I got hacked (by some Hammad) twice in the past week (Landing page replaced with some obscure page with arab writing).
Not sure where to look for a solution. My Host? (Who is rubbish by the way, and about to be replaced). WordPress?
Can only hope the hacker did not get my wp-config, use my password, into my database and did things there also.
Any advice / tips?

Delete and replace all WordPress files and folders EXCEPT wp-config and wp-content.
Change ALL of your passwords.
Look into using some security plugins.

Add an index file to any folder that does not have an index file of any type. index.html or index.php should work.
