There are millions of blogs all around the Internet.
Some people are making money through it and some don't.
Most of the bloggers use WordPress at the moment.
No matter what kind of person you are, you need to make sure that your blog is secure.
In this article I will provide you with some details about how you can make your WordPress blog more secure.
One step you can take is to delete the default administrator account.
This is important because if you do not do it, malicious user already know a user name which they could try to crack.
Before you can delete the default admin account, you first need to create a new user with administrator rights.
To do this go to your WordPress Dashboard and click on User -> Create New User.
Then enter all the information you need to enter.
Afterward, you can now delete the default admin account by clicking on Administrator and then search for a delete button.
Another step to take to make WordPress more secure is to always upgrade WordPress to the latest version.
The reason behind this is that with every new upgrade there also come fixes for old security holes making it essential to update early.
You should not only upgrade WordPress but also the plug-ins you are using.
The developer of plug-ins tend to correct mistakes thus eliminating old problems.
There is another problem you have with WordPress.
People always know where they can login and they also could just visit your login form and try a different combination of user accounts and passwords out.
In order to prevent this from happening you need to install Login Lockdown.
It's a plugin that only allows users to try to login with a wrong password three times.
After that the IP address will be banned from the server for a certain amount of time.
