If you're on shared hosting you are already a sitting duck. It doesn't matter what YOU do. It only needs one weak site on the whole server and it is then trivial to access all sites on the server for a hacker. That's assuming there is a hacker and it's not just one of the other site owners on...
Is the site on shared hosting? If so, then it might be hacked. A trivial exercise on shared hosting. However, it could just be that links are being sold elsewhere and cloaked. These kinds of things are very common.
If its not on shared hosting then its very unlikely to be hacked.
If you are on shared hosting all of the security tips that are given out by the "experts" mean squat. Anybody with a site on that server can get to your site files trivially. It doesn't need very much knowledge. So all the advice about Wordpress plugins (for example) in the main is a load of...
OP should do rank and bank instead. Just like Hollywood reboots a film so you can consider this a reboot of churn and burn but with newer younger factors and no CGI.
Okay. I guess you're talking about asbestos water pipes then I'd agree that there's a risk but it's still the case these things are installed all over the world. Just like lead pipes. It's a case of making an informed decision about the risk. Each person will have a different level of risk (s)he...
This is still the case in many parts of Europe. I know for fact it's still the case there's still lead piping in the UK system. Usually the part between the road and the house. My parents had this section replaced 10 years ago. Most people don't bother. I doubt the situation is different...
This stuff has been working for the last five years at least. It started off with using redirect urls from well known organizations like BBC, Toshiba etc. These companies then started to take steps to disallow this and the technique went to URL shorteners. Pharma and cigs will once in a while...
Security is a red herring. If you are on shared hosting your Wordpress or other site is only as secure as the weakest one on the server. Once a hacker gets in to one site on the server all of them are trivial to hit and then it makes little difference to how much you hide the footprint via...
