WordPress powers a huge share of the web, which also makes it a target. The good news: a few solid habits keep your business site safe. Here’s what matters.
1. Keep Everything Updated
Outdated core, themes, and plugins are the #1 way sites get hacked. Update regularly.
2. Use Strong Logins
Enforce strong passwords, avoid the “admin” username, and enable two-factor authentication.
3. Install a Security Plugin
A reputable security plugin adds a firewall, malware scanning, and login protection.
4. Take Regular Backups
Automated off-site backups mean you can recover quickly from any problem.
5. Use HTTPS
An SSL certificate encrypts data and is expected by both customers and Google.
6. Limit Access
Give users only the permissions they need, and remove accounts that are no longer used.
