I didn&#8217;t know about some of the ways they can get into your blog.</p><p>I also thought that you would know if your blog had been hacked. But that is not necessarily true. Sometimes they just get in and add a lot of keywords and such to your footer or other parts of your blog and you never know it unless you have some means of detecting their presence. I have bought some software to make my blogs less prone to hacker getting in. I haven&#8217;t had a chance to try it yet, but I will in the next few days.</p><p>In my research I found some very good tips and some blogs and post with good tips.</p><p>Here are some great WordPress security tips that I found that are simple, effective and DEFINITELY worthwhile employing.</p><p>You can find them at: <a
href="http://www.dawnprofies.com/news/wordpress-security-tips">http://www.dawnprofies.com/news/wordpress-security-tips</a></p><p>Some tips are slightly more advanced in their implementation, but everyone will find something in here to make your website somewhat more secure.</p><blockquote><p>1. Steven Sanders with <a
