  resolver 8.8.8.8;
  location / {

}

Spider Exclusion

The spiders of any search engines are not allowed to crawl google mirror.
Default robots.txt listed below was build-in aleady.

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

If google_robots_allow set to on, the robots.txt will be replaced with the version of google itself.

  #...
  location / {
    google on;
    google_robots_allow on;
  }
  #...
Upstreaming

upstream can help you to avoid name resolving cost, decrease the possibility of google robot detection and proxy through some specific servers.

upstream www.google.com {
  server 173.194.38.1:443;
  server 173.194.38.2:443;
  server 173.194.38.3:443;
  server 173.194.38.4:443;
}
Proxy Protocol

By default, the proxy will use https to communicate with backend servers.
You can use google_ssl_off to force some domains to fall back to http protocol.
It is useful, if you want to proxy some domains through another gateway without ssl certificate.

#
# eg. 
# i want to proxy the domain 'www.google.com' like this
# vps(hk) -> vps(us) -> google
#

#
# configuration of vps(hk)
#
server {
  # ...
  location / {
    google on;
    google_ssl_off "www.google.com";
  }
  # ...
}

upstream www.google.com {
  server < ip of vps(us) >:80;
}

#
# configuration of vps(us)
#
server {
  listen 80;
  server_name www.google.com;
  # ...
  location / {
    proxy_pass https://www.google.com;
  }
  # ...
}
