Why work with us

24-Hour Response

We understand hacked sites cost money every hour. We reply within 4 business hours (Tasmanian time) and start triage as soon as we have access.

Complete Malware Removal

We don't just patch the symptoms. We perform forensic analysis to find every trace of malware, backdoors, and compromised files — then remove them completely.

Security Hardening

After cleanup, we implement proper security layers: custom firewall rules, two-factor authentication, file integrity monitoring, and automated threat detection.

Blacklist Removal

Google blacklist, browser warnings, and hosting suspensions hurt your business. We handle delisting requests and restore your reputation across all platforms.

Asked.

WordPress hack cleanup starts from $500 AUD for a simple infection. Complex hacks with database injections and backdoors range from $800–$1,500. We provide a fixed quote after initial assessment.
Yes. Once the malware is removed and the site is clean, we submit a review request to Google Search Console. Google usually reviews it within a few days.
Most WordPress hacks result from: outdated plugins or themes with known vulnerabilities (80%+ of cases), compromised hosting environments, weak admin passwords, or phishing attacks that captured login credentials. We identify the specific cause during cleanup.
Temporarily, possibly — but not cleaning it definitely will. Google penalises hacked sites. A quick, thorough cleanup minimises SEO impact. Most clients see rankings return to normal within 2–4 weeks after blacklist removal and reindexing.
Yes, we're based in Ulverstone, Tasmania and provide emergency WordPress security services across Australia and internationally. Remote cleanup works perfectly — we connect securely to your hosting environment to perform all work.
Most hacked sites are cleaned and back online within 24–48 hours. Simple infections can be resolved in a few hours. Complex attacks with deep backdoors or database compromise may take 2–3 days for complete remediation and hardening.
We reply within 4 business hours (Tasmanian time) and typically complete the cleanup within 24–72 hours, depending on severity.
After cleanup, we harden your site: update all software, remove unused plugins, enable a WAF (web application firewall), set up 2FA on admin accounts, and configure automated backups.
Yes. After cleanup, we submit a review request to Google Search Console. Google usually reviews and removes the warning within a few days once it verifies the site is clean. We guide you through the entire process.
Often yes. We can usually clean an infected site without needing backups. However, if files have been destroyed or encrypted (rare), having a clean backup is the fastest path to recovery. After cleanup, we always set up proper backup systems.
Yes. We regularly work with hosting providers (GoDaddy, Bluehost, SiteGround, etc.) to restore suspended accounts. We clean the site, document the fixes, and communicate with the host to get your account reinstated quickly.
Contact us immediately via onedegree. studio/contact or book an emergency call. Provide your site URL and hosting access details. We begin triage as soon as we have access — often within hours. For critical business sites, we prioritise response.
