Negative seo and hack website
"Friends, I have an online store that once ranked first on Google for many keywords. About a year ago, my site was attacked, suffered negative SEO, and got hacked. I lost all rankings and fell back to page 5 on Google. With much effort, I managed to get back to the middle of the first page. However, after changing the domain, everything was lost again. The domain change was done properly and thoroughly. My site is on WordPress. I changed the domain because several sites, including Norton's website, reported that my domain was hacked. Now, do you think I should start a new site or do you have any solutions in mind?"?
- Hope you have done proper 301 redirections for the respective pages
- Hope you have reported in Google Search Console about the domain change
- With the above two points, keep doing your excellent work.
Good Luck Ahead!
Google should not have issues with domain update as long as you do it right.

Negative SEO involves intentionally using malicious tactics to harm a competitor's website's search engine rankings and reputation. Hacking a website involves unauthorized access and manipulation of its content or functionality, causing significant harm to its owner.
Both practices can lead to severe legal consequences, damage to your own reputation, and harm to innocent parties. Instead of resorting to such actions, focus on ethical and legitimate strategies to improve your own website's performance, search engine rankings, and online presence. Collaborating with others and providing value within your niche is a far more sustainable and responsible approach.
