Help for your WordPress blog security:
In this day and age everyone is using WordPress. It truly is the most awesome blog software in the world. But it’s very important that you take security measures so that no one can get into your blog and do some damage. Here is a link to a new free ebook all about wordpress security:
http://blogsecurity.net/wordpress/wordpress-security-whitepaper/
TAKE THE TIME TO READ AND IMPLEMENT THOSE SAFETY MEASURES (pleeeease)
I had to write that in big letters because I don’t want you to forget and later suffer:)
All the best,
Eren

Hi Eren,
I found my Blog was hacked into the other month. It was only the fact that I saw all my Adsense ads were for Viagra etc. that gave it away. I discovered ‘thousands’ of bad links had been inserted into my blog’s footer code.
I really recommend always updating to the latest version of WP to keep on top of this sort of attack —- cool plugin here:

I know upgrading is scary but I’ve done it on 6 blogs so far with no problems ( and haven’t been hacked since).

Hi Clive:-)
This is so cool – I’ve been thinking of you all day.
I’m glad that this post was helpful to you and I’m sure that the plugin will help many people.
The next post I write will be informative and will include you and your Gurus Go Home blog and other fun people.
I haven’t forgotten about you:-)
