Malware removal focuses on dealing with an existing infection. It is not the same as ongoing security and maintenance.
Once the infection is dealt with, it is worth reviewing how the site is protected.
Once the immediate issue has been dealt with, review the steps that can reduce the risk of another compromise.
Review WordPress, plugin and theme updates, and replace unsupported software.
Make sure you have usable backups and know how to restore them.
Check user accounts, permissions and security settings for anything that no longer belongs.
Compare care plans if you would rather have help with regular upkeep.
These measures can reduce risk, but no setup can prevent every attack.

You do not need to have everything worked out before getting help.
Unexpected redirects, spam, unfamiliar users and security warnings can indicate a compromise, but they can have other causes too. If you are unsure, ask us before booking.
Keep a note of the exact warning and tell us when you book or enquire. A warning is a reason to investigate, but it does not confirm malware on its own.
Tell us in your order or enquiry. We can explain what information or access is needed to look into the problem.
If your site has broken pages or errors without signs of compromise, Website Repair may be the better fit. If you suspect malware, start with malware removal. If you cannot tell, ask before booking.
No. Removing an infection does not guarantee it cannot happen again. Updates, backups, access checks and ongoing security can help reduce the risk.
