Hey @dhritimoy .

Thanks for reaching out.

I appreciate the context that you have provided as that is very helpful. Are you still experiencing this issue?

I would suggest finding and submitting your sitemap to have the search results for the online store displayed on Google search results. Once Google crawls your online store - this should get the online stores URL’s corrected on the listings.

Let me know if you have any questions.

@dhritimoy

Our developers have recently shipped a change that will generate a 404 page if the vendor is unknown (based on query string). The change will block it from indexing on Google. These changes will only apply to vendor pages, but our teams will investigate whether other pages may be vulnerable to this abuse.

This change is rolling out platform wide as we speak, so it may take some time for you to see these changes implemented. However, moving forward, this should help mitigate the ability spammers have with taking advantage of the query print out to advertise their spam links.

More information can be found here.

As this resolves the question and is related to a larger, ongoing thread, I will be locking this thread for future replies.

Cheers,
