Hacked Website Repair & Malware Removal cleaned, hardened and monitored
I recover hacked WordPress and WooCommerce websites: I remove malware, backdoors and rogue admin accounts, close the hole the attacker used, and get Google warnings and blacklists removed. Then I harden the site and server, add a web application firewall and monitoring, so businesses in Egypt, the Gulf and the UK can trust their website again.

What’s included
Emergency response
Containment within your hosting: evidence backup, password and key rotation, and maintenance mode to protect visitors while I work.
Malware & backdoor removal
Deep cleaning of files and database: injected scripts, spam links, redirects, web shells, rogue admin users and hidden mu-plugins.
Root-cause fix
I find how the attacker got in, whether a vulnerable plugin, stolen password or server weakness, and close it so the hack does not return.
Blacklist & warning removal
Google Search Console security issues, "This site may be harmful" warnings and other blocklists, plus hosting suspensions and email blacklisting.
WordPress & server hardening
Updates, least-privilege roles, 2FA, secure wp-config.php, file permissions, no PHP in uploads, and secure PHP and server settings.
Web application firewall (WAF)
Cloudflare or Wordfence firewall rules, login protection, rate limiting and bot filtering to block attacks before they reach WordPress.
Backups you can restore
Automatic, off-site backups with retention, tested by an actual restore, so a future incident costs minutes, not days.
Security monitoring
File-change and malware scans, uptime and blacklist checks, and alerts so problems are caught before customers notice.
How it works
- 1
Contact & quick assessment
Message me on WhatsApp with the site URL and what you see. I confirm the symptoms and send a custom quote before any work starts.
- 2
Contain & back up
I back up the infected site for evidence, rotate every password and key, and protect visitors while the cleanup runs.
- 3
Clean files & database
Core, plugins and themes are replaced with verified clean copies, and injected code, users and scheduled tasks are removed from the database.
- 4
Close the entry point & harden
The vulnerability is fixed, then WordPress and the server are hardened and a firewall is placed in front of the site.
- 5
Delist & monitor
I request reviews from Google and other blocklists, confirm the site is clean, and set up monitoring and backups going forward.
Why work with me
Security is my day job
I work as a web security specialist and IT manager for academies and companies, and have secured WordPress sites since 2017.
I clean the whole stack
As an IT infrastructure engineer I check the server, hosting account, database and email, not only the WordPress folder a plugin can scan.
Honest about data
I tell you clearly what can be recovered and how, and never promise results that depend on backups or evidence that does not exist.
Prevention included
Every cleanup ends with hardening, a firewall and backups, and you can continue with a maintenance plan so it does not happen again.
Who is this for
- Websites showing Google "This site may be harmful" or "deceptive site" warnings
- Sites redirecting visitors to spam, gambling or fake pages
- WooCommerce stores worried about card skimmers or fake orders
- Sites suspended by hosting for malware or spam sending
- Businesses with unknown admin users, strange files or sudden SEO spam
- Companies that want a security audit and hardening before an attack happens
Signs your WordPress website has been hacked
- Google shows a red warning page, or Search Console reports security issues.
- Visitors, especially on mobile, are redirected to spam, gambling or fake prize pages.
- Search results show Japanese, pharma or casino keywords under your domain.
- Unknown admin users, new files in uploads or plugins you never installed.
- Your hosting provider suspends the account or your emails start landing in spam.
If you see any of these, act quickly but carefully. My step-by-step guide on recovering a hacked WordPress site explains what to do first; if you prefer to hand it over, contact me and I will take it from there.
How I remove malware properly
Most reinfections happen because a cleanup deleted the visible malware but left the backdoor. Sucuri's hacked website report found at least one backdoor in 49.21% of the compromised sites it cleaned. That is why I follow a replace-and-verify method instead of editing infected files one by one.
| Quick "cleanup" | My professional cleanup |
|---|---|
| Runs a scanner plugin and deletes flagged files | Replaces core, plugins and themes with verified clean copies and checks checksums |
| Ignores the database | Removes injected scripts, spam posts, rogue admins and malicious scheduled tasks from the database |
| Leaves the same passwords | Rotates hosting, SFTP, database, admin and security keys |
| Does not find the entry point | Fixes the vulnerable plugin, weak account or server setting that allowed the hack |
| Site stays blacklisted | Requests Google and blocklist reviews and monitors until warnings are gone |
Hardening and prevention
Plugins are the main risk: Patchstack counted 11,334 new WordPress vulnerabilities in 2025, 91% of them in plugins. Attackers exploit popular flaws within hours of disclosure, as the supply-chain attack in my article on 30+ backdoored plugins shows. Hardening therefore covers fast updates or virtual patching through a firewall, two-factor authentication for every admin, least-privilege roles, secure file permissions and tested backups. The full checklist is in my WordPress security guide.
Do not delete the hacked site or restore an old backup blindly. A backup taken after the infection brings the backdoor back, and deleting everything destroys the evidence needed to find the entry point.
Ongoing security for your business
Security is not a one-time job. For continuous protection I offer maintenance and security monitoring plans, and at server level I harden VPS and cPanel/WHM servers through my server management service. For company networks, firewalls and ransomware protection, see IT infrastructure and network security.
Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you clean a hacked WordPress website?
Urgent cases are handled first, and you get a time estimate right after the assessment. A cleanup usually takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the size of the site, the type of infection and the access available. Removal of Google warnings then depends on Google processing the review request.
Will I lose my content or orders during malware removal?
No, the aim is to keep all legitimate content, products, customers and orders. I back up the site before any change and replace only infected or untrusted code, then check the database record by record for injected content.
How do I remove the Google "This site may be harmful" warning?
The site must be completely clean first, then a review is requested through the Security Issues report in Google Search Console. I handle the cleanup and the review request, and I also check other blocklists and your email reputation.
Why does my site get hacked again after cleaning?
Usually because a backdoor was left behind or the entry point, such as a vulnerable plugin or stolen password, was never fixed. My cleanup always includes finding and closing the entry point, rotating credentials and hardening the site.
How much does malware removal cost?
It depends on the size of the site, how deep the infection is, whether the server is also affected and whether you need blacklist removal and monitoring. I send a custom quote after a quick free assessment of your site.
