Securing your WordPress site
I’ve broken my habit of posting once a week a bit; you can thank the weather for that, it sometimes feels my brains are melting 😉
Second reason is that although I value this blog; my main blog / hobby site is hosted elsewhere. And this week I finally managed to finish up on all the desperately required maintenance. Even managed to expand that site a little as well!
Anyway; In my last post I mentioned some of the plugins which I really favour. This week I want to share some (more advanced) hosting tips which I applied on my other blog. These can both enhance and secure your blog. Remember: I’m commenting on environments where you host your WordPress setup yourself, so this does not apply if you have a free blog with WordPress dot com.

Sharing some WordPress experiences…
3 years ago I dove into what is my current all-time favorite hobby and passion: synthesizers and basically everything involved around it. From sound design to synthesis studies, right to simply playing a few tunes yourself. It didn’t take long for me to decide and build a website and an accompanied blog to share my experiences and some of my material (be it sounds or presets and such). This resulted in my hobby site SynthFan.info.
Beginning this year however I decided that I no longer wanted the site to be hosted with a big hosting provider. It would save me some money and I could more easily expand on the site as well. Because I didn’t feel like building the whole thing from scratch, and because I already knew that I wanted to continue blogging I decided to pick up on WordPress. So now I’d like to share some of my experiences so far. Something tells me that I won’t have to explain what WordPress is all about considering the location of this blog, so I’ll skip that one 😀
