About the Book
Book description
A report by Sophos found that 30,000 websites get hacked every day. Don’t let yours be one of them.
Having a website is an essential part of our digital lives these days. Whether you are conducting business online, promoting a charity or event, or even just having your own personal space on the internet to talk about your life or hobbies, a website gives you a voice and a presence online. And with WordPress it’s never been easier to build a good looking, fully functional site.
But the internet also has its dangers, with hackers looking to break into and take over your site. All the time, money and energy you have put in can be lost, or worse, you can end up having to spend even more time, money and energy in cleaning up a hacked site. Wouldn’t it be better if your site were maintenance free, and able to stand up against attackers while still promoting your message or bringing in customers.

A must read for new and experienced WordPress owners, it explains what is being achieved in each section and how to do it in clear and detailed instructions. Avoid the worry of dealing with the constant level of attacks which all sites experience, or having to deal with the stress of a post-hack clean up. This book will allow you to set up your site to be maintenance free, allowing you to focus on content, promotion and all the other important things in your life.
