If you … Happen to be a proud owner of a WordPress blog… Happen to be an enthusiast who wants to learn more about how WordPress works… Happen to be concerned about hackers getting a hold of your blog, and what those hackers will do with it… …this book was especially written for you. This book targets Wordpress 3.x specifically, however the general principles and practices are applicable to all versions of Wordpress. Besides, as you will learn from this book, why the heck would you be running an older version of Wordpress anyway? Packed with critical security information and strategies, this guide provides you with the information you need to secure your blog and keep it secured. It does not contain any hype, sales pitch, or biased affiliation with any product or service. Nor does it contain misleading information or any affiliate links. It instead, contains a no-bones-about-it approach to securing a WordPress blog with specific tools and some damn good reasons for using them. I decided to publish this information in an effort to answer some hard questions about what WordPress security means, with it requires, what it looks like, and how it functions. We're now witnessing an increase of abuse with this particular blog platform at a phenomenal level, which is annoyingly frustrating because we know this abuse could be prevented. It is therefore, my sincerest hope that you will read this guide, follow its suggestions, and essentially do your part to improve the quality of blogging that we all seek from the Internet. As Internet Marketers we spend a lot of time worrying about search engine rankings, link building and traffic. Unfortunately, there is not often time to think about the security aspects of operating in one of the most hostile business environments on the planet. Often times, our minds only turn to these topics when we have actually been hacked and our precious income earning sites have been hijacked or destroyed. Worst of all, compromised websites are quickly noticed by search engines and are either de-indexed or have their ranking severely penalised - don't let this happen to you! This book is for those who already know blogging basics, but want to make their blog(s) a secure and spam free Internet phenomenon. It is true that this guide does not cover every conceivable aspect of Wordpress security or provide copious amounts of detail on each topic covered. Nor does it cover everything there is to know about cyber security in general - in order to cover this subject in depth one would need many millions of pages indeed! This guide does, however, pick out those security principles and practices related to the Wordpress platform that provide the best bang for the buck, or the best security and piece of mind for your blogging empire for the least application of effort and time. The techniques discussed in this guide are tried and true, used by countless professionals around the planet - and used by myself as well - to improve the security of their Wordpress sites.
