Website hacked? We’ll help you

If your website has been hacked, it is important to track down and thoroughly restore every affected file as quickly as possible. Tracing any ‘back doors’ must not be forgotten either — after all, you do not want to be hacked again.

This includes the changes needed to prevent new hacks. All handled with the greatest care and the least possible damage. Fixing a hacked website is charged as a fixed amount, not an hourly rate.

Request it in three steps

You request webmaster support through a help ticket in your account. Describe as clearly as possible what the problem is or what you would like us to do. We reply within 2 hours — often sooner.

Once we receive your ticket, our team reviews the request and gives an estimate of the time needed. We charge €39.95 excl. VAT per half hour, or part thereof.

Is it an emergency — your website completely offline or hacked? Say so clearly in the ticket so we can give it priority.

1

Create a help ticket

Log in to your account and create a help ticket. Describe the problem as fully as possible: what is not working, when did it start and what have you already tried?

2

We review your request

Our team reviews the request and gives an estimate of the time and costs involved. In urgent situations we respond as quickly as possible.

3

We solve it

Once you approve, we get to work. You are kept informed of the progress via the ticket system and receive a notification when everything has been resolved.

Completely taken care of — and cheaper than most backup software

Our process starts with a one-off webmaster check. We take a thorough look at the current state of your pages, theme and plugins. Any problems are resolved and security is optimised to the maximum. After that we take on all technical management tasks.

From then on we check your website on a regular basis — every two weeks, or sooner if needed. We create backups and run updates for WordPress, the theme and the plugins. We monitor the website closely to prevent problems. And if something does go wrong, we fix it quickly.

If outdated plugins need to be replaced — plugins the developer no longer maintains or updates, which is a potential risk — we contact you first.

We can also change texts and images on request. This runs through webmaster support, for which we charge €39.95 excl. VAT per half hour or part thereof.

1

Webmaster check first

We review your pages, theme and plugins, resolve existing problems and turn security up to the maximum. Only then does the subscription start.

2

Maintenance every two weeks

Backups, updates for WordPress, the theme and the plugins, and continuous monitoring. More often than fortnightly when the situation calls for it.

3

Always discussed in advance

Does an outdated plugin need replacing, or would you like a change made? You always receive an estimate of the time and costs first.

Standard service is already part of your plan

A lot of technical help is already included in your hosting or email plan. Webmaster support is meant for things that fall outside that standard service.

Questions about webmaster support

The most frequently asked questions about our technical assistance.

What does webmaster support cost?
Webmaster support costs €39.95 excluding VAT per half hour, or part thereof. There are no subscription fees or fixed monthly charges — you only pay for the time actually spent on your request.
How quickly will I get a reply?
After you submit a ticket, we reply within 2 hours. We are often quicker than that. In urgent situations such as a hacked website or a complete outage, make this clear in the ticket so we can give it priority.
How do I request webmaster support?
Log in to your Domein Direct account and create a help ticket. Describe as fully as possible what the problem is or what you would like us to do. After we receive it, our team reviews the request and gets back to you.
Is software installation always paid?
No. Software available in our app store is installed free of charge. Think of WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, PrestaShop and more than 100 other applications. Only installations outside the app store or more complex configurations fall under webmaster support.
My website has been hacked. What should I do?
Create a help ticket right away and state that your website has been hacked. We respond as quickly as possible. We track down and restore every affected file, trace any back doors and take measures to prevent new hacks. This is charged as a fixed amount of €145.00 excl. VAT — not an hourly rate.
What does a maintenance subscription cost?
Maintenance for websites and blogs with up to 15 plugins starts from €20.00 excl. VAT per month. For web shops and sites with more than 15 plugins it starts from €27.50 excl. VAT per month. A DIVI licence is included where applicable. See maintenance and management for exactly what is covered.
What is the difference between webmaster support and a maintenance subscription?
Webmaster support is charged per half hour and is meant for one-off jobs. A maintenance subscription is ongoing: we check your website every two weeks, create backups, run updates and monitor everything. Individual changes to texts or images are handled under webmaster support even within a subscription, at €39.95 per half hour.
Is my question covered by the free service or by webmaster support?
Not sure? Just ask via a ticket. We will check whether it falls under the standard service or whether webmaster support is needed. We always inform you about any costs in advance.
