WordPress Website Malware Removal

Q: My site looks fine to visitors — could it still be hacked?

Yes, very commonly. Cloaking hacks are specifically designed to show clean content to human visitors while serving spam, redirects, or different pages entirely to Googlebot and search crawlers. This is exactly why hundreds of spam URLs can appear in Search Console while your site “looks normal.” A proper audit checks what Google sees, not just what you see.

Q: Will you need to take my site offline during cleanup?

No. Cleanup is performed on your live production site without downtime. A full backup is taken first as a safety net, and all changes are made carefully and incrementally so your visitors are never affected during the process.

Q: How fast can you start?

For urgent cases — active malware distribution, hosting suspension, or Google warnings — I aim to begin investigation within hours of first contact. Standard audits are scheduled within 24-48 hours depending on current workload.

Q: What access do you need from me?

WordPress admin access, and either hosting/cPanel access or SFTP/SSH credentials for file-level investigation. If you have Google Search Console access, that helps speed up the spam URL removal process too. All credentials are handled confidentially and can be rotated immediately after the project.

Q: Why did the malware come back after a previous "cleanup"?

This is extremely common. Most quick cleanups remove the visible spam content but miss the backdoor or vulnerability that let the attacker in originally — so reinfection happens within days or weeks. My process specifically focuses on finding and closing the actual entry point, not just deleting symptoms.

Q: Can you help remove a manual action or warning from Google?

Yes. Once the site is fully cleaned and verified, I submit a reconsideration request through Search Console along with documentation of the fixes made. I also handle spam URL removal requests and request re-crawling of affected pages.

Signs Your WordPress Site is Compromised

Most hacks aren’t obvious. Sites often “look normal” to the owner while Google, visitors on certain devices, or search crawlers see something completely different.

Hundreds of strange URLs indexed in Google Search Console that you never created

Visitors randomly redirected to spam, gambling, or pharmacy sites

Hosting provider warning of malware, spam emails, or suspended account

Unfamiliar admin users appearing in your WordPress dashboard

Sudden, unexplained traffic spikes or drops in Google Analytics

Browser or Google flags your site as "deceptive" or "dangerous"

Unknown PHP files appearing in your theme, plugin, or uploads folders

Your server is sending out spam emails without your knowledge

Full-Scope Malware Removal & Hardening

Surface-level cleanup isn’t enough — malware that isn’t fully removed comes back within days. Every audit goes deep into code, database, and server configuration.

Malware & Backdoor Detection

Manual and automated scanning of core files, themes, and plugins for obfuscated PHP, base64-encoded payloads, eval injections, and hidden backdoors.

Database Injection Cleanup

Deep scan of database tables for injected spam content, malicious redirects, hidden posts/pages, and unauthorized scheduled tasks (cron jobs).

Cloaking & SEO Spam Removal

Detect and eliminate cloaking hacks where Googlebot is shown different content than real visitors — the cause of mass spam URL indexing.

Hidden Admin & Access Audit

Identify and remove unauthorized admin accounts, rogue API keys, suspicious user roles, and any persistent access points left by attackers.

Search Console Recovery

Submit removal requests for spam URLs, request re-crawl of cleaned pages, and resolve any manual actions or security issues flagged by Google.

Security Hardening

File permission lockdown, security keys/salts rotation, login protection, firewall rules, and disabling of risky default WordPress behaviors.

Wordfence / Firewall Setup

Configuration of Wordfence or Sucuri with proper rule sets, real-time malware scanning, and brute-force login protection going forward.

Written Findings Report

A complete document listing every infected file/table found, what was done to fix it, and how the infection likely got in — yours to keep.

Why Trust Me With a Compromised Site

A bad cleanup is worse than no cleanup — missed backdoors mean reinfection within days. Here’s how this is done properly.

Live site, zero downtime

Cleanup happens on your live production site without taking it offline. Backups are taken first, every step is reversible.

Root cause, not symptoms

I trace exactly how the attacker got in and close that door — not just delete the visible spam and hope it doesn't return.

Fast response

Security issues are time-sensitive. Initial response within hours, not days — because every hour live makes things worse.

Confidential by default

Access credentials and findings are handled under strict confidentiality. Nothing about your breach is shared or disclosed.

Reinfection guarantee

If the same malware returns within 30 days of a full cleanup, I fix it again at no additional charge — full stop.

Proof, not promises

You get a documented, file-by-file account of what was infected and what was fixed — not just a verbal "it's clean now."

From Infected to Secured in 6 Steps

A methodical process built for accuracy under pressure — because guesswork on a compromised site causes more damage.

Emergency triage call

A quick call or message exchange to understand symptoms, urgency, and immediate risk — is the site actively serving malware to visitors right now?

Full backup & isolation

A complete backup of files and database is taken immediately, before any changes are made — so nothing is ever permanently lost.

Deep investigation

Manual review of core files, themes, plugins, database tables, .htaccess, cron jobs, and user accounts to map the full scope of the infection.

Removal & verification

Every malicious file, database entry, and backdoor is removed. I then verify Googlebot and real visitors see identical, clean content.

Hardening & firewall setup

Passwords and security keys rotated, file permissions locked down, and a firewall (Wordfence/Sucuri) configured to block future attempts.

Report & Search Console cleanup

You receive a full written report, and I personally handle spam URL removal requests and re-crawl submissions in Google Search Console.

Tools I Use to Investigate & Secure

Industry-standard security tools combined with manual code-level investigation that automated scanners often miss.

Fixed-Price Security Packages

Transparent, scoped pricing — security work should never come with surprise invoices.
