What Could Happen If Someone Gains Entry Into Your Wordpress Blog?

I don't want to scare you but I want you to be aware of the reasons why you should backup your WordPress blog, and even better protect it against someone getting access to that site.

Posted 29th February 2012 at 02:59 PM by Robert Plank (Robert Plank's FREE Marketing, Copywriting and Programming Video Advice for Warriors)

Here's a quick question, if you have a WordPress blog and the username and password you use to gain entrance into that blog is Admin and Test, are you at risk for your website being taken over?
