We’ll be focusing on how to protect your site from hacking and give you better insight into how some of these hacking campaigns work. You can follow along with #NoHacked on <a href="https://twitter.com/googlewmc">Twitter</a> and <a href="//google.com/+googlewebmasters">Google+</a>. We’ll also be wrapping up with a <a href="https://plus.google.com/events/csqjnqe8vl28qbn526makjecobc">Google Hangout focused on security</a> where you can ask our security experts questions.<br /> <br /> We’re kicking off the campaign with some basic tips on how to keep your site safe on the web.<br /> <br /> <h2> 1. Strengthen your account security</h2> Creating a password that’s difficult to guess or crack is essential to protecting your site. For example, your password might contain a mixture of letters, numbers, symbols, or be a passphrase. Password length is important. The longer your password, the harder it will be to guess. There are many resources on the web that can test how strong your password is. Testing a similar password to yours (<b>never enter your actual password on other sites</b>) can give you an idea of how strong your password is.<br /> <br /> Also, it’s important to avoid reusing passwords across services. Attackers often try known username and password combinations obtained from leaked password lists or hacked services to compromise as many accounts as possible.<br /> <br /> You should also turn on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-factor_authentication">2-Factor Authentication</a> for accounts that offer this service. This can greatly increase your account’s security and protect you from a variety of account attacks. We’ll be talking more about the benefits of 2-Factor Authentication in two weeks.<br /> <br /> <h2> 2. Keep your site’s software updated</h2> One of the most common ways for a hacker to compromise your site is through insecure software on your site. Be sure to periodically check your site for any outdated software, especially updates that patch security holes. If you use a web server like Apache, nginx or commercial web server software, make sure you keep your web server software patched. If you use a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_content_management_systems">Content Management System</a> (CMS) or any plug-ins or add-ons on your site, make sure to keep these tools updated with new releases. Also, sign up to the security announcement lists for your web server software and your CMS if you use one. Consider completely removing any add-ons or software that you don't need on your website -- aside from creating possible risks, they also might slow down the performance of your site.<br /> <br /> <h2> 3. Research how your hosting provider handles security issues</h2> Your hosting provider’s policy for security and cleaning up hacked sites is in an important factor to consider when choosing a hosting provider. If you use a hosting provider, contact them to see if they offer on-demand support to clean up site-specific problems. You can also check online reviews to see if they have a track record of helping users with compromised sites clean up their hacked content.<br /> <br /> If you control your own server or use Virtual Private Server (VPS) services, make sure that you’re prepared to handle any security issues that might arise. Server administration is very complex, and one of the core tasks of a server administrator is making sure your web server and content management software is patched and up to date. If you don't have a compelling reason to do your own server administration, you might find it well worth your while to see if your hosting provider offers a managed services option.<br /> <br /> <h2> 4. Use Google tools to stay informed of potential hacked content on your site</h2> It’s important to have tools that can help you proactively monitor your site.The sooner you can find out about a compromise, the sooner you can work on fixing your site.<br /> <br /> We recommend you <a href="https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/">sign up for Search Console</a> if you haven’t already. Search Console is Google’s way of communicating with you about issues on your site including if we have detected hacked content. You can also set up <a href="https://www.google.com/alerts">Google Alerts</a> on your site to notify you if there are any suspicious results for your site. For example, if you run a site selling pet accessories called www.example.com, you can set up an alert for [site:example.com cheap software] to alert you if any hacked content about cheap software suddenly starts appearing on your site. You can set up multiple alerts for your site for different spammy terms. If you’re unsure what spammy terms to use, you can use Google to search for <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=common+spam+terms">common spammy terms</a>.<br /> <br /> We hope these tips will keep your site safe on the web. Be sure to follow our social campaigns and share any tips or tricks you might have about staying safe on the web with the #NoHacked hashtag.<br /> <br /> If you have any additional questions, you can post in the <a href="https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/webmasters">Webmaster Help Forums</a> where a community of webmasters can help answer your questions.

For years, a number of developers have integrated the results of autocomplete within their own services using a non-official, non-published API that also had no restrictions on it. Developers who discovered the autocomplete API were then able to incorporate autocomplete services, independent of Google Search.<br /> <br /> There have been multiple times in which the developer community’s reverse-engineering of a Google service via an unpublished API has led to great things. The Google Maps API, for example, became a formal supported API months after seeing what creative engineers could do combining map data with other data sources. We currently support <a href="https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/" target="_blank">more than 80 APIs</a> that developers can use to integrate Google services and data into their applications.<br /> <br /> However, there are some times when using an unsupported, unpublished API also carries the risk that the API will stop being be available. This is one of those situations.<br /> <br /> We built autocomplete as a complement to Search, and never intended that it would exist disconnected from the purpose of anticipating user search queries. Over time we’ve realized that while we can conceive of uses for an autocomplete data feed outside of search results that may be valuable, overall the content of our automatic completions are optimized and intended to be used in conjunction with web search results, and outside of the context of a web search don’t provide a meaningful user benefit.<br /> <br /> In the interest of maintaining the integrity of autocomplete as part of Search, we will be restricting unauthorized access to the unpublished autocomplete API as of August 10th, 2015. We want to ensure that users experience autocomplete as it was designed to be used -- as a service closely tied to Search. We believe this provides the best user experience for both services.<br /> <br /> For publishers and developers who still want to use the autocomplete service for their site, we have an alternative. Google Custom Search Engine allows sites to maintain autocomplete functionality in connection with Search functionality. Any partner already using Google CSE will be unaffected by this change. For others, if you want autocomplete functionality after August 10th, 2015, please see our CSE sign-up page.<br /> <div> <br /></div> <br /> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Peter Chiu on behalf of the Autocomplete team</span></div> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> Google Search provides an autocomplete service that attempts to predict a query before a user finishes typing.

We currently support <a href="https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/" target="_blank">more than 80 APIs</a> that developers can use to integrate Google services and data into their applications.<br /> <br /> However, there are some times when using an unsupported, unpublished API also carries the risk that the API will stop being be available. This is one of those situations.<br /> <br /> We built autocomplete as a complement to Search, and never intended that it would exist disconnected from the purpose of anticipating user search queries. Over time we’ve realized that while we can conceive of uses for an autocomplete data feed outside of search results that may be valuable, overall the content of our automatic completions are optimized and intended to be used in conjunction with web search results, and outside of the context of a web search don’t provide a meaningful user benefit.<br /> <br /> In the interest of maintaining the integrity of autocomplete as part of Search, we will be restricting unauthorized access to the unpublished autocomplete API as of August 10th, 2015. We want to ensure that users experience autocomplete as it was designed to be used -- as a service closely tied to Search. We believe this provides the best user experience for both services.<br /> <br /> For publishers and developers who still want to use the autocomplete service for their site, we have an alternative. Google Custom Search Engine allows sites to maintain autocomplete functionality in connection with Search functionality. Any partner already using Google CSE will be unaffected by this change. For others, if you want autocomplete functionality after August 10th, 2015, please see our CSE sign-up page.<br /> <div> <br /></div> <br /> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Peter Chiu on behalf of the Autocomplete team</span></div> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Webmaster Central Blog:Update on the Autocomplete API&url=https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2015/07/update-on-autocomplete-api.html?hl=en&via=googlewmc'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2015/07/update-on-autocomplete-api.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2015/07/update-on-autocomplete-api.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://webmasters.googleblog.com/search/label/autocomplete?hl=en' rel='tag'> autocomplete </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='3684621905643743127' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2015/07/google-case-study-on-app-download-interstitials.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='Google+: A case study on App Download Interstitials'> Google+: A case study on App Download Interstitials </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Thursday, July 23, 2015 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> Many mobile sites use promotional app interstitials to encourage users to download their native mobile apps.

Is Google changing the search algorithm to favor these TLDs? How important are they really in search? </b><br /> A: Overall, our systems treat new gTLDs like other gTLDs (like .com & .org).

Can Googlebot crawl and index them, so that they can be used in search?</b><br /> A: Yes. These TLDs can be used the same as other TLDs (it's easy to check with a query like [site:みんな]). Google treats the Punycode version of a hostname as being equivalent to the unencoded version, so you don't need to redirect or canonicalize them separately. For the rest of the URL, remember to use UTF-8 for the path & query-string in the URL, when using non-ASCII characters.<br /> <br /> <b>Q: Will a .BRAND TLD be given any more or less weight than a .com?</b><br /> A: No. Those TLDs will be treated the same as a other gTLDs. They will require the same geotargeting settings and configuration, and they won’t have more weight or influence in the way we crawl, index, or rank URLs.<br /> <br /> <b>Q: How are the new region or city TLDs (like .london or .bayern) handled?</b><br /> A: Even if they look region-specific, we will treat them as gTLDs. This is consistent with our handling of regional TLDs like .eu and .asia. There may be exceptions at some point down the line, as we see how they're used in practice.
