You may have missed my point. Sucuri didn't fix my problem either, but when I hired Michael (see link in my response above) he had the expertise to fix it. I agree with EGOL that in some cases you need to hire a pro.
(I have no allegiance or connection to Michael other than the fact that he saved me so much headache after weeks of struggling with malware that other people couldn't fix.)

I did also hired sucuri, but it was not worthing, becuase with the instaled pluggin they keep geting control of my web
now they can not get in my web just because they are being blocked by OSE wp firewall

I can recommend someone very good. My website was affected by malware. I first contacted my host and they did a few things that we thought fixed the problem but it came back. Then I hired sucuri. I believe that for many virus problems sucuri is good, but they couldn't get this one. It came back every single day and got harder and harder to detect.
A friend recommended Michael VanDeMar. (You can contact him here.) It took him a little while but he uncovered the problem. It was a sneaky malware that would only appear on computers using internet explorer, and not all the time. Plus, it would hide itself when someone from the host's IP was trying to find it. Michael fixed it for me. His rates were really fair. It cost me just a little bit more than sucuri.

If you do a full reinstall it might work.
The problem could be in the pluggins as they are installed - or they could have vulnerability that is exploited after install. If you were running an old version of wordpress, it could have holes.
The problem could be on your computer and it gets into your wordpress when you upload files, the server could have openings that are being exploited.
There are so many ways for these things to happen.

You think that if i install wordpress again and all pluggins again this will stop?
in the last hour another 250 attacks to different urls
Any recommendation of someone who can handle this for me?
thanks

I would hire a pro.
These types of problems can be very difficult to solve and can come from a variety of sources.
I would contact them and ask how much to clean a wordpress install. I bet the price is lower than you think.

Inbound links with malicious anchor text. Negative seo attack
Hi, What to do with more than 300 links with a malicious anchor text that has nothing to do with my content. I am disavowing those links for the last 5 years. Some of them are directed to URLs that have been changed more than 8 years ago. How can I block this malicious behavior? Thanks in advance

How to make second site in same niche and do white hat SEO
Hello, As much as we would like, there's a possibility that our site will never recover from it's Google penalties. Our team has decided to launch a new site in the same niche. What do we need to do so that Google will not mind us having 2 sites in the same niche? (Menu differences, coding differences, content differences, etc.) We won't have duplicate content, but it's hard to make the sites not similar. Thanks

Malicious bot attack?
Several of our websites have experienced a major direct load traffic spike in the last 30 days - roughly 40K new visitors for each site. The bots are emulating IE9 and appear to be hitting our home page and bouncing 100% of the time. The traffic is double our usual volume, or more. Our bounce rates, conversion rate, page views, etc have suffered accordingly. The volume hasn't affected site performance, yet. Since the traffic is direct load, I can't see this being a negative SEO attack. Plus, our search visibility for everything but our brands is abysmal - there aren't any real rankings to tank. Our engineers are saying that the IP addresses are diverse, and they aren't seeing any pattern. I also checked GA for traffic locations, and we aren't seeing anything unusual from overseas.It appears that the attack is US based. Has anyone seen this before?

Can I get updated opinions on PR Web?
I saw Moz has discussed PR web in earlier posts, but they are mostly months to years old. I'm wondering if PR Web is a good service? A lot of my competitors use it, but it seems just like a paid link to me. If for whatever reason, PR Web is an approved loophole, does anyone have any suggestions on which plan to purchase? Thanks, Ruben

Victim of Negative SEO - Can I Redirect the Attacked Page to an External Site?
My site has been a victim of Negative SEO. During the course of 3 weeks, I have received over 3000 new backlinks from 200 referring domains (based on Ahref report). All links are pointing to just 1 page (all other pages within the site are unaffected). I have already disavowed as many links as possible from Ahref report, but is that all I can do? What if I continue to receive bad backlinks? I'm thinking of permanently redirecting the affected page to an external website (a dummy site), and hope that all the juice from the bad backlinks will be transferred to that site. Do you think this would be a good practice? I don't care much about keeping the affected page on my site, but I want to make sure the bad backlinks don't affect the entire site. The bad backlinks started to come in around 3 weeks ago and the rankings haven't been affected yet. The backlinks are targeting one single keyword and are mostly comment backlinks and trackbacks. Would appreciate any suggestions 🙂 Howard

Attacked with spam links.
Our website was hit with the "Pharma hack", "Google Cloaking Hack", or "Blackhat SEO Spam". and Google showed in the results this website may be compromised. After cleaning out the hack from the website I chacked with the Seomoz tool Open Site Explorer and I found that they hacked 1000 of other websites and created links to my website. They were building a few 1000 links to the website with the clickable text "buy cheap online pharmacy". and more like that. This website www.washington23.com has been hacked and gives over 200 links to your website for pharmacy items. And Google considers this from your impotent links as i can see in webmasters. What can I do about it?
