Well not a lot new for this past week. I have been reading and researching a lot about blog hackers this past week. I didn’t know about some of the ways they can get into your blog.

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’t had a chance to try it yet, but I will in the next few days.

In my research I found some very good tips and some blogs and post with good tips.

Here are some great WordPress security tips that I found that are simple, effective and DEFINITELY worthwhile employing.

You can find them at: http://www.dawnprofies.com/news/wordpress-security-tips

Some tips are slightly more advanced in their implementation, but everyone will find something in here to make your website somewhat more secure.

2. Matt Cutts on WordPress Security

3. Skull Bits’ “Stealth Login” Plugin for WordPress

This is a subject that needs a lot of attention and I will probably cover it some more later.
