Website indexing issue because of malware

[rohini mathur]

I have a website which is having indexing issues for a long time, I have tried a lot of ways like backlinks, SEO, but it seems to be stuck, and also most of my pages are deindexed from google except homepage. I did some research and found out the problem is with Adsterra ads, they destroyed my website reputation, they used to put fake malware ads and automatic downloads, unfortunately I was not aware of this because when I used to visit my website as admin these ads were never showed to me. Right now I have removed all of those ads but google still does not want to index my website, please give me a solution, should I get a new domain or if you have any other suggestions please tell me.

If the site was flagged due to malware, it may still be in Google's Safe Browsing list. Use Search Console's "Security Issues" section and request a review after cleanup. If that fails, starting fresh on a new domain might be faster.

If the site still not indexing after the bad ads, request a review in Google search console and clean any leftover issues-If it doesn't recover in a month or two, consider starting fresh with a new domain.

What about your articles? Are they AI written?

If the malware ads hurt your site’s reputation, it’ll take time to rebuild trust. You can try submitting a reconsideration request in Google Search Console after cleaning everything up. But honestly, if indexing doesn’t recover soon, starting fresh on a new domain might save you a lot of headache.

Most of the posts are written by me and also copied from sources like wikipedia, imdb, my anime list, anime news network, etc

That could be part of the issue. Google doesn’t like copied content, especially from big sites like Wikipedia or IMDB. Try rewriting the articles in your own words, add some original insights, and make the content more unique. That can really help with indexing and rankings.

I don't copy everything directly, I use some of my own content as well

That's good to hear. Try updating your old posts with fresh content, add new info, rewrite parts in your own words, and improve titles and meta descriptions. Google loves fresh, updated content, and it can help bring the crawler back to your site and get those pages indexed again. Keep it up!

That’s unfortunate. Ad networks with malicious ads can really damage a site’s trust with Google. If you’ve already removed the ads, I’d recommend submitting a reconsideration request in Search Console and disavowing any bad links. Sometimes switching domain works, but try recovery steps first if the domain has good history.

Try checking Google Search Console for manual actions and submit a reconsideration request. Removing the ads was a smart move.
