Fake copies of our website made us disappear from Google search
- LinuxBender 7y agoThey don't even need to copy your website. Anyone can point a few hundred domains to a few haproxy instances with LetEncrypt certs, then point the backend to anyones website. They just need to change the header to the backend to request your domain instead of the proxy domains. Easy to do. They are not copying the website, just proxying. Google will see that as the same thing and SEO downrank your site. With cache enabled, the proxied versions may even be faster.
