Google warns visitors

Strange redirects
Visitors are redirected to unknown sites with advertising, gambling or phishing content. Often only visible on mobile.
Unknown content
Pages, links or text you did not create have appeared on your website. Often in other languages or with pharmaceutical/gambling content.
Cannot log in
Your WordPress admin password no longer works, or you find admin accounts you did not create.
Hosting suspended

How we clean a hacked website
Proven process - most sites back online the same day
1. Analysis and lockdown
We immediately isolate your site to prevent further damage. Then we identify the attack vector - how the hacker got in, what files have been changed and what data may be affected.
2. Cleanup and restoration
We remove all malicious code, backdoors and compromised files. We restore clean versions from backup and verify every file against known clean states.
3. Security hardening
We update WordPress, all plugins and themes. We change all passwords, remove unnecessary accounts, configure firewall rules and patch the vulnerability that allowed the attack.
4. Monitoring and prevention
We activate WF SecurityCloud for continuous protection. This includes real-time monitoring, automatic threat blocking and alerts if anything suspicious happens again.
Protect yourself against future attacks
A hacked website is stressful, but it is also an opportunity to build proper security. Here is what we recommend after cleanup:
- WF SecurityCloud - AI-driven protection that blocks threats 24/7
- Managed hosting - your site on our own Swedish servers with monitoring and backups
- Web maintenance - regular updates of WordPress, plugins and PHP
- Strong passwords and two-factor authentication on all admin accounts
Most hacks happen because WordPress or plugins are outdated. With our web maintenance and WF SecurityCloud, your site stays protected.
Questions about hacked websites
How much does it cost to fix a hacked website?
Cleanup typically costs between SEK 2,500 and 8,000 depending on the extent of the damage. We always give a quote after initial analysis so you know the cost before we begin.
How long does it take to clean a hacked site?
Most WordPress sites are cleaned and back online within 4-8 hours. Complex cases with deep infections or multiple sites may take 1-2 days. We start as soon as you contact us.
Will I lose my content and data?
In most cases, no. We restore from clean backups and only remove malicious code. If no backup exists, we manually clean each file. We always preserve your content.

Common signs are Google warnings, strange redirects, unknown pages, changed passwords or unusually high server load. If in doubt, contact us for a free initial assessment.
