I have had two WordPress blogs hacked into previously. That was in a time when I was doing almost no internet advertising, and until I found time to deal with the situation (weeks later), these sites were penalized in the major search engines. They were not eliminated the evaluations were reduced.
Cloning, as it applies to secure your wordpress website, is the act of making an exact replica of your WordPress install. What's good is that in just a couple clicks, you can do it with the right software. There are a lot of reasons. Here are just a few.
It all will start with the basics. Try using complex passwords. Use spaces, numbers, special characters, and letters and combine them to create a password that is unique. You could use.
Move your wp-config.php file one directory up from the WordPress root. WordPress will search for it there if it can't be found in the root directory. Additionally, nobody else will have the ability to read the document unless they've FTP or SSH access to your server.
Make a note of your new password to the next time you sign in! I suggest the free or paid version of the software *Roboform* to remember company website your passwords.
However, I advise that you set up the Login LockDown plugin rather than any.htaccess controls. why not try this out Login requests will be stopped by that from being allowed from a certain IP-ADDRESS for an hour or so after three failed login attempts. You can still access your admin cell while from your office, and yet you have great protection against hackers if you accomplish this.
