Hacked WordPress site

Your site is hacked. Let's clean it up.

Redirects to spam, a Google warning, defaced pages, or a host that suspended the account. We remove the malware, find how it got in, close that hole, and harden the site against the next attempt.

What is included

What happens when you send us a hacked site?

Cleaning the visible symptom is not enough. If the entry point stays open, the same malware comes back within days.

Clean

Every infected file, database entry, cron job, admin account and hidden backdoor removed, not just the file your host flagged.

Find the root cause

How the attacker got in: an outdated plugin, a leaked password, a vulnerable theme, or a nulled plugin copy. Without this step, cleaning is temporary.

Harden

Close the specific hole we found, update everything vulnerable, rotate credentials and keys, and lock down file permissions.

WordPress security services

Keep it watched

Optional: a care plan adds ongoing malware scanning and uptime monitoring, so a reinfection attempt gets caught early instead of found by a customer.

Care plans

How it works

How fast can you clean a hacked WordPress site?

A senior engineer reads every enquiry, usually the same day Monday to Friday, and care plan clients get priority.

  1. Send access

    Hosting or WP-CLI/SSH access, or a login with an administrator role. We work from a backup where one exists.

  2. Scan and quote

    We identify the infection and its entry point, then give you a fixed price before any cleanup starts.

  3. Clean and harden

    Malware removed, the hole closed, credentials rotated, and the fix tested before we hand the site back.

  4. Confirm and report

    Google Search Console and any blocklists checked and a removal requested where needed, with a written summary of what happened.

Honest comparison

Restore a clean backup yourself, or a professional cleanup?

If you have a backup from clearly before the infection and know roughly when it started, restoring it yourself is faster and free. Use professional removal when that is not true.

Questions about a hacked WordPress site

My WordPress site was hacked and redirects to spam. What do I do first?
Do not panic-delete files. Take a full backup of the current, infected state first, in case something needs recovering later, then send us access. We isolate the redirect script, trace how it got in, and remove it along with anything else the attacker left behind.
Google says my site is dangerous. Can you fix that?
Yes. We clean the infection first, then request a review through Google Search Console once the site is confirmed clean. The warning clears once Google re-crawls and confirms it, which is outside our control but usually follows within days of a clean review request.
How fast can you help?
A senior engineer reads every enquiry, usually the same day Monday to Friday, and care plan clients get priority handling.
Will the hack come back?
Not if we find and close the actual entry point, which is why root-cause work is part of every cleanup, not an upsell. A care plan afterwards adds ongoing monitoring for extra peace of mind.
How much does malware removal cost?
You get a written report and a fixed price before any work starts. It depends on how deep the infection is and whether a clean backup exists.
Do you need my WordPress admin login?
We need administrator access or hosting/SSH access, whichever you are comfortable giving. Access is used only for the cleanup and can be revoked once the work is confirmed and handed over.
