Taking Care Of Your WordPress Security

The thing about having several blogs is that have a greater outreach. There may be a little overlap as some people may subscribe to several of my blogs but overal this is not the case. Having that in mind I want to share a post I did on my WassupBlog called Securing Your WordPress Blog Against Hackers. I am reproducing this post as I feel it is something all WordPress owners should be aware of.

A blogger’s worst fear is to have their WordPress blog hacked. This has happened to many bloggers and they will tell you of the painstaking steps involved in getting their blog back from the virtual dead, if that was at all possible. Some of the less technically inclined will give it up for lost and start again.

Today I came across a really good post titled How to Stop Your WordPress Blog Getting Hacked that outlines several steps of making your blog less ‘hackable’. I’ve already taken the steps of making my blog less noticeable to hackers by removing the footprints that would lead them to this blog. Very simple steps that I could easily go into more detail on how it can be done but I think you would be a lot better informed if you went directly to David’s post and read all about how you can secure your blog from hackers.
