Protect Your WordPress Blog from Brute Attacks Using Simple Plug-In

There’s been a flood of attacks on WordPress sites recently (what else is new, huh?!) that you do not want to be a victim of.  Fortunately, there are a couple simple actions you can take immediately to greatly reduce your odds of being hit.

One is to install a Free WordPress Plug-In called Limit Login Attempts.   It takes less than 5 minutes to install and activate this plug-in to increase the protection on your site.
