Better WordPress Security

I've used Better WordPress Security a lot and do like the comprehensive way
in which it tackles a broad range of prospective threats. Its evolution has
been significant and rapid. Unfortunately, the new releases have been
occurring at almost weekly intervals for the past couple of months. Upgrades
sometimes culminate in a crisis on the site, such as 500 Server Errors. This
issue is particularly problematic if you have WordPress running in a
sub-directory! Such issues can only remedied by:

* accessing the site via FTP
* deactivating the BWS plugin by renaming or deleting the directory
* editing the BWS code from the .htaccess file (or deleting .htaccess
completely)

Obviously, that's a pain in the proverbial, and is not an endearing aspect
of the plugin! :-)

If your WordPress installation runs from the root directory, BWS will give
you peace of mind, but you will need a good understanding of WordPress,
security issues, and confidence in WordPress troubleshooting...

Off-Page Search Engine Optimization

Publishers cannot directly control off-page ranking factors. These factors include inbound links, social channel activity and online customer reviews. Inbound Links: When other sites link to yours, your website shows up higher in search results. You can measure how many inbound links you currently have at www.opensiteexplorer.org . Once you collect this data, consider taking these actions: . Scan your highest-authority inbound links for opportunities to create more similar links. . Scan your competitors' highest-authority inbound links. Can you get those links too, or do they provide ideas for getting similar links? . Inbound links from non-profit (.org) and education (.edu) sites are especially valuable. Do you have any? Should you have more from your friends and partners in these realms? Build your inbound links gradually. Google algorithms will notice a quick accumulation of links and may penalize you. Get your staff on board with the idea of...

On-Page Search Engine Optimization

On-page search ranking factors are those that are entirely within the website publisher's control. In other words, it's the content you place on your webpages. Content: You must keep your content fresh with regular updates on all pages. When other sites link to yours, your website shows up higher in search results. You can measure how many inbound links you currently have at www.opensiteexplorer.org . "Evergreen content" was a trendy term in the SEO world for a while, which meant certain content can be relevant and timely year after year, so you can utilize it over and over. For example, every winter you likely post information about your winter tire specials and vehicle winterization services, so why not just flip the same information up there and be done with it? This is a lazy approach to marketing. Put some thought and effort into all of the information that goes onto your website and you will see the results, such as longer page ...
