My site was hacked a couple of weeks ago. The hacker put porn words in
my meta tags. I've cleaned it all up, but now my site is still
associated with some very disgusting search terms. I'm getting 1000s
of hits, shooting my bandwidth usage up, but my visitors aren't
looking for what my site sells. They're looking for sick pictures and
video of children and young girls. I'm going to be charged for an
overage, or lose my business.
How can I get Google to stop showing my site in porn searches? My
website help service says once Google associates a site with certain
words, you're stuck with them.

What then? Can you tell me what to look for to fix this? That's all
that was there. Also, they were showing up in my site only search
until they were removed. My main problem is how to save my bandwidth
by not showing up in searches for these words.

Google doesn't rank or even index anything in metatags, keywords or
description so that wasn't it. Those words have to be on the site
somehow when google visits, probably cloaked or hidden from a normal
browser. Try switching user agents, clearing cookies, viewing the
cache's on Google and other search engines.

I've looked at the html with my html editor. I can't find anything
else. If I have the site re-spidered will those words not appear in my
listing? Or is there something in the html that I could be missing?
OH, and thank you so much for your time. I'm stressed, and seem to
have lost my manners.

The UPS man came, and I hit send before I finished. It seems only
pages that have the porn words are pointing to my site. Or at least
the main page. I'm guessing these are IN my site? or could they be
other sites that point to me? Sorry, I'm a bit inexperienced with how
the bot works.

It looks like your site had quite a lot of really bad content about
one and half weeks ago. I'm glad to see that you were able to find it
and get it removed. I did however find some that still exists, which
automatically redirects to malware pages in your /chat/chat/files/
folder. It might be a good idea to go through those as well.
Once you have removed all of it - you may want to post here to let the
other experts take a look as well - it would be a good idea to submit
a reconsideration request, detailing all the content that you
removed.
Over time, your site should stop being shown for those searches. I'm
sorry that I can't give you an exact date, there are many factors that
go into that.
Not seeing any thing strange (checked around 30 with the cache as
well).
.
Not seeing your homepage listed though????
.
.
I did notice that oyu have several other (non-hack) issues.
Once this one is resoleved, I suggest you ask for a review or that and
we can go over them.

Thank you John! I'll look into the chat files. Actually, I'm deleting
that chatroom. Some of my visitors couldn't access it, so I changed to
one that's just a java plug-in.
