A couple hours ago I noticed my website started slowing down. When it would try to load a page, the status would read: “waiting for googleleads.g.doubleclick.net…” My website was the online site giving me this message. I cleared cached data and cookies and the problem persists.
Then I checked Google Analytics and saw all kinds of false traffic. Page URLs like:
1. /Google+Redesign/Shop+by+Brand/YouTube 4
2. /home 4
3. /Google+Redesign/Apparel/Mens 3
4. /Google+Redesign/Nest/Nest-usa 2
5. /signin.html?loginway=header 2
6. /Google+Greenesign/Apparel/Google+Tee+Green 1
7. /Google+Redesign/Apparel/Kids 1
8. /Google+Redesign/Drinkwar…mal+Bottle+White+with+box 1
9. /Google+Redesign/Kids/Google+Standard+Bib+Red 1
10. /Google+Redesign/Shop+
My site is hosted in Godaddy, and I tried restoring a backup from a few days ago. But that did not fix the problem.
Please advise!
