What Methods I follow?
Method #1: Strong User Name and Password:
I always use strong User Name and Password which contain combination of ‘Characters’, Numerical Values’ and ‘Special’ Characters. However in ‘User Name’ we can’t use ‘special characters’. I strongly recommend using strong User name and Password just to make sure that it can’t be guessed by anyone. Even I don’t remember my User Name and Password and use my diary to log in every time where I have written all details.
Method #2: I Hide Wp-Admin URL Using Lockdown WP Admin Plugin:
Another method I use to protect my WordPress blog is to use Lockdown WP master vpn ios plugin to hide my wp-admin url. As we have a by default log in url to get access to our admin area in WordPress and hiding it will be a great way to enhance security measures to WordPress Blog.
