Hacked WordPress Site?
We Fix It Fast.
Emergency recovery service for UK businesses. We remove malware, close backdoors, get you off Google's blacklist, and restore your site — typically within 4 to 12 hours.
Signs Your WordPress Site Has Been Hacked
Hacks are not always obvious. Look for these indicators — any one of them warrants immediate investigation.
Our Emergency WordPress Recovery Process
A structured, forensic approach — not a quick fix that leaves backdoors in place.

We assess the damage, identify the infection type, and isolate the compromised components to stop further spread.
Backup
A full backup is taken before we touch anything — preserving your data and creating a forensic baseline.
Deep Clean
Every file, database table, and cron job is scanned and cleaned. We find backdoors that automated tools miss.
Harden
We patch the entry point, update all software, tighten file permissions, and implement WAF rules to block repeat attacks.
Restore
Your site goes back online clean. We submit blacklist removal requests and monitor for 30 days.
Fixed Fee. 30-Day Guarantee.

Start Emergency RecoveryUK Hacked Site Recovery — GDPR and the 72-Hour Rule
If your compromised WordPress site was handling personal data — contact form submissions, customer accounts, WooCommerce orders — you may have a legal obligation to notify the ICO within 72 hours of discovering the breach under UK GDPR.
Every recovery we perform includes a written forensic incident report documenting what was found, what was removed, what data was potentially at risk, and the steps we took to remediate. This gives you the evidence trail you need if you face regulatory scrutiny.

How quickly can you start recovering my hacked WordPress site?
We begin work within 2 hours of your request during UK business hours. For critical situations — site down, Google blacklisted, WooCommerce offline — we offer a priority emergency track that starts within 30 minutes.
How long does hacked WordPress site recovery take?
Most sites are fully recovered within 4 to 12 hours. Severely compromised sites with multiple backdoors, database injections, or server-level compromise may take up to 24 hours for a thorough forensic cleanup.
My site was hacked before and it came back. Why does this keep happening?
Repeat hacks almost always mean a backdoor was missed during the previous cleanup. Attackers plant hidden PHP shells in unexpected locations — inside image upload folders, as fake plugin files, or injected directly into the database. Our forensic approach finds and removes all backdoors, not just the visible infection.
Will I lose any data during the recovery?
No. We take a complete backup before touching anything. Our approach is surgical — we clean infected files rather than delete them, preserving all your content, media, and database records.
Can you remove my site from Google's blacklist?
Yes. Once we confirm the site is clean, we submit a review request to Google Search Console. Most blacklist removals are approved within 24 to 72 hours. We also handle McAfee SiteAdvisor, Norton Safe Web, and other major blocklists.
Do you fix the vulnerability that allowed the hack?
Yes — closing the entry point is a core part of every recovery. We patch the specific vulnerability, update all outdated core files, plugins and themes, remove abandoned components, and harden your server configuration.
Does a WordPress hack trigger a GDPR breach notification to the ICO?
If your compromised site was processing personal data (contact form submissions, customer accounts, order records), you may be required to notify the ICO within 72 hours under UK GDPR. We include a written forensic incident report with every recovery to support your compliance obligations.
What is your 30-day guarantee?
If the same infection returns within 30 days of our cleanup, we re-clean your site at no additional charge. This covers the exact attack vector we remediated. For ongoing protection, we recommend pairing recovery with our WordPress maintenance plan.
