secure your WordPress website

How much do you rely on your website to keep your business successful?

And what would happen if an evil person hacked into your pet sitting website and made it inaccessible?

You and I both view our websites as vital to the health of our business. Keeping it healthy and online is a requirement, at the bare minimum.

Having a WordPress-powered website is one of the smartest things you can do to help your business grow (for reasons I’ll spell out in another article).

But with any website, security is a daily responsibility. For those using my WordPress-powered SEO Template, you do not need to worry about security or the change spelled out in the video below.

We have several daily actions in place that keep your site, and the server, safe and secure.

However, if you are not one of our website clients, please check your WordPress username.

Change Your Default Username ‘Admin’

By default, WordPress creates the first user account ‘admin’ with a new installation. Many users will use that account username to login.

If you do not change this, you are leaving yourself open to more security vulnerability.

If you have the username ‘admin’ in your account, please change it and delete it immediately.

This video shows you exactly why you need to do it, and how to easily do it.
