CYBER CRIME CONSULTING

Don't Let Others
Steal Your Data/Website

WE UNCOVER THE CAUSE/FRAUDSTERS

Data theft, targeted attacks on your website, click fraud, negative fake reviews – am I affected by these?

We secure jobs

Oh my goodness! Just yesterday, we were at the top of page one on Google and other search engines, and today? Somewhere in the backwoods, far behind the first three page results. Sudden ranking losses often go hand in hand with criminal activities. But how do I find out if I'm affected by cybercrime?

  • Plummeting overnight: Every website faces this at least once. 
  • You're not to blame: 68% of ranking losses in the top ten are due to content spam. 
  • High costs, no benefits: 20% of ad clicks are fraudulent.
     

Does this sound familiar? Every website is eventually affected by cybercrime. Unfortunately, negative influences are not always immediately apparent at first glance. They often go unnoticed. We take a closer look. 
Because it's no use optimizing content and technology if the causes of ranking losses are not eliminated. 

We uncover negative SEO and content spam. We expose click bots and remove fake reviews. So that your website can safely reappear in the top rankings.

REMOVING BAD INFLUENCES

Caution! Negative SEO is harmful and illegal

Suddenly devalued! The content on your website is good. Often, this concern is unfounded. Instead, you are likely affected by 'negative SEO.' Competitors can manipulate their positions by deliberately placingbad backlinks and launching spam attacks. This is done intentionally against a domain, a directory, or a specific keyword ranking. 

Some, rather unscrupulous agencies employ these tactics to get their own clients to page 1 on Google. But beware! Such actions, like spam attacks, fall under the category of economic crime! They are illegal. 

Negative SEO attacks unfortunately affect everyone – even small, local businesses. We determine whether your ranking losses or penalties were caused by negative SEO and rectify the situation. So that your website can be securely found again.

 

COMBATING NEGATIVE SEO

YOUR CONTENT BELONGS TO YOU

Detect Duplicate Content -
Report to Google

Suddenly, your content appears on another website. Good content gets stolen. Your exact words and sentences. Plenty of advertising banners, often for casino, dating, and adult offers, pop up when visiting this website.

This is not good for your brand.

In the worst case, Google may exclude your own website from the index due to duplicate content – it won't be found anymore. That must not happen!

This is also a form of 'negative SEO.' We track duplicate content and content spam. And we ensure that you appear in Google search again.
 

Uncover Content Theft

FALSE CLICKS ARE COSTLY

No more Google Ads click fraud!

Incorrect clicks on your Google ad cost you money. Unfortunately, they don't bring you any benefit. Additionally, your advertising budget gets depleted quickly, and your ad no longer appears. 
Bad for you, good for the competition. 

Quick in, quick out – a click fraud bot or even a human click fraudster "jumps" to your landing page and immediately exits. This behavior also harms your website. Google thereby downgrades the quality, and you lose rankings. 

Did you know that click fraud wastes 20% of advertisers' budgets? We put a stop to it! Fraudulent IPs are automatically reported to Google in real-time by us. This ensures that bots, competitors, and other harmful sources can't even click on your ads in the first place.
 

End click fraud

FAKE REVIEWS

Defend against negative and false reviews

Negative and fake reviews on Google, Amazon, eBay, and more can harm your business. Fake reviews tarnish your reputation and can lead to a significant drop in revenue. You lose existing customers and fail to attract new ones. Your website's Google ranking drops from the front page to page 325 or worse. 

It doesn't have to be this way! Fight against unjustified or false reviews. 

What can you do? How should you proceed? Can you get reviews removed or even involve a lawyer? It's not always straightforward. 

We'll investigate this for you. And we'll help you get rid of unjustifiably bad or fake reviews.

Questions and Answers

What is Cyber Crime?

Cyber Crime refers to web-based criminal activities. When it comes to your website, these include hacking attacks, fake reviews, content theft, spam attacks, and Google Ads click fraud.

What is Negative SEO?

Unnatural, sudden drops in rankings are often linked to content spam and/or Negative SEO. The cause of abrupt declines in Google rankings is frequently a spam attack involving low-quality backlinks (such as bad links that do not comply with Google's guidelines). Negative SEO is, therefore, a spam attack against a domain, directory, or keyword. We have been swiftly addressing Negative SEO attacks since 2016, often resolving them within a matter of days.

What is Content Spam?

Content Spam refers to the theft of valuable content from your website, which is duplicated on other webpages. These pages often include links to casino, dating, and adult content offerings. Improper use of the content leads to duplicate content issues, associated with negative elements. As a result, the value of the content diminishes, and the original page experiences a significant and rapid decline. This can often lead to the exclusion of the original page from Google's index.

What is Click Fraud?

Click fraud is a deliberate attack on your advertising budget. It refers to online scams specifically targeting ad clicks and banner impressions that are compensated on a per-click basis. Clicks are used to manipulate the underlying billing systems intentionally. According to a study by ClickCease, 72% of ad clicks are indeed genuine clicks. 24% of clicks come from competitors, and 4% are generated by bots. Click fraud is a violation that falls under the category of white-collar crime.

How to Get Rid of Fake Reviews?

Fake reviews often come from unknown individuals and are reviews of your business that have no connection to your company. These people are unfamiliar to you, and in almost all cases, there has been no business relationship. Such reviews can be reported to Google. Legal removal is also possible. Our services are designed to help you identify and eliminate such reviews.
