Google displays "This site may have been hacked" in search results when it detects suspicious content on your website. Here's how to resolve this issue.

The warning message typically appears due to suspicious content rather than actual hacking. Most often, it's triggered by normal content with external text formatting. Your site's SSL certificate and security features are still intact and working properly.

To remove this warning message:

1. Verify your site with Google Search Console.

2. Check Security Issues section in Google Search Console to identify problematic content.

3. Remove the flagged content from your website.

4. Request a review from Google through Search Console.

Google will remove the warning message after reviewing your site and confirming the suspicious content has been removed. Most websites have this resolved within a few days after the review request.

Important Safety Notes:

• Squarespace sites include free SSL certificates
• Regular security scans protect against potential threats
• Industry-standard security tools prevent DDoS attacks
• Built-in protection against common vulnerabilities

This process ensures your site returns to normal search results display while maintaining security standards.
