  6. Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?

    1. Hi. We are really sorry to hear about your blog being hacked—that’s such a frustrating experience, especially after putting in so much effort. While we don’t face the same risks as you, we can definitely share some strategies to help protect your WordPress site from hackers:

      Use Strong, Unique Passwords: This may seem basic, but it’s crucial. Avoid default or easy-to-guess passwords. Use a password manager to create and store complex passwords.

      Install Security Plugins: There are several great security plugins available for WordPress, like Wordfence or Sucuri. These help monitor for suspicious activity and block known threats.

      Regular Backups: Make sure to set up automated backups through plugins like UpdraftPlus or Jetpack. Store backups both locally and in the cloud (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.), so you have them in case of emergencies.

      Keep Everything Updated: Always update WordPress core, themes, and plugins. Hackers often exploit outdated software with known vulnerabilities.

      Limit Login Attempts: Hackers often try to brute-force their way into your site. Plugins like Limit Login Attempts Reloaded can help block excessive failed login attempts.

      Use Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Adding an extra layer of security with 2FA can prevent unauthorized logins, even if someone manages to steal your password.

      Change Default Admin Username: Many hackers try “admin” as a default login. Change this to something more unique.

      Use SSL: Encrypting your site with SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) ensures that any data transferred between the user and your site is secure. Most hosts offer free SSL certificates, and this is important for keeping personal info safe.

      Monitor Your Site for Suspicious Activity: Regularly check for malware or other unusual behavior on your site. Some security plugins will do this for you, but you can also use external services like Google Search Console to check for warnings.

      Limit Plugin and Theme Installations: Only use trusted and well-reviewed plugins and themes. Badly coded or outdated plugins can open your site up to attacks.

      Set File Permissions Correctly: Ensure your WordPress files have the correct permissions set. For example, your wp-config.php file should have restricted permissions to prevent unauthorized changes.

      By implementing these steps, you’ll definitely improve your site’s security and reduce the risk of getting hacked again. It’s always a good idea to stay proactive and make security a regular part of your routine.

      Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any more questions.
