Security
If your WordPress site has been hacked, redirects visitors, shows spam pages in Google, or got flagged as unsafe, we clean it, find how it got in, close the hole, and keep watching so it does not happen again. If you would rather leave WordPress, we rebuild the site on a platform that does not need this kind of care.
Who This Is For
What the Service Includes
Full scan of files and database, removal of injected code, backdoors, rogue admin users, spam pages, and malicious redirects, restore of core and plugin files from clean sources, and verification that the site is clean.
We find how the attacker got in: an outdated plugin or theme, a weak or reused password, a vulnerable host configuration, or a leftover file. The report tells you what happened and what changed.
Updates to core, themes, and plugins; removal of abandoned ones; strong authentication with two-factor login; file permission and configuration fixes; disabling what the site does not use.
Cloudflare in front of the site with a web application firewall, rate limits, bot rules, and login protection, so most attacks never reach WordPress.
Off-site backups you can restore in minutes, a staging copy for testing, and a schedule for applying updates safely.
Uptime, file integrity, and malware monitoring with alerts to us, and a defined response when something changes. Google Search Console and blacklist status reviewed after cleanup.
WordPress runs a large share of the web, which makes it the most attacked platform on it. Almost every compromise comes from the same few causes: a plugin or theme that was not updated after a vulnerability was published, an administrator password that was weak or reused, an abandoned plugin nobody remembered installing, a hosting account with loose permissions, or a leftover backup file in a public folder. Attacks are automated; bots scan for known holes around the clock and do not care how small the business is.
The result shows up as redirects to spam, pharmacy or casino pages indexed under your domain, a red warning in the browser, emails from your domain landing in spam, or a hosting suspension notice. Removing the visible symptoms without finding the cause means the site is reinfected within days.
We start with a backup of the compromised state, because it is evidence, then contain the attack at the edge. Files are compared against clean copies of WordPress core, themes, and plugins; anything injected is removed, and unknown files, users, cron jobs, and keys are deleted. The database is scanned for injected scripts and spam content. The site is verified clean on a staging copy before it goes back live, and only then do we submit review requests to Google Safe Browsing and Search Console and clear hosting suspensions.
The report you receive names the entry point and the changes made. Then hardening: updates, two-factor authentication, permissions, removal of what the site does not need, Cloudflare in front with a firewall and rate limits, off-site backups, and monitoring.
A clean site stays clean only if someone is responsible for it. Our maintenance and support plan applies updates on a schedule, keeps backups off-site, monitors uptime and file integrity, and responds when something changes. You get a monthly report of updates applied, attacks blocked, and anything that needs your decision.
Some sites are not worth securing: too many plugins, a theme nobody can edit, a business that outgrew it. In those cases we rebuild the site as a fast static or server-rendered site, or on the platform that fits, migrate the content, set up redirects so rankings carry over, and put it on hosting that does not need weekly patching. Our website development services cover that path, and our SEO services recover what the hack cost in search.
How It Works
We take a full backup of the compromised state for analysis, block the attack path at the edge, and put the site in a safe mode if visitors are at risk.
Files and database are cleaned, core and plugins reinstalled from clean sources, unknown users and keys removed, and the site verified on a staging copy before it goes back live.
Updates, authentication, permissions, firewall, and backups configured. Google Safe Browsing and Search Console security warnings reviewed and review requests submitted; hosting suspensions cleared.
Monitoring and a maintenance plan keep the site updated and watched. You receive a monthly report of updates applied, blocked attacks, and anything that needs a decision.
Stack & Integrations
Engagement Models
Containment, cleanup, root-cause report, and blacklist reviews for a hacked site. Fixed scope, started the same day we have access.
For sites that are not hacked yet: audit, updates, authentication, firewall, backups, and a written security baseline.
Monthly updates, monitoring, backups, incident response, and reporting, as part of our website maintenance and support plan.
FAQ
Containment starts as soon as we have access to hosting and WordPress. Most cleanups finish within one to two days, depending on the size of the site and the extent of the damage; complex cases with database injections take longer. You get a timeline after triage.
After cleanup we request a review through Google Search Console and check other blacklists. Reviews are usually processed within days once the site is clean and the cause is fixed.
Not necessarily. If the host was the entry point or cannot support basic security, we will say so and help you move. Otherwise we harden the site where it is.
Those that are maintained and needed, yes, updated to clean versions. Abandoned or vulnerable plugins are replaced; we explain each change.
Nobody can promise that, and anyone who does is selling something. What we do: close the entry point, harden the site, put a firewall in front, keep it updated, monitor it, and respond when something changes. That combination stops the automated attacks that cause almost all WordPress hacks.
We rebuild the site as a static or server-rendered site, or on a platform that fits your needs, with redirects, content migration, and the same or better SEO. See our website development services.
Emergency cleanup and hardening are fixed-scope projects quoted after a short triage call. Monitoring and maintenance is a monthly plan sized by the site.
