Posted 29th February 2012 at 03:00 PM by Robert Plank (Robert Plank's FREE Marketing, Copywriting and Programming Video Advice for Warriors)

Install these three simple plugins to WordPress to minimize the risk of hacking and intrusion. It's never fun for someone to get access to your WordPress blog, but unfortunately it happens every day. Every day websites are deleted, defaced or simply taken over and you can avoid that by installing the login lockdown plugin, the HTTPS for WordPress plugin and the WP-Security plugin.

Create And Use A Safe WordPress Login And Password

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

An easy way to keep WordPress safe is to use a few built-in tools. First...

How to Justify the Cost and Time of a WordPress Backup Plugin

Posted 29th February 2012 at 02:55 PM by Robert Plank (Robert Plank's FREE Marketing, Copywriting and Programming Video Advice for Warriors)

I know that I heard about backups and backup plugins for many years before actually using them and I regretted waiting as long as I did, because in the meantime I lost websites and I lost files. If I had simply run a backup every week I would not have had to worry about lost information.
