I noticed something strange while doing a routine check on how my sites appear in search results . I do this periodically for SEO and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) monitoring. The top result for kelvinau.net showed a title I never wrote: “University Student Gift Ideas Open When Envelopes For College Students.” Clicking the link from Google redirected to a spam product site. But when I visited kelvinau.net directly, everything looked normal.
My site had been hacked. And it took me hours to find out where.
