I recently noticed that someone has hacked into my website and put lines of phony text along with links to purchase generic pharmaceuticals. I’ve gone through page by page and (I think) removed the offending material, but how do I protect against this in the future?

Oh dear! Sorry to hear it! I recommend getting in touch with your host to ask about backups (just to be safe), then secure your site so it’s safe:
Once you’ve secured the site, back it up again. You’ll want to keep it properly maintained going forward: regular backups, apply updates in a timely manner, etc.
Or you’d be welcome to move your site to our services, so we can take care of maintenance and security for you:
