What’s the worst thing that could happen to your blog? For many bloggers, the answer is getting blacklisted by Google and seeing all their organic traffic vanish overnight. And a common way this happens is when Google realizes your blog is infected before you do and simply blacklists you. This almost happened to my friend Anna from Garlic Delight a few days ago. Luckily a few simple SEO checks allowed her to notice the malware and get rid of it before being blacklisted.
