Website security means keeping strangers from changing your site, reading its data or using it to attack your visitors.
Size doesn’t protect a site. About 13,000 WordPress sites are hacked every day, according to Sophos figures reported by Hostinger, and most of those attacks come from bots that scan every address they can reach.
The video above covers what attackers look for on a WordPress site and what a hacked site costs its owner, from lost sales to search rankings.
To see where your own site stands, open WP Ghost > Security Check and press Start Scan.
