What this service is for

Website security is continuous risk reduction: patching, access control, malware monitoring, least privilege, safe file permissions and a recovery plan when something goes wrong.

Most compromises on small business sites aren’t cinematic zero-days — they’re outdated plugins, reused passwords, abandoned admin accounts and missing backups.

66sites folds security into subscription care so hardening isn’t a one-time PDF audit that nobody implements.

How this connects to growth & SEO

Security incidents can erase SEO progress overnight via spam injections or downtime. Care plans protect that continuity.

We never claim security work improves rankings directly; it protects the site that rankings depend on.

Any site collecting leads, payments or personal data — especially WordPress estates and businesses that can’t afford a malware-induced offline week.

  4. Patch. Keep dependencies current safely.
  5. Respond. Contain and recover if needed.
  6. Improve. Remove structural insecurity over time.

Security fundamentals are part of care across Starter ($199/year), Growth ($299/year) and Pro ($399/year), with deeper monitoring and faster response on higher tiers. Active malware cleanups on inherited infected sites often require a setup/remediation fee before steady-state care. Enterprise covers stricter governance needs.

  • Shared admin logins and no 2FA.

Our approach at 66sites

We baseline risk: users, plugins/apps, file integrity, login protection and backup restore readiness. Then we harden in priority order.

Monitoring catches anomalies early; maintenance keeps patch debt low. Development remediates structural issues insecure themes introduce.

If an incident occurs, we focus on containment, clean restore, credential rotation and postmortems — not shame.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about scope, pricing, ownership and what a subscription includes for this page.

Ask us anything →

Can you make a site unhackable?

No. Security reduces likelihood and impact. Anyone promising invulnerability is selling fiction.

Do you include a WAF?

When appropriate for the stack and plan. WAFs help; they don’t replace updates and access control.

What happens if we get malware?

Contain, clean or restore from known-good backups, rotate credentials, review how it entered, monitor for reinfection.

Is WordPress insecure?

WordPress is widely targeted because it’s popular. Secure configurations and patching make it perfectly viable; neglect does not.

Do you run penetration tests?

We perform practical hardening and can coordinate third-party pen tests when your compliance needs require them.

Will security work break plugins?

Sometimes stricter rules conflict with poorly written extensions. We resolve carefully rather than leaving doors open.

How does security relate to SEO?

Compromised sites can be deindexed or lose trust. Security protects organic presence you’ve earned — it doesn’t create rankings.

Are security plugins enough?

Plugins help with scanning and login protection but aren’t a strategy alone. Process and hosting matter.
