Signs of a hack

Is your WordPress site hacked?

Some signs almost always mean a compromise. If you see any of these, treat the site as hacked and act today.

01

Spam redirects

Visitors, often only on mobile or from Google, are sent to spam, adult, or scam sites.

02

Google warnings

"This site may be hacked" in search results, or a red "Deceptive site ahead" screen.

03

Unknown admin users

Administrator accounts you did not create. Attackers add these to get back in.

04

Pages you never wrote

Spam pages, pharmacy keywords, or foreign-language content showing in search.

05

Hosting suspension

Your host has suspended the account or emailed about malicious activity.

06

Fake reCAPTCHA screens

Visitors asked to "verify they are human" with steps that install malware.

Not sure? Our guide on how to tell if your WordPress site has been hacked covers how to confirm it.

What's included

A cleanup that stays clean

Cleaning the malware without finding how it got in is the main reason sites get reinfected within weeks. We remove the infection, find the entry point, close it, and harden the site before we call it done.

Want to understand the process first? Our guide to WordPress malware removal explains each step.

✓  Malware cleanup: infected files, injected code, and rogue admin users removed ✓  Backdoor search: hidden access points attackers leave to get back in ✓  Entry point closed: the vulnerable plugin, theme, or credential that let them in ✓  Database cleanup: injected scripts, spam links, and redirects in the database ✓  Warning removal: Google Safe Browsing and Search Console review requests ✓  Hardening and report: protection set up, plus a written account of what happened
How it works

Hacked to clean in four steps

Cleanup starts the same day. Most sites are clean and hardened within 24 to 48 hours.

1

Contain

We back up the infected state, lock down access, and change credentials.

2

Clean

Malware, backdoors, injected code, and rogue users are removed from files and database.

3

Close the door

We find the entry point, patch or remove it, and harden the site.

4

Recover

We request warning removal, verify the site is clean, and send a written report.

Do not delete files at random. Panicked deleting often breaks the site and destroys the evidence of how the attacker got in. Back up the current state first, even though it is infected.

Honest limits

When cleanup alone is not enough

If the site has no clean backup, runs abandoned plugins, or has been reinfected more than once, a cleanup buys time but not safety. The same hole will be found again.

In that case we tell you plainly, and the fix includes replacing what cannot be secured. Ongoing WordPress security then keeps it that way.

Common questions

WordPress malware removal questions

Straight answers before you commit to anything.

How long does WordPress malware removal take?

Cleanup starts the same day you contact us, and most sites are clean and hardened within 24 to 48 hours. Heavily infected sites, or sites with no clean backup, can take longer. Google warning removal is a separate review that Google completes on its own schedule.

Will I lose my content if my site is hacked?

Usually not. Most infections can be cleaned without losing posts, pages, or orders. The biggest risk is panic, such as deleting files blindly or restoring an infected backup. Backing up the current state before touching anything protects your content.

How did my WordPress site get hacked?

Most often through an outdated or vulnerable plugin, a weak or reused password, or an extra admin account. Attacks are usually automated and not personal. Finding the actual entry point is part of every cleanup, because closing it is what stops reinfection.

Can you remove the Google "This site may be hacked" warning?

We clean the site and then submit the review request through Search Console. Google removes the warning once its review confirms the site is clean. We cannot control Google's timing, but a properly cleaned site with the entry point closed passes the review.

Will the malware come back?

Not if the entry point is closed and backdoors are removed. Reinfection within weeks almost always means the original hole was left open. After cleanup we harden the site and can monitor it so any new change is caught quickly.

How much does WordPress malware removal cost?

It depends on how widespread the infection is and whether a clean backup exists. After a quick look you get one fixed price in writing before cleanup starts, so an emergency does not come with an open-ended bill.
