Flagged as dangerous?
When Google flags a site for phishing or malware, Chrome, Firefox and Safari show a full red screen before letting anyone in. We ask Google directly whether your site is on its list.
Why a site gets flagged
Almost always because it was hacked: a vulnerable plugin, a stolen password, and pirates slip in fake login pages or redirects to scams. The owner often only finds out from a visitor.
01
Prevent
Update WordPress, the theme and plugins; use unique passwords and two-step login.
02
Be told
Add your site to Google Search Console: Google emails you as soon as it flags something.
03
Clean, then ask
Once the site is clean, request a review in Search Console; the red screen goes away after approval.
Frequently asked questions
Has Google flagged my site as dangerous?
The tool asks Google Safe Browsing directly about the address you enter, the domain's home page and its www version. It shows whether Google flags the site for phishing or malware, which triggers the browsers' red screen.
Why does a site get flagged?
Almost always because it was hacked: a vulnerable plugin or a stolen password lets pirates slip in fake login pages or redirects to scams. The owner often only finds out from a visitor.
How do I get rid of the red screen?
Clean the site first, then request a review in Google Search Console for your site. The browsers' red screen only goes away once Google approves that review.
How do I keep it from happening?
Update WordPress, the theme and plugins, and use unique passwords with two-step login. Also add your site to Search Console: Google emails you as soon as it flags something.
