Website Malware Removal & Cleanup

Hacked, blacklisted or redirecting to spam? We clean it, secure it and get you back in Google

HACKED WEBSITE REPAIR

WHEN YOUR WEBSITE GETS HACKED

Finding out that your website has been hacked is stressful. Visitors see a red "Deceptive site ahead" warning, your pages redirect to casino or pharmacy spam, Google Search shows strange Japanese keywords under your brand name, or your hosting provider suspends your account without warning. Every hour your website stays infected costs you traffic, leads and trust.

Our website malware removal service finds and removes the infection, repairs the damage and closes the security hole that let the attackers in. We then help you recover your search rankings and protect the site so it does not happen again.

Signs Your Website Has Been Hacked

  • Visitors are redirected to spam, adult, gambling or fake prize websites, often only on mobile or only from Google.
  • Google Chrome or Firefox shows a security warning before your site loads.
  • Google Search Console reports “Security issues” or a manual action.
  • Search results show pages, titles or keywords you never created, such as Japanese or pharmaceutical spam.
  • Unknown admin users appear in your dashboard.
  • Your hosting provider suspends the account or reports high resource usage.
  • Your website suddenly becomes very slow or sends spam emails from your domain.
  • Antivirus software or browser extensions block your website.

If you notice any of these signs, act quickly. The longer malware stays on a site, the more damage it does to your SEO and reputation.

What Our Website Cleanup Includes

Full Malware Scan and Diagnosis

We scan every file and the full database, not only the visible pages. Modern malware hides in plugin folders, uploads, theme files, database tables and even fake image files. We identify every infected location and the method attackers used to get in.

Malware and Backdoor Removal

We remove malicious code, injected scripts, hidden redirects, phishing pages and backdoors. Removing the visible symptom is not enough: if a backdoor stays, the site gets reinfected within days. Our cleanup targets the root of the problem.

Spam Content and SEO Spam Cleanup

Hackers often create thousands of spam pages to exploit your domain authority. We delete spam pages and links, clean the database, remove spam URLs from your sitemap and help Google drop them from the index.

Blacklist Removal

Once your site is clean, we request a review from Google Safe Browsing through Search Console and check other blacklists used by browsers, antivirus vendors and email providers. We guide the process until warnings are removed.

Security Hardening

After cleanup we close the door behind us:

  • Update or replace vulnerable plugins, themes and core files.
  • Reset all passwords and security keys, and remove unknown users.
  • Set correct file permissions and disable file editing from the dashboard.
  • Install a web application firewall and malware monitoring.
  • Enable two-factor authentication for all admin accounts.
  • Set up automatic off-site backups.

Cleanup Report

You receive a report explaining what we found, how attackers got in, what was removed and which measures are now protecting your site.

Platforms We Clean

  • WordPress and WooCommerce: the most frequently attacked CMS because of its popularity and the large number of third-party plugins.
  • Shopify: compromised apps, malicious scripts in theme code and fake checkout injections.
  • Joomla, Drupal, Magento and older CMS platforms: cleanup plus advice on migrating to a modern, supported platform.
  • Custom PHP and HTML websites: manual code review and cleanup.

Our Website Cleanup Process

  1. Contact us. Send your website address and a short description of the problem.
  2. Emergency assessment. We confirm the infection and its scope, and send you a fixed quote.
  3. Backup and isolation. We back up the infected site for analysis and stop the damage, using a maintenance page if needed.
  4. Cleanup. We remove malware, backdoors and spam content, and repair damaged files.
  5. Hardening and testing. We secure the site and test forms, checkout and key pages.
  6. Blacklist and SEO recovery. We submit review requests and monitor Search Console until warnings clear.

Recovering Your Google Rankings After a Hack

A hack can wipe out years of SEO work. Spam pages dilute your authority, warnings stop visitors from clicking and Google may temporarily drop your pages from results. As an SEO agency, we do more than remove code. We audit indexed pages, fix redirects and broken links, clean up toxic spam backlinks created during the attack and monitor rankings until traffic returns. If your site received a manual action, our Google Penalty Recovery service handles the reconsideration request.

Prevent the Next Attack

Most hacks are preventable. Outdated plugins, weak passwords and missing backups are behind the majority of the cases we see. After the cleanup, we recommend joining one of our Website Maintenance Services plans, which include updates, daily backups, firewall protection and malware monitoring, so problems are caught before they reach your visitors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does malware removal take?

Most websites are cleaned within 24 to 48 hours of access being provided. Complex infections or very large sites can take longer, and we keep you updated throughout.

Will I lose my content or data?

No. We back up the site before any changes and remove only malicious code and spam. Your pages, products and customer data stay intact.

Why did my website get hacked?

The most common causes are outdated plugins or themes, nulled (pirated) plugins, weak passwords and insecure hosting. Our report tells you exactly which one applied to your site.

Can you remove the Google warning?

Yes. Once the site is clean we request a review in Google Search Console. Google usually processes reviews within a few days.

My website was cleaned before but got hacked again. Why?

Usually a backdoor or the original vulnerability was left in place. We find and close both, which is why our cleanups last.
