Did you know that thousands of websites are hacked every day due to a lack of adequate protection?
If your WordPress site doesn’t have basic security measures in place, it could be
at serious risk — and the damage could be greater than you think.
What are the risks of an unsecured WordPress site?
- Data theft: Customer information, payment details and even passwords can
be accessed by hackers if the website is not protected. - Loss of reputation: A hacked website conveys insecurity. Your visitors may
never return — and may even spread the word. - Drop in Google: Compromised sites are penalized by search engines, which
directly affects their organic traffic. - Campaign blocking: Paid ads on platforms like Google Ads or Meta
may be suspended if your site is deemed unsafe. - Cost of recovery: Rolling back a breach can be more expensive than investing
in security from the start.
The main mistakes made by those who ignore security:
- Do not update plugins and themes
- Using weak or repeated passwords
- Not making regular backups
- Installing plugins from questionable sources
- Do not use SSL certificates
How to secure your WordPress website:
- Keep everything up to date: WordPress, plugins and themes.
- Use strong passwords and two-step authentication.
- Install a web application firewall (WAF).
- Have a reliable security plugin like Wordfence or Sucuri.
- Make automatic and regular backups.
- Count on a specialized team to monitor and act in case of threats.
💡 Investing in security is cheaper than dealing with the damages of an attack.
