Important Note: Before you update your WordPress version, do take a backup of your website files and database separately. For more information, feel free to contact sharat ’@’ riacube.us

Go to your cPanel and set the File permissions to 644 and folder permissions to 755. Files with 777 permissions are ready to welcome hackers to set-up malware base on your website.

3. Make ‘USERNAME’ harder for the hackers!

WordPress lets you give admin access to other user accounts. So, use a unique username instead of ‘admin’ as username for login.

4. Change wp-config.php file location

This is another file which is mostly affected by attackers and by default it is located at your_host/wordpress/wp-config.php. You can move it to the root directory i.e your_host/wp-config.php. This way, you actually befool hackers, b’cos they can’t search your file location, un-till they are in-side your system.

5. Themes and Plugins

Be aware of pirated themes and plugins. Always use themes from trusted sources. These pirated themes and plugins usually contain spam bots which can harm your website. Also, in worst case – they can steal your critical information.

6. Secure Server Connections

HTTPS is most secure way of transacting online. Use sFTP or SSH instead of FTP. Keep your website secure with SSL certificate, it’s not that expensive with us. Check our SSL Certificate page for more information.
