Are Your Websites Secure? Better to be Safe than Sorry!

December 19th, 2009

It’s time to take action. Securing your website(s) and blogsite(s) is a good precaution.This is is the type of thing I hear myself saying, “I’m such a little player (no matter how big I really am…) Why would someone choose my site?

Several months ago, my blogsite (worth reading, I might add) had been spammed many times over. I installed an akismet and the problem went away.

So I can no longer think, “This can’t happen to me.”

That’s why I’m going to follow the suggestions Michelle Shaeffer made in her blog post entitled Seven Steps to Secure WordPress. 

I suggest you do the same.

Better to be safe than sorry, don’t you think?

P.S. Michelle’s suggestions apply to WordPress blogs. You’ll need to do additional research to find out what to do to protect other blogsites and websites. Or contact your webmaster. If you don’t have one, and you’re not a techie, I’d be glad to share mine. His name is Rick and you can reach him at rich@wwwebfx.com. He’s excellent, he’s quick, he’s priced to delight your pocketbook, and he’s valuable t o have on you team. Take it from me!

P.P.S. I like to know why I’m doing what I’m doing… That’s why I asked Michelle about why people would even want to hack our sites. At her post you’ll find her answers. I guess it takes all kinds to make the world go ’round.

    A pun a day makes me a better humor being.
