Secret Key for Wordpress Blogs

I’ve been hearing that some blogs are getting “hacked.” I’m still in the process os understanding how a blog can be hacked (there are numerous ways). I think it is a heinous thing to do, but the perpetrators always get away with it. As I dig deeper into the Wordpress forums (about as exciting as perusing a life insurance quote), I’ll be sure to let you know what I discover.

I did find this handy little tip: set up a Secret Key for your Wordpress blog. If you are computer-challeneged, this might be something you’d want to skip or get help with. You DO NOT want to go tinkering around with your php files if you don’t know what you’re doing!! But for those of you who are experienced, this may prove a worthy exercise.

Like I said, I’ll be posting more about all these things in days to come. Until then– blog safely and BACK UP YOUR BLOG on a regular basis!
