Hi Friends,

One of my site which is running with wordpress is getting hacked very frequently (say once in a month). Can you say me what are the things to be checked after the hack and prevent my site from future hacks. I don’t know …is my wordpress security is weak or the hacker is that much efficient. Can you please help me on this..!

Hello clark,

Thanks for the reply, will check these link now. FYI When i gone through the logs i can find that, the person has tried admin as login name and tried to enter the site first. That was not working for sometime because usually we don’t use admin name right. Don’t know what he did, finally he has entered with admin ..! how is it possible.???? can you help me on this..!?

I’m volunteering in this forum, but there are people that offer hack recovery services, such as http://wphelpcenter.com or individuals on http://jobs.wordpress.net
