We see a lot of craziness in our line of work. And unfortunately, it is often hard-working business owners that are the ones victimized.

The internet really is the Wild Wild West, and it is quite scary when you don’t know what you don’t know. As a business owner, the last thing you want is for your WordPress website to be infected with malicious code injections that redirect visitors elsewhere. And when you’re a counselor and that redirection is to a very graphic adult website, it can be beyond mortifying.

Unfortunately, that’s precisely what happened to a business that recently reached out to us for support. Their website, which was powered by WordPress, had been compromised, and visitors were being redirected to various pornographic sites, potentially damaging this business’ reputation and certainly their peace of mind.

When they reached out to their web hosting company’s support department, they were left in the dark for several days, with no solid resolution in sight. That’s when they found Clarkes.Team and decided to sign up for our WordPress Secure maintenance plan, which included the resolution to this violating hack. 

Our team of experienced WordPress experts was able to fix the malicious code injections the same day, ensuring that their website was secure and back to its original state. We will now be taking care of them to ensure this doesn’t happen again with regular security updates, malware scans, and WordPress security hardening.

Behind every business website, there are real people. Such malicious activity is not a victimless crime. Sometimes the damage that is done is irreparable if proper disaster recovery isn’t in place. And again, many times, you don’t know what you don’t know until you find out the hard way. And that’s why we’re sharing this story.

With permission, we share these client stories (sensitive & identifying details removed) to help provide insight for the next business. To help ensure they do not one day find themselves feeling frustrated, helpless & violated.
