WordPress Malware Removal

Hacked site? I clean it, close the hole and harden it so it stays clean.

WordPress malware removal that fixes the cause, not just the symptoms

A hacked website loses visitors, sales and trust fast. Google may show a “This site may be hacked” warning, your host may suspend the account, and customers can be redirected to spam or scam pages. My WordPress malware removal service gets your site clean, back online and protected — usually within 24 hours.

I don’t just delete a few suspicious files. I find out how the attacker got in, close that door, and leave your site harder to break into than it was before.

What the clean-up includes

  • Full scan of WordPress core, themes, plugins, uploads and the database for backdoors, injected scripts and hidden admin users.
  • Manual removal of malicious code and replacement of core files with clean copies.
  • Entry-point fix — outdated or nulled plugins, weak passwords, vulnerable forms or exposed files.
  • Blacklist removal — requesting reviews with Google Search Console and security vendors so warnings disappear.
  • Hardening — firewall rules, login protection, file permissions, two-factor login and secure backups.
  • A short report explaining what happened and what to do to stay safe.

Signs your site may be infected

Visitors on mobile being redirected to other sites, strange pages showing up in Google (often pharmacy, casino or Japanese keyword spam), new admin users you didn’t create, a sudden drop in traffic, or emails from your host about abuse. If you notice any of these, act quickly — infections spread and get harder to remove.

Prevent it happening again

Most hacks come from outdated plugins and themes. My website maintenance plans keep everything updated, monitored and backed up every week. If your site is old or built on abandoned plugins, a website redesign or a move to a modern, faster platform may be the better long-term fix.
