Overview of this book

Most likely – today – some hacker tried to crack your WordPress site, its data and content – maybe once but, with automated tools, very likely dozens or hundreds of times. There's no silver bullet but if you want to cut the odds of a successful attack from practically inevitable to practically zero, read this book. WordPress 3 Ultimate Security shows you how to hack your site before someone else does. You'll uncover its weaknesses before sealing them off, securing your content and your day-to-day local-to-remote editorial process. This is more than some "10 Tips ..." guide. It's ultimate protection – because that's what you need. Survey your network, using the insight from this book to scan for and seal the holes before galvanizing the network with a rack of cool tools. Solid! The WordPress platform is only as safe as the weakest network link, administrator discipline, and your security knowledge. We'll cover the bases, underpinning your working process from any location, containing content, locking down the platform, your web files, the database, and the server. With that done, your ongoing security is infinitely more manageable. Covering deep-set security yet enjoyable to read, WordPress 3 Ultimate Security will multiply your understanding and fortify your site.

The content came first, just as it's the content that offers value to our visitors. The site itself is secondary. So let's talk content.

In most cases, we crank out content that we want people to see on our sites to help build some kind of community for whatever reason . We're happy to share a tease in lieu of a link to the remaining material on our sites. It doesn't always pan out like this though. Scrapers come along, copy our content, and use it for a cynical business benefit. Damn!

This chapter sets out how best to share content while deterring or pursuing reprobates:

  • Abused, fair use and user-friendly considers content recycling scenarios
