Best WordPress Plugins to improve the Security of your Blog

blog securitySecurity is always top priority.

Why?

Because hackers are now everywhere and it pays to be cautious as well as protected and prepared.

I am reading in forums about so many people where their sites are being hacked, so don’t wait till your site is hacked but start protecting your site right now.

Here are some of the best WordPress Security Plugins and tips that can help you in securing your own personal space, which is your site. You would not want anyone destroying it, right?

1. Secure WordPress.

Our First Live Blogging Teleconference

teleconfLast night Joel and I facilitated our first live teleconference as part of the support for the Income Blogging Guide delegates.

We used https://www.hidefconferencing.com/ for the teleconference service.

With this service, as moderator, you can mute all other callers. They can request to speak through a “hand-raising” feature, and you can mute and un-mute individuals online. It’s real simple.

Last week we tested it and all worked fine.

We sent out the invite email to all the membership sign-ups.

Yesterday, we tested it again. Being our first one, we wanted everything to go well.

What would you do if you were laid off?

Only yesterday I mentioned the importance of having a plan ‘b’ in case of being made redundant.

I’ve received some great comments, so thank you.

Watch this video (only 2 minutes) and see if it changes your thoughts!

Video Transcript:

Person 1: I got to work in the morning, uh, 10 o’clock phone call, uh, and an email.

Person 2: There was no sign that anything was coming, I was as busy as I would have been on and in the other day.

“Nice Post”

commenting on blogsOver the New Year I’ve been so busy with the Income Blogging Guide Membership Course launch I’ve not written any ‘reflecting’ or ‘looking forward’ type blog posts.

You know the sort of ones where you talk about your mistakes and success in 2009 and what you hope to achieve in 2010.

I will get around to writing such blog posts because 2009 was a life changing year for me and I am hoping for a great 2010.

But today I want to discuss ‘comments’.

Income Blogging Guide – Your Questions Answered

Since we launched the Income Blogging Guide Course, Joel and I have received quite a few questions. So I’ve created a video answering them. We’ve had a lot of snow in the UK this week – so check out the snowman!

Seriously, I answer all the common questions and if you have any more, just let me know. Simply click on the button in the middle of the video screen to start. It takes a few seconds to load.

Here’s the link for all the details on the Income Blogging Guide Course.

Sometimes You Have To Blow Your Own Trumpet

blow your own trumpetFirstly what is the meaning of ‘blow your own trumpet’?

Answer: To act in a boastful, self-promoting manner.

Don’t you think “blowing your own trumpet” and boasting about yourself, is a bit tricky?

Do you find it hard to do?

If you do, you are not alone.

The vast majority of us do.

But one of the most crucial skills in today’s world is to be able to sell yourself. If you are trying to sell a service or to get new business you will need to sell yourself.

What is the most common 4-letter word used by Bloggers?

swear wordWant to know what the most common 4-letter word that individuals say when they buy some sort of ‘making money on-line’ product?

No, it’s not a swear word.

It begins with ‘H’.

“HELP!” is what they say.

They buy the product, realize it’s just a load of theory and the seller is no where to be seen.

And guess what most customers then do?

Buy another product and so the vicious circle starts again.

Now is your chance to break out of the vicious circle because our Income Blogging Guide Course is now live.

Income Blogging Guide Course – Survey Results Are In

income blogging guide surveyBack in December Joel and I asked for some help in preparation for our Income Blogging Guide Course.

The course is focussed on helping individuals and small businesses make a full time income via blogging while working part-time and get some freedom back into their lives.

This is exactly the position both Joel and I are in now, and the course is a total brain dump of our years of making a living on-line.

HOWEVER, we needed some help. We wanted to be sure we had covered everything that individuals expected from such a course.

How To Build a List That Actually Opens Your Emails

open emailsIf you’ve been marketing for long and hard enough, you are probably aware of the fact that money is in the list.

But what I learned from a devastating experience is that money is in a responsive list. A list that actually opens and reads your emails. A list that responds to your calls to action.

Real money is made of a list that is receptive of your marketing. If you mail 2000 people and only 100 of them respond, that’s only 5%. 95% of your potential revenue is wasted.
