Strange Search Query Appearing on Google Index – “/?q=Save+Us+From+Berlusconi”

This is not a WordPress question … yet.

There are two ways to handle this.

  1. Don’t do anything. One more indexed page will not harm your site’s karma. This is not spam. Someone has has probably created a link to your site with this query string to trick the auto-complete tool on Google. The link may be gone now, but Google doesn’t forget. So what?

  2. Fix your search. I tested the search string on the website from your profile and I got many “results”. That’s a problem. You serve exactly the same set of articles for every search. This is not useful for your visitors. Plus, if some bad guy creates a file with 10.000 links to different searches you get a serious duplicate content problem. Install a good search plugin – I suggest Relevanssi – and make sure to show only real results.
