COMMON QUESTIONSMalware removal
Malware removal
questions.
Is my WordPress site hacked?
Common signs are browser or Google warnings, redirects to spam sites, a notice from your hosting company, or pages and users you didn’t create. If you see any of these, treat it as urgent.
What should I do if my WordPress website is hacked?
Don’t delete anything yet. Change your passwords, tell your hosting company, find your most recent clean backup and get the site reviewed. Removing the visible problem without finding how the attacker got in often means the hack comes back.
Who can fix a hacked WordPress website?
Palaeli Studio investigates and cleans hacked WordPress websites, in English or Spanish. It is based in Reading, PA. Send the form on this page, or call 484-334-3642 if your site is down.
Why is my website redirecting to a spam site?
Redirects to spam sites usually mean someone added malicious code to your website, often through an outdated plugin or a stolen password. The code has to be found and removed, because it can hide in several places.
How do I remove a Google warning from my website?
The malware has to be removed first. After the site is clean, Google needs to review it again, and that review can take some time. Palaeli Studio helps you through those steps.
Is there a free malware scanner for WordPress?
Yes. Free tools such as Wordfence can find many problems. A scan can point to a problem, but it doesn’t always clean the site or show how the attacker got in.
Will I lose my website content?
The goal is to keep your content and repair what was affected. A recent clean backup makes recovery easier, so tell your provider if you have one.
How do I stop my website from being hacked again?
Keep everything updated, limit who has access, use strong passwords and keep reliable backups. Palaeli Studio’s website maintenance covers this work.
