---- Reconsideration Request Before Getting a Penalty?

There are many sites who get hacked every day and get abused.

  1. Clean up (immediately)
  2. make sure the hackers can't get back in the same way (immediately)
  3. harden all of your server and scripts (soon, and continue doing this "forever" staying one step ahead of the hackers)

Google is used to seeing sites getting hacked, they also know what a fast cleanup is and will appreciate it. Don't get hacked too often or they'll feel not so confident sending their users to you.

I'm not sure either way about contacting them. I'm very sure about hardening your stuff.
