[BillyBonka]

Hi there,

My ads got dissaproved in Google ads because of link : Link: cdn2.editmysite.com/js/ found in my website pages and is generated by the Weebly editor. Google Ads believes it is malware!!!!!!!

Please refer to email received from Google Ads:

When did you receive that email, @BillyBonka? Google had incorrectly flagged our CDN as malware, though they confirmed with us that they have fixed that. It seems like there's a disconnect at Google and their Adwords checks aren't reflecting that. You should be able to get that fixed by submitting your campaigns for a review:

Hi Adam,

I received dissaproval for my Google Ads on 13/02/2019... so it looks like Google Ads still thinks Weebly generated pages is malware, so problem is not fixed!!

[ChocolateOpal]

Hi, same with my site today. Contacted Adwords twice, and apparently they know there's an exclusive issue with Weebly. Google Adword customer service told me to wait 48-72 hours.

[BillyBonka]

Hi ChocolateOpal,

Lets see how this plays out. I re-submitted my ads for approval and they got dissaproved again right now. Tragic!

[ChocolateOpal]

I re-submitted mine also, same result. When I spoke with Weebly, he recommended this link:

Hopefully , Weebly understands the magnitude of this problem!

If Google belives our Weebly generated websites contain malware because of Weebly code implanted automatically into our webpages, there go our SEO efforts!

Our websites will be blacklisted and we won't even appear in organic search results .

[ChocolateOpal]

I agree, and hope this is resolved ASAP.. Google has no sympathy! It seems there are many Weebler's that are affected, too., That's the impression the Adwords Specialist gave me.

[BillyBonka]

Hi Adam,

I re-submitted my Google Adwords Ads for approval and they got dissaproved again, so recommended fix did not work. Google Adwords still think that Weebly generated webpages is malware!

[ChocolateOpal]

Do you advertise with Bing/Yahoo? I do, there's no issue with them.

[BillyBonka]

No I don't.

[BillyBonka]

Just received a call from Google Ads...

They made me log onto Google Webmaster and run the security issues link to see if there is any secuirty issues. No secuirty issues detected. Then they asked for me to send a screenshot of the result so they can go ahead with a manual review of my dissaproved Google Ads.

They will contact me within 48 hours.

I also asked the Google Ads guy if here is aware of any problem with Weebly websites in general and he said no

[ChocolateOpal]

Thank you! My turn.

I have been locked out of AdWords since Sunday. Every type of escalation and review has been done by Google, and still the Weebly code is flagged. The fault lies completely with Weebly - it's their code. If they can't solve this within days, an Weebly alternative will need to be found.

[BillyBonka]

I agree.

Google Adwords has escalated the matter for me and I am waiting for their response. Lets see what they come up with,

I also contacted Weebly support by email and their answer was at the least pathetic. Their trying to pass the blame onto Adwords where the problem lies with Weebly and only with Weebly. Read below email correspondance from Weebly support. Its almost like they don't care and they treat you like idiots.

Hey there,

Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, this is not an issue we can resolve directly as we don’t have access to your Google AdWords account or any of their systems. While we can’t provide direct support for this, you may use the following link to request assistance from Google:

Sorry to hear you are running into this issue! The instructions I've been told to use include submitting your site for review through Webmaster Tools before submitting to Ads. https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/security/hacked/use_search_console

Have you tried logging into https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/login ?

This video shows the link you will click on in the Webmaster Tools dashboard. The entire video is informative, but the dashboard part starts at the 1:50 mark.

Bernadette,

Yes, I have done that and there are no security issues with Google Webmaster. The problem is with Weeblys autogenerated code cdn2.editmysite.com/js/ found on my site.

[Adam7]

I would contact Adwords support and ask them to do a manual review. From what others who have done this have said, they'll have you use something like their Transparency Report to confirm that there is no malware, and then submit campaigns for manual review.

[BillyBonka]

Hi there,

Would llike to update that Google has contacted me after performing a manual review and have reinstated my ads on Google Ads.

[Bernadette3]

I'm so happy to hear you finally resolved this. What a headache, though! Thank you for taking the time to update this thread and please let us know if you run into any more issues as well.
