By now, everyone knows that the Wordpress blog platform has quickly grown into a universally accepted and speedy way to transfer subject matter to the Web. Search engines like Google or Bing seem to truly be partial to Wordpress blogs and numerous users have discovered that installing Wordpress can help them attain online search engine "natural" traffic more rapidly than a conventional site. Why Use A Wordpress Install Service? In order to use Wordpress, you have to install it on a web site. If you are installing Wordpress manually for the first time, you may run into several problems. Some of the more common issues are:
issues, wrong file permissions with your web host or other various inconsistencies. Wordpress is a fluid application and is constantly being updated. While you can update after a Fantastico installation via your web host cpanel, we believe a manual install is always a better choice. As well, if you are installing manually for the first time, you may run into issues or problems such as the ones mentioned, that could slow you down significantly, even have you wanting to pull your hair out after the second, third or fourth attempt! And speaking about web hosts or hosting options... Many of them offer an automated way for you to install Wordpress via a script called Fantastico. But there can be problems with this approach. An automated install, while seemingly simple, contains known coding and footprints that leave your blog vulnerable to hackers and spammer's links and/or posts. Surely you've heard the stories of blogs being hacked, even destroyed to the point everything is lost. Vulnerability to these attacks is very high with automatic installations. While these installs are most commonly referred to as a fast and simple way to get a Wordpress blog installed, the cost of lost data could be significant in the long run. All Wordpress Installation services are not created equal, and using one you feel comfortable with and know is installing you the "right way" the first time, takes all the hassle and worry out of setting up your blog correctly and with security in mind. Security IS A BIG Issue! As discussed, the last thing you need is to find your web site hacked, defaced or destroyed. Even worse, no backup was made beforehand in order to restore it. Wordpress is known for its simple and uncomplicated installation. This fact has contributed in particular to the popularity of the software, but it also ensures that many of the configuration and settings are exactly the same on thousands of sites. This allows people lacking moral integrity who know what they are looking for to easily find and gain unauthorized access to your blog. Our custom manual installation allows the setup process to be more unique. But we take things even further by tweaking the settings to eliminate several security issues. This greatly reduces the risk posed by hackers and rogue programmers from injecting code into your blog that enables a backdoor entry, allowing them to steal information, enter their own, or completely disable your blog. What About Wordpress Themes? Wordpress themes are a group of files that work together to give a visually appealing layout of the information created through Wordpress. These themes usually have sidebars, footers, headers and specially coded content areas. Due to the fact that Wordpress is open source software, available to the masses... there are literally thousands of companies and people worldwide that create themes for it. A theme changes how your blog looks and feels and many themes add additional features as well. You can usually change the look of your site by changing items such as the images. This allows you to create just about any type of blog, web page or site that you can think of. There are thousands of themes available in all price ranges and many that are completely free of charge, while others can cost up to few hundred dollars. You have to be careful when selecting a free theme because some may contain malicious code or various links embedded in encoded sections of PHP code. Some could be very detrimental to your blog. Many authors of these free themes sell links to web site owners, embed them in the footer script, and then encode the script so that they cannot be removed. Some themes even have embedded code that allows the authors to remotely change the links found in the footer, or worse in some cases. The issue at hand is not only the fact that malicious code may be hidden in the encoded PHP, but any time a web site contains numerous links to unrelated sites, Google may interpret that as "purchased" links, a practice that search engines have been on a vendetta about for the past few years. In other words, even if the theme is legitimate, but contains links to casinos, ring tone sites or any type of site that is unrelated to the theme or content for your blog, you put your blog at risk for receiving a penalty from Google. This can greatly reduce the ability for your blog to rank, or rank well. Without ranking, natural traffic (that found in the search engines) is greatly diminished, even non-existant. What is acceptable and legitimate is for the theme author to include links back to t heir own web site where the theme was developed. It is quite common to find links to Wordpress theme sites or a designer’s web site, so you do not need to be concerned about those types of links. What Are Wordpress Plugins For? A Wordpress plugin is a piece of software that is written to give your blog more functionality. There are literally thousands upon thousands of plugins available. You can usually find a Wordpress plugin for almost anything you want your blog to do. The problem that arises with plugins is that the more of them you have, the slower your blog will become. So you shouldn't have a plugin installed or activated just for the sake of having it there. For example, if you are not going to use a twitter account with your blog (or maybe don’t even have one) then there is no point in installing a Twitter plugin. Now, in the world of Wordpress plugins, some are free, some you have to pay for. But the big question is this, "which ones will truly help your blog and not hamper it?" You should always keep in mind the following when using a plugin: will it increase your efficiency of your blog by doing something that is required over and over; or "is it user friendly, not only to your visitors, but also to the search engines?" Or both! Up-To-Date Themes And PluginsOut of date themes and plug-ins can cause issues with your blog. For instance,a popular image re-sizing plug-in, "TimThumb" was recently the target of a security breach that could potentially lead to a blog being hacked. It is important to know what themes you are using, where they came from and are they up to date. This also applies to plugins. There are literally thousands of plugins and more coming on the market everyday. A good many never work, or have never been tested with various themes. While we can't cover all the plugins here, we include popular tested plugins with both the basic and premium installations as described below. Standard Installation Package Standard Installation is known as "the basics" you need to get Wordpress up and running. We will have tested and installed three (3) themes. You can make your choice in the beginning and even change later if you decide you want a new look. Many of the universally used basic plugins will be installed to allow you to choose the ones that best suit your needs. Additionally, we will include and/or do the following:
Premium Installation Package The premium package comes with everything that is in the standard package as stated above, PLUS a custom program written in-house that we call Sitescan Inspector. One of the things hackers are known to do is insert invisible iframe code on your site. Your site is intact and everything looks fine but... when anyone visits your site, the iframe loads a script from another site. Example: A script that issues false security alerts and fake scan results to try and trick the visitor into thinking that their computer is infected so they will then purchase it. Sitescan Inspector monitors the files on your server 24/7 and if any of them have been changed, it will warn you by sending an email that contains a list of the files that have been modified. Sitescan Inspector is NOT a plugin and is installed in such a way that it is difficult for hackers to disable it. You are notified by email when anything on your site is modified, so if you've NOT been to your site, you will know to check it for inconsistencies, or have your hosting company look for malicious or suspicious activity. Additionally, we will include and/or do the following:
