How would you feel if one day you found out that your blog or website that you have worked on for so many years has been hacked? I was just imagining how awful you will feel when you realize how much you have lost because that is exactly what my friend felt when their blog was hacked a few months ago.

After I spent a lot of money on SEO schemes and tools to generate good traffic and steady income, a hacker suddenly stole my credentials and took everything away from me. If you don't want the same thing to happen to you, then now is the right time for you to increase your website security.

There are several ways you can improve the security of your website. For example, if you use WordPress, one of the things you can do is use WordPress security plugins or get any wordpress malware removal service.

These are free or paid plugins that are specifically designed to keep your website secure and free of malicious scripts, thus preventing cybercriminals from attacking your website's vulnerabilities.

Most WordPress site owners are strongly advised to use only one security plugin. This is because installing too many plugins can potentially hurt your search engine ranking and slow down your page loading. Perhaps one of the best security plugin options available today is the WordPress Security Checkup.

It is specifically designed to increase the security level of your WordPress site by scanning it for vulnerabilities and suggesting remedial measures to fix them. Some of these remedies include changing admin passwords, modifying file permissions, database security and version hiding, increasing admin protection/security, and also removing the WordPress generator META tag from the code base.

In addition to using WordPress Security Scan, you must take into account that nothing will work perfectly when it comes to website maintenance and protection from hacker attacks. Keep in mind that hackers looking for WordPress sites to play with and loot aren't just personally scanning your site for vulnerabilities. In fact, they use automated bots that constantly look for holes where they can easily access your website, attack its vulnerabilities and steal the most sensitive information.

In this case, it is very important that you increase your defenses against these silent attacks by ensuring that your plug-in versions are always updated with the latest fixes for known holes that hackers are looking for.

You also have to keep creating new admins using a good combination that even your significant other will never guess. Most importantly, you must be aware that old and inactive themes pose serious security risks; therefore, you must immediately remove them from your WordPress admin panel.
