Fixing the Hacking Issue

Once the issue was identified, immediate actions were taken:

✔ Server cleaned (malware removed)
✔ Spam URLs removed using Google Search Console
✔ Clean sitemap submitted
✔ Indexing controlled (only important pages)
✔ Started fixing crawl and indexing issues

404 Error Fix
  • Identified broken slug/permalink issue
  • Created clean URL structure
  • Removed error pages and updated menus
SEO Setup (Yoast SEO)
  • Configured Yoast SEO plugin
  • Added meta titles & descriptions (5 pages)
  • Completed keyword research & competitor analysis
Sitemap & Indexing
  • Generated XML sitemap
  • Submitted to Google Search Console
  • Initiated crawling successfully

This project required deep technical troubleshooting, not just surface-level fixes. By systematically analysing server behaviour, DNS routing, SSL layers, and security overlaps, the core issues were identified and addressed. The case highlights the importance of understanding how hosting, SSL, DNS, and CDN layers interact in real-world websites.
