contains the title of the article, a short description (150-300 chars.) and a link to the article. So, Google believes, that there are about 5.000 pages instead of 1.000 because auf the link to the search result pages. The old rule was for me: More pages in Google = better. But is this still true nowadays? Would be a "noindex, follow" better on these search result pages? (Is there a way to tell Google that this is a search result page?) Best wishes, Georg.
