Code: Select all

{"success":true,"message":null,"messages":null,"data":[]}

Somehow your site is giving an ajax link to Google. Not the end of the world. What the page is showing is exactly the kind of thing you would expect to see out of a com_ajax page. And because it isn't HTML, Google isn't interested in it.

How they got it? Who knows, doesn't really matter.
Will it hurt you? No, Google doesn't index AJAX/JSON responses.

You could add that URL to your robots.txt file and call it a day:

Disallow: /index.php?option=com_ajax&format=json

Honk if this signature offends you.
