Introduction
Have you ever tried to log into a website and Google shows you a red warning saying. "This place can be dangerous."?
This is no accident. Google is actively working to identify fraudulent sites, especially those that attempt to steal personal information, passwords or banking data through phishing.
Phishing is one of the most common and dangerous digital threats for businesses, entrepreneurs and end users. A single compromised site can affect the trust of your customers, damage your online reputation and even cause Google to block your domain in search results.
In this article we explain how Google Web Services works to detect phishing sites, what signals it analyzes, why some sites end up on blacklists and, most importantly, how to protect your website with the help of ClickPanda to avoid penalties and traffic loss.
What is phishing and why does Google actively combat it?
Phishing is a digital fraud technique where attackers create fake websites or compromise real sites to trick users and steal sensitive information such as:
Passwords
Bank details
Personal information
Access to corporate e-mails
Google fights phishing because its priority is to protect users and maintain a safe web ecosystem. Therefore, when it detects suspicious behavior, it acts quickly by displaying warnings or blocking access to the site.
How does Google detect phishing websites?
Google uses multiple automated systems and security services to identify dangerous sites. These are the main mechanisms:
- Google Safe Browsing
- Site behavior analysis
- User and browser reports
- Integration with Google Search Console
What happens when Google detects phishing on your website?
When Google identifies a site as dangerous, several things can happen:
Red warning before entering the site
Temporary removal of search results
Loss of organic traffic
Damage to brand reputation
Total distrust of users
In many cases, regaining Google's trust can take weeks, even after the problem has been fixed.
What factors make a site more vulnerable to phishing?
The websites most likely to be attacked usually have:
Insecure or low quality hosting
Lack of SSL certificates
outdated CMS (WordPress, plugins, themes)
Weak passwords
No security monitoring
No backups
This is where good infrastructure makes the difference.
