Yup, it’s turned into Wordpress month on Search Engine Snark, which is like Shark Week only significantly lamer but still likely to draw more eyeballs.
For those who are too poor to hire a pro Wordpress designer (i.e. if your name isn’t Graywolf or you weren’t given a copy of Thesis for free) to re-tool an [...]

I’ll confess that I’ve had to deal with this a few times in the last few months. Anyone who runs a Wordpress blog would do well to stop by here and pick up the MonitorHackdFiles tool and review the security-based plugins and resources that are outlined there.

Getting started in Wordpress
January 15th, 2009 No Comments
