Your site has been running for years. Is it still healthy?
Outside-in monitoring for WordPress and other long-running websites. Wardzo finds exposed config backups, SEO spam and cloaking, expiring SSL and downtime, without installing a plugin.
Many business websites run for years with nobody looking at them. Plugins age, certificates renew (or do not), and attackers look for old installs to inject spam links or redirects that only search engines see.
What Wardzo catches on WordPress sites
- Config backups such as
wp-config.php.bakthat expose database credentials. - SEO spam and cloaking, where Googlebot is shown pharma or casino content that visitors never see.
- Malicious redirects that send search visitors somewhere else.
- Expiring certificates, downtime and slow responses.
- Accidental
noindexfrom the "Discourage search engines" setting.
No plugin required
Because Wardzo works from the outside, it does not slow your site down, does not need updates, and still works if the site itself has been compromised.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to install a WordPress plugin?
No. Wardzo checks the site from the outside, so there is nothing to install or update, and it keeps working even if the site's admin is compromised.
Can Wardzo clean a hacked site?
No. Wardzo detects and explains problems. Cleanup should be done by your host, developer or a specialist service.
