Website Malware Removal

Clean an infected, hacked or blocklisted website

If Google is showing a warning on your website, visitors are being redirected to another site, or your host has suspended your account, your site has almost certainly been compromised. WebElev8 removes the malware, finds how the attackers got in, closes that gap, and gets the Google Safe Browsing and host blocklist warnings lifted. We work on WordPress, WooCommerce and custom sites, including ones we did not build.

Why Choose Our Website Malware Removal Service?

We deliver measurable results that grow your business

01

Full Infection Scan

We scan every file, the database, and scheduled tasks for injected code, backdoors, spam pages, and unauthorised admin accounts, not just the obvious symptoms.

02

Complete Clean-Up

Malicious code is removed and modified core files are replaced with clean copies. We keep a record of every change so nothing legitimate is lost.

03

Entry Point Closed

A clean site that stays open the same way gets reinfected within days. We identify the vulnerable plugin, weak password, or stolen key that let them in and fix it.

04

Blocklist Removal

Once the site is verified clean we submit review requests to Google Safe Browsing, and to your host and any security vendor flagging the domain.

05

Clean Restore Point

When the clean-up is complete we take a fresh backup so you have a known-good version to fall back on.

06

Hardening Included

Every clean-up ends with basic hardening: file permission fixes, forced password resets, key rotation, and removal of unused plugins and themes.

What's Included

Everything you need in one thorough package

Emergency Triage

We start with a rapid assessment: what the visitor sees, what Google reports, what the host has done, and whether the site should be taken offline while we work.

File and Database Cleaning

Injected scripts, malicious redirects, SEO spam, phishing pages, and cryptominers are removed from both the file system and the database.

Backdoor Removal

Attackers leave hidden ways back in. We look for obfuscated PHP, fake plugins, altered .htaccess rules, and rogue cron jobs, and remove them all.

Core and Plugin Replacement

WordPress core, plugins, and themes are replaced with clean versions from official sources rather than trusting files an attacker had access to.

User and Access Review

We remove unauthorised admin users, reset all passwords, rotate database and API credentials, and update security keys and salts.

Vulnerability Fix

The route in is patched: an outdated plugin is updated or replaced, a leaked password is changed, or an insecure upload form is locked down.

Blocklist and Warning Clearance

We request removal from Google Safe Browsing through Search Console, and follow up with your host and any antivirus vendor still flagging the site.

Post-Clean Monitoring

We recommend a short monitoring period after the clean-up to confirm the infection has not returned before you consider the job closed.

Our Process

A proven, structured approach to delivering results

Phase 01

Assess and Contain

We confirm the compromise, review host and Search Console messages, decide whether to take the site offline temporarily, and agree the scope with you before work begins.

Phase 02

Clean the Site

We remove all malicious code from files and the database, replace core and plugin files with clean copies, and strip out every backdoor we can find.

Phase 03

Close the Gap

We identify how the attackers got in and fix it: patching, replacing, or removing the vulnerable component, and resetting every credential involved.

Phase 04

Clear Warnings and Report

Once the site is verified clean we submit blocklist review requests and give you a written summary of what was found, what was done, and what to watch for.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can you clean an infected website?
Most single-site infections are cleaned within one to two working days of us getting access. Larger sites, e-commerce stores, and cases where the host has suspended the account can take longer. If Google is showing a warning, the review to lift it usually takes Google one to three days after we submit it, and that part is outside our control.
Will I lose content or data during the clean-up?
No. We work from a copy where possible and keep a record of every file we change or remove. Legitimate content, pages, and products are preserved. The only things removed are malicious code, spam pages the attackers created, and unauthorised user accounts.
Why did my site get hacked when it looked fine?
Most website compromises happen through an outdated plugin or theme, a weak or reused password, or a vulnerability in shared hosting. The attack is usually automated, not targeted, and the injected code is often hidden so the site keeps working normally while it sends spam or redirects some visitors. That is why the warning from Google is often the first sign an owner sees.
Can you stop it happening again?
We close the specific gap that was used and apply basic hardening as part of every clean-up. Staying secure after that needs ongoing updates, monitoring, and backups, which is what our maintenance plans cover. A clean-up on its own is a fix, not a guarantee.
Do you remove the "This site may be hacked" message in Google?
Yes. Once the site is verified clean we submit a review request through Google Search Console, which is the correct route to have the warning and the Safe Browsing blocklist entry removed. We also chase your host and any security vendor still flagging the domain.
