Quick Summary for questions that we often get from Ordinary WordPress Users.
This list is not meant for Dev's but for Admins, Content Editors and Blog Owners without coding skills.
We will add any new valuable information by other users to this discussion as we go.
Experienced users please throw in anything that should be considered.
- Keep everything up to date at all times.
- Run updates at least once a month. Biweekly is better. If possible you should do it even more often.
- Use plugins and themes that are well supported, frequently updated, have high number of active installations, are well ranked and established.
- Don’t use cheap shared hosting where multiple sites sit in the one account. Each website should have its own owner.
That’s it, hopefully you will use these practices and get your WordPress site safe. If you have any further questions or suggestions feel free to reply.
Happy Securing!
