What can I say… WordPress security is a beast and well, it just sounds scary especially if you’re a beginner or even if you’re not a beginner (it scares me still, LOL). But guess what? If you own a WordPress blog or website.. get over it, you have to just dive in and do it because WordPress security is very important, you need to stay one step ahead of those nasty hackers!
DON’T PANIC!!
There are a lot of really great websites out there that go over HOW to secure your site! I will give you 2 really good ones that will help and get you on your way to a more secure site.
