SERVING MINNEAPOLIS, MN
WordPress Malware Removal Services in Minneapolis
Across Minneapolis and St. Paul, WordPress runs everything from retail and restaurant sites to nonprofit and membership sites. When one gets hacked, redirected or flagged by Google, donations and orders stop with it. I remove the malware, close the entry point and get Twin Cities sites back online, working around Central Time.

WORDPRESS SECURITY FOR MINNEAPOLIS
Built for how Minneapolis businesses actually run
Twin Cities nonprofits and small organizations often run WordPress with donation, event or membership plugins managed by volunteers or a part-time staffer. Those plugins handle personal data and are frequent targets when they fall behind on updates. A cleanup here should end with simple, automatic protection that doesn't depend on one busy person remembering to log in.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
- Full malware scan across core files, themes, plugins, and the database
- Removal of injected code, spam, redirects, and hidden backdoors
- Finding and closing the entry point that let the attacker in
- Google blacklist / “deceptive site” warning review and removal
- Post-cleanup hardening — updates, access, firewall, and backups
- A plain-language summary of what happened and how it's fixed
PRICING
What WordPress malware removal costs in Minneapolis
Same fixed-price tiers for every US client. You get the exact price after a free look at your site, before any work starts.
Basic cleanup
$100–300
A single WordPress site with a straightforward, recent infection — one entry point, limited spread, and a clean backup available.
Standard recovery
$300–800
A deeper compromise — multiple infected files, hidden backdoors, spam injection, or a Google security warning that needs a review request.
Complex / emergency
$800–2,500+
Severe or business-critical cases — e-commerce stores, multiple sites, deep or repeated compromises, and situations where downtime is costing money right now.
After the cleanup: WordPress maintenance for Minneapolis businesses
Most reinfections come from plugins nobody updated. A monthly care plan keeps your Minneapolis site updated, backed up and monitored, so the next problem is caught before Google or your customers see it. See WordPress maintenance plans.
MINNESOTA DATA BREACH LAW
Hacked site in Minneapolis? What Minnesota law expects of you
If a breach exposes Minnesota residents' unencrypted personal information, you must notify them as quickly as possible, with no fixed day count. If you notify more than 500 people at once, you must also tell the nationwide consumer reporting agencies within 48 hours.
- The law
- Minn. Stat. § 325E.61
- What counts as personal information
- First name or initial and last name combined with a Social Security number, a driver's license or Minnesota ID number, or a financial account, credit or debit card number with any required code or password. Encrypted data is excluded unless the key was also acquired.
- Notifying affected people
- In the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay. Notice may be delayed to a date certain if a law enforcement agency determines that notice would impede a criminal investigation.
- Notifying the state
- The statute does not require notice to the Attorney General. If more than 500 people are notified at one time, notify the nationwide consumer reporting agencies within 48 hours of the timing, distribution and content of the notices.

A calm, methodical recovery — not guesswork
Assess
A quick look at what's actually going on — the symptoms, the scope, and how urgent it is — so you get a clear, honest picture before any work starts.
Back up & clean
I take a full forensic backup, then remove all malware, injected code, and backdoors across files and the database — carefully, so nothing breaks.
Close the door
I find the entry point — the outdated plugin, weak login, or vulnerability that was actually used — and close it, because cleaning without that is temporary.
Harden & verify
I harden the site, request any blacklist review, and verify it's clean across devices — then hand it back with a summary you can actually understand.
FAQ
WordPress security in Minneapolis — common questions
We're a Minneapolis nonprofit with a small budget. Can you help?
Yes. Cleanup is fixed-price, so you know the cost before any work starts, and after it I can set up low-maintenance protection (backups, updates and monitoring) that fits a small team.
Do you work remotely, or do you need to be local?
All of this work is done remotely and securely — it doesn't require anyone on-site. What matters is access to your site and hosting and a methodical process, both of which work the same anywhere in the US.
How much does WordPress malware removal cost?
Most cleanups fall between $100–300 for a simple single-site infection, $300–800 for a deeper compromise with backdoors or a Google warning, and $800–2,500+ for complex or business-critical cases. You get a clear, fixed price after a quick assessment — see the full pricing guide for details.
Will the hack come back after you clean it?
Not if the entry point is closed. Reinfections happen when a cleanup removes the visible malware but leaves a backdoor or unpatched vulnerability behind. Finding and closing that entry point — plus hardening — is what makes the fix hold.
