Can your blog get Hacked?

All was quiet. I spent a day on the phone, sorting, planning, finding some nice honest websites to do business with. It was an unusual day, as I had not had a chance to check my favorite forum boards and see what the latest news was.

Not even one minute into trying to catch up I see “News Flash!!! Yust Yucky Was Hacked!!!” I just about lost it, as I’ve been neglective myself and did not have the proper back ups to my blog. On top of that, Yucky is WordPress too!

Freaking out, I flipped here to affiliate scams.

The relief. All the time put in so far to starting this blog. I know, it’s not like Gone With The Wind or anything, but hey! It’s mine!

And maybe it will help someone. That is the whole point of leaving it displayed to the world.

Relief set in when I saw all was in tact. But then came the question. Could my blog get hacked?

The answer sadly is YES.

Taragana has a little something on the possibilities of a WordPress hacking. There are many more on the subject as well.

I don’t really know if Yucky was hacked. But the important thing to run with here is be sure to back up your blog.
