Jap / Chinese Link Spam! HELP!!

Hey Guys,

One of my clients on wordpress is being targeted with chinese link spam. Thousand's of pages being created.

These links are causing rank and traffic drop. I have blocked indexing using operators in robots.txt for a few common strings I found in these links. However it is affecting genuine pages from getting indexed as well. Like genuine search page results etc.

Client has removed the search bar, not that it will help! More and more pages get created everyday. Example -


I would appreciate if you have dealt with a similar situation, let me know what to do and how to deal with it.

Thank you!!

You client site got hacked.
Here is a simple solution
1) export pages and post using export/under settings. Export images from cpanel as zip file. They are under content folder
You will get a xml file for post and pages.
2)change the location of your wpinstall, install fresh wp.
3) import the post and pages.
4) install plugins and themes
5) customize the pages like before Footer etc add images
6)install a security plugin.
7) remove url in gsc removals using the partical url like this
