Free migration

2

Free cleanup & restore

Australian engineers remove every backdoor and injected file, restore your original homepage and content, and rotate every credential.

โ„น๏ธ Requires 12-month Managed Hosting for WordPress contract, paid monthly from $69.95/mo โ€” no lump-sum upfront. Excludes sites requiring a full code rewrite or under active DDoS; we'll let you know if your site falls outside standard rescue scope before you commit.
How the Rescue Works

From defaced to back online in three steps

A focused emergency process โ€” most hacked WordPress sites are fully restored and live again within 48 hours of handover.

๐Ÿšš
Step 1

We isolate & migrate

Your WordPress site is pulled to a clean staging environment so cleanup happens safely, off your current compromised host.

๐Ÿงน
Step 2

We clean & restore

Full malware removal, backdoor hunt, file integrity restoration, content recovery, credential rotation, vulnerability patching.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ
Step 3

We harden & relaunch

Your cleaned site goes live behind Imunify360 + Patchstack, with nightly backups and Australian human monitoring.

Everything Removed

Every trace of the hack โ€” gone

We don't just "overwrite the homepage". We hunt every backdoor and injected file attackers leave behind, so this doesn't happen again a week later.

โœ“
Defacement & graffiti pages "Hacked by" screens, political or attacker-branded homepages, injected banners — all replaced with your real content
โœ“
Backdoors & web shells The hidden files attackers use to return — we find and remove every one, not just the obvious ones
โœ“
Rogue admin users Ghost WordPress admin accounts quietly added by attackers — removed and audited
โœ“
Injected JS & PHP malware Malicious code embedded across theme files, plugins and the WordPress core — all restored to clean originals
โœ“
Pharma & spam SEO pages Hidden cloaked pages indexed by Google with foreign-language or pharmacy keywords — removed and de-indexed
โœ“
Vulnerable plugins / themes The exact weakness that let them in — patched, updated or replaced so the door stays shut
Real People, Not a Ticket Queue

Meet the engineer leading your rescue

daniel, senior wordpress engineer at conetix Your Rescue Lead
"A defacement looks catastrophic, but under the hood it's usually one vulnerable plugin and three backdoors deep. I personally work every rescue start to finish โ€” find how they got in, clean it properly, restore your real site, and make sure they can't walk back through the same door."

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

How fast can you get my hacked site back online?
Most WordPress hack/defacement rescues are cleaned, restored and relaunched within 24 to 48 hours of handover. Heavily compromised sites with thousands of infected files may take longer โ€” we give you a realistic timeline after the initial assessment, not before.
Can you restore my real homepage and content?
Yes. We recover your original site from your most recent clean backup, your previous host, or the Wayback Machine if needed โ€” then rebuild it on Conetix before going live. Most customers get their exact pre-hack site back.
What if the attackers come back?
The reason sites get re-hacked is that the original vulnerability wasn't patched and the backdoors weren't all found. We do both, and your site then sits behind Imunify360 + Patchstack with Australian human monitoring. Reinfection rates on Conetix Managed Hosting are a fraction of standard shared hosting.
Will Google penalise my site for being hacked?
If Google has already flagged you ("this site may harm your computer" / "deceptive site ahead") we also submit the Search Console review as part of the rescue. Most sites clear the warning within 72 hours of being properly cleaned.
Is the rescue really free?
Yes. The cleanup, restore and migration are all included in the standard Managed Hosting for WordPress price on a 12-month contract paid monthly from $69.95/mo. No separate cleanup invoice, no per-hour billing, no surprise bill.

Every minute hacked, more trust gone.
