Preventing Hacks

A hack is when someone who you don’t want to have access to your information, gains access through brute force. These hackers use many tactics when attempting to hack into your website, but most times they depend on simple vulnerabilities that come from poorly developed plug-ins, or an outdated plug-in, or even an outdated version of WordPress (don’t worry we can fix it). Most people neglect these updates and feel that they aren’t important. Well, they absolutely are, and they can expose you to an innumerous amount of threats. Stop, don’t do it! You’re probably thinking this “oh okay, so all I need to do is update my plugins and WordPress.” Don’t do that… Even though that is the way to fix it, you shouldn’t do it yourself. Let me explain.

Correctly Updating

When you’re dealing with a website that has gained SEO value and is trafficked even if the traffic isn’t large. Whenever you update a plugin you need to update it on a server level, and you have to know what you’re doing, or you can crash your site! This is even more important when the update in question is the major WordPress Update. We warn you, DO NOT DO THIS UPDATE! Sorry for yelling, but this update needs to be done correctly, you need to backup your entire site (full backup) in multiple places, in case one of them fails, this in itself can take several hours, then you can proceed to update WordPress. But if you crash your website, you then need to fix it (that’s a topic for a different article). Know that’s the DIY version, here are the steps to getting it done through UltraWeb.

 

  1. Call UltraWeb
