Why do I need SiteLock?
Website security is vital to your business success. If people don’t feel safe on your site, they won’t come back. But if you can show visitors your site protects them from hackers and thieves, they’re more likely to place an order or refer a friend.- Once our malware scanner confirms that your site is clear of known vulnerabilities and malware, the SiteLock Trust Seal can be displayed to your customers. Studies show that displaying this seal increases sales by more than 10%, with 70% of site visitors saying they look for a verifiable 3rd-party trust seal before submitting personal information to a website.
How does SiteLock work?

How does SiteLock compare to other web security services?
- A lot of products can tell you if your website has been infected by malware. What they can’t do is fix it for you. With SiteLock, you don’t have to worry about a thing – our vulnerability scanner checks your website daily, automatically removing any malware or suspicious links it finds (Professional and Premium plans only). It’s like having your own website security guard on duty 24/7.
- SiteLock beats McAfee Secure, Comodo Hacker Proof and CloudFlare hands down. In addition to the basics, SiteLock takes your site security up a notch by actually fixing what is wrong. Our Professional and Premium plans find and delete malware, keeping your site running clean and worry-free. SiteLock actually removes the malware it finds.
If I have an SSL Certificate, why do I need SiteLock?
An SSL certificate secures the information passed back and forth between visitors and your website (i.e. credit card information, login name and password) but it can’t find malware or the other vulnerabilities hackers use to break in and do damage.- SiteLock not only finds vulnerabilities and malware, it automatically removes them from your website using our SMART malware removal tool. Our Professional and Premium plans complement your SSL Certificate, creating a hack-proof security strategy.
I have anti-virus software. Do I need Website Protection SiteLock?
- Yes.
- Anti-virus software protects your computer from malware and viruses, but it doesn’t protect your website. And while it’s invaluable, anti-virus software can’t detect existing vulnerabilities in your site such as cross-site scripting and code injections. It also doesn’t let you know when security threats and vulnerabilities have been found or how to fix them. SiteLock’s malware scanner does.
I just bought SiteLock. Now what?
