WordPress gives you the freedom to set your links the way you want them to look like. In the administrative area of WordPress go to Settings -> Permalinks. On this page you can choose from several predefined options or use a custom structure for your links.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">

<figure class="media" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(211, 211, 211); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0784314) 0px 3px 3px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 9px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><br /></figure><div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
You can choose the Custom Structure option and enter /%postname%/ for example. This will make your links look like http://yourdomain.com/the-name-of-your-post/. Or you can enter /%category%/%postname%/ if you want to include the name of your category in the URL. You can also add custom text or other WordPress variables. The full list of available variables that you can use in your permalinks can be found at the <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks" rel="nofollow" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4290c5; text-decoration: none; transition: background 0.15s linear, color 0.15s linear, border 0.15s linear;" target="_blank">WordPress official website</a>.</div>

You should enter the meta description for each one of your pages. Use simple but informative sentences. The search engines will check how relevant your description is to the actual content of your page so  make sure that you describe only the current page and avoid adding irrelevant information in this description.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
It is a good practice to categorize your posts in articles. Once you go to the Posts -> Categories page in your admin area, note the description field available for each category. WordPress will take what you enter in this field and insert it as meta description for the category.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">

It is essential to have the "title" and "alt" tags specified for each one of the images you use in your posts. The search engines will then know what this image is supposed to represent. Typing the title and alt tags for each image you use, however, can be a time-consuming task. Instead, you can use the handy <a href="http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/wordpress-plugins/seo-friendly-images" rel="nofollow" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4290c5; text-decoration: none; transition: background 0.15s linear, color 0.15s linear, border 0.15s linear;" target="_blank">SEO Friendly Images</a> plugin. For more information on how to install this plugin, you can check our tutorial on How to install WordPress plugins.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Once you install the plugin, go to Settings -> SEO Friendly Images in your WordPress admin area. On this page you can specify the ALT and TITLE tags for your images. The plugin gives you the option to use internal variables such as %title, %name and %category. With them you can set the ALT and TITLE tags of your images to the title of your post for example. The plugin does the rest. This saves you a lot of time  and keeps your images SEO-friendly .</div>

You should make sure that you use the <h1> tag only for the titles of your posts.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
You should use a few <h2> tags and as many <h3> tags as you need for the other headings in your posts. Doing this will allow the search engines to index the important information from your website better. A good document has headings and subheadings, because headings make it easier to determine the subject of the page.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
For blog websites the best SEO practice is to set the title of your post in a heading1 tag. Most of the good WordPress templates do that. If not, you should modify the theme in order to achieve a correct output of your pages.</div>

This tutorial will show you how to create a simple WordPress theme. When building your own theme, you can use our Free WordPress themes for reference.</div>
<h2 class="heading h2" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
How to create a basic WordPress theme?</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
To start building your theme, first create a sub-folder in the wp-content/themes directory in your WordPress folder. For the purpose of this tutorial, we will call the folder "tutorial_theme". The name of the folder should correspond to the name of the theme you want to create. To do this you can use either your favorite FTP client or the File Manager tool in your cPanel.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Before you start creating the theme, you should decide how the layout of your website will look like. In this tutorial we will build a WordPress theme that consist of a header, sidebar, content area and a footer ,as shown below:</div>
<figure class="media" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(211, 211, 211); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0784314) 0px 3px 3px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 9px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://www.siteground.com/img/knox/tutorials/uploaded_images/images/wordpress/wrdp-theme1(1).jpg" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 346.065px; margin: 0px auto; max-height: 100%; max-width: 100%; width: 645.994px;" /></figure><div class="bold" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700 !important; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
To do this we will have to create the following files into the tutorial_theme directory:</div>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; list-style: none; margin: 20px 20px 30px 0px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">header.php - This file will contain the code for the header section of the theme;</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">index.php - This is the main file for the theme. It will contain the code for the Main Area and will specify where the other files will be included;</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">sidebar.php - This file will contain the information about the sidebar;</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">footer.php - This file will handle your footer;</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">style.css - This file will handle the styling of your new theme;</li>
</ul>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
You can either create those files locally with a simple text editor(like notepad for example) and upload them via FTP or you can use the File Manager tool in your cPanel to create the files directly on your hosting account.</div>
<div class="bold" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700 !important; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Now let's take a closer look at each file and what it should contain:</div>
<h2 class="mt20 heading h2" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
The header.php file</h2>
<div class="bold" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700 !important; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
In this file you should add the following code:</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><html>
<head>
<title>Tutorial theme</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>">
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
<h1>HEADER</h1>
</div></pre>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
Basically, this is simple HTML code with a single line containing a php code and a standard WordPress function. In this file you can specify your meta tags such as the title of your website, meta description and the keywords for your page.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Right after the title the line we add</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>"></pre>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
tells WordPress to load the style.css file. It will handle the styling of your website.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?></pre>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
part of the line is a WordPress function that actually loads the stylesheet file.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Next, we have added the beginning of a "div" with class wrapper which will be the main container of the website. We have set class for it so we can modify it via the style.css file.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
After that we have added a simple label HEADER wrapped in a "div" with class "header" which will be later specified in the stylesheet file.</div>
<h2 class="mt20 heading h2" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
The index.php file</h2>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="main">
<div id="content">
<h1>Main Area</h1>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<h4>Posted on <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?></h4>
<p><?php the_content(__('(more...)')); ?></p>
<hr> <?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p><?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>
<div id="delimiter">
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?></pre>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
The code in this file begins with</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><?php get_header(); ?></pre>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
which will include the header.php file and the code in it in the main page. It uses an internal WordPress function to do this. We will explain this in details later in this tutorial. Then we have placed a Main Area text to indicate which section of your theme is displayed in this area.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The next few lines consist of a PHP code and standard WordPress functions. This code checks whether you have posts in your blog created through the WordPress administrative area and displays them.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Next, we include the sidebar.php file with this line</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><?php get_sidebar(); ?></pre>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
In this file you can display your post categories, archives etc.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
After this line, we insert an empty "div" that will separate the Main Area and the Sidebar from the footer.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Finally, we add one last line</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><?php get_footer(); ?></pre>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
which will include the footer.php file in your page.</div>
<h2 class="mt20 heading h2" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
The sidebar.php file</h2>
<div class="bold" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700 !important; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
In the sidebar.php we will add the following code:</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><div id="sidebar">
<h2 ><?php _e('Categories'); ?></h2>
<ul >
<?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=1&hierarchical=0'); ?>
</ul>
<h2 ><?php _e('Archives'); ?></h2>
<ul >
<?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
</ul>
</div></pre>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
In this file we use internal WordPress functions to display the Categories and Archives of posts. The WordPress function returns them as list items, therefore we have wrapped the actual functions in unsorted lists (the <ul> tags).</div>
<h2 class="mt20 heading h2" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
The footer.php file</h2>
<div class="bold" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700 !important; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
You should add these lines to the footer.php file:</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<div id="footer"><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><h1>FOOTER</h1><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /></div><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /></div><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /></body><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /></html></div>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
With this code we add a simple FOOTER lable. Instead of this code you can add links, additional text, the copyright information for your theme and additional objects.</div>
<h2 class="mt20 heading h2" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
The style.css file</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Add the following lines to the style.css file:</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;">body { text-align: center; }
#wrapper { display: block; border: 1px #a2a2a2 solid; width:90%; margin:0px auto; }
#header { border: 2px #a2a2a2 solid; }
#content { width: 75%; border: 2px #a2a2a2 solid; float: left; }
#sidebar { width: 23%; border: 2px #a2a2a2 solid; float: right; }
#delimiter { clear: both; }
#footer { border: 2px #a2a2a2 solid; }
.title { font-size: 11pt; font-family: verdana; font-weight: bold; }</pre>
<div class="mt10" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px !important;">
This simple css file sets the basic looks of your theme. Those lines set the background of your page and surround the main parts of your site with borders for convenience.</div>
<div class="bold" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700 !important; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
At this point your website should look like this:</div>
<figure class="media" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(211, 211, 211); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0784314) 0px 3px 3px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 9px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://www.siteground.com/img/knox/tutorials/uploaded_images/images/wordpress/wrdp-theme2.jpg" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 346.065px; margin: 0px auto; max-height: 100%; max-width: 100%; width: 645.994px;" /></figure><div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
As we have previously mentioned, internal WordPress functions are often used in the code of the theme. You can take a look at the complete <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference" rel="nofollow" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4290c5; text-decoration: none; transition: background 0.15s linear, color 0.15s linear, border 0.15s linear;" target="_blank">Function Reference</a> at the official website of WordPress for more information about each function.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
From now on you can modify the CSS file, add images, animations and other content to your theme in order to achieve the looks you want for your blog!</div>

If you have an existing WordPress site and you want to change your username(to something different than "admin" for security reasons, for example), you can do this quite easily.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">

Next, locate your WordPress database from the list on the left.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

If you're not sure which one it is, you can check the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">wp-config.php</strong> file in the root folder of your WordPress installation and in particular the line below:</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;">define('DB_NAME', 'user_wp448');</pre>

Once you select your WordPress database, you will see a lit of its tables. Choose the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">_users </strong>table from the left menu.</div>

You will see a list of all the registered users in your site. Locate the admin username and click on the<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Edit</strong> button on that line.</div>

It is important to mention that these measures don't guarantee a 100% protection against hacking attempts, mostly because a 100% secure website doesn't exist, but they will protect you against the majority of attacks.</div>

Protect your WordPress Admin Area</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
It is important to restrict the access to your WordPress admin area only to people that actually need access to it. If your site does not support registration or front-end content creation, your visitors should not be able to access your <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">/wp-admin/</strong> folder or the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">wp-login.php</strong> file. The best you can do is to get our home IP address (you can use a site like <a href="http://www.whatismyip.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4290c5; text-decoration: none; transition: background 0.15s linear, color 0.15s linear, border 0.15s linear;" target="_blank">whatismyip.com</a> for that) and add these lines to the<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">.htaccess</em> file in your WordPress admin folder replacing <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">xx.xxx.xxx.xxx</em> with your IP address.</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;"><Files wp-login.php>

Allow from xx.xxx.xxx.xxx
</Files></pre>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
In case you want to allow access to multiple computers (like your office, home PC, laptop, etc.), simply add another <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Allow from xx.xxx.xxx.xxx</em> statement on a new line.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
If you want to be able to access your admin area from any IP address (for example, if you often rely on free Wi-Fi networks) restricting your admin area to a single IP address or to few IPs can be inconvenient. In such cases we recommend that you limit the number of incorrect login attempt to your site. This way you will protect your WordPress site from brute-force attacks and people trying to guess your password. For such purposes, you can use a nice little plugin called Limit login attempts.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Don't use the "admin" username</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Most of the attackers will assume that your admin username is "admin". You can easily block a lot of brute-force and other attacks simply by naming your admin username differently. If you're installing a new WordPress site, you will be asked for username during the WordPress installation process. If you already have a WordPress site, you can follow the instructions in our tutorial on how to change your WordPress username.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Use strong passwords</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
You will be surprised to know that there are thousands of people that use phrases like "password" or "123456" for their admin login details. Needles to say, such passwords can be easily guessed and they are on the top of the list of any dictionary attack. A good tip is to use an entire sentence that makes sense to you and you can remember easily. Such passwords are much, much better than single phrase ones.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Consider two-factor authentication</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Enabling two-factor authentication for your WordPress website will significantly improve the security of your website. One of the easiest ways to do this is to use Clef to authenticate using your mobile phone. For all SiteGround users, Clef authors have created an ad-free version of their plugin. Check out our Clef tutorial for more information on that matter.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Make sure you're site is on a secured WordPress hosting</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Your WordPress site is as secured as your hosting account. If someone can exploit a vulnerability in an old PHP version for example or other service on your hosting platform it won't matter that you have the latest WordPress version. This is why it is important to be hosted with a company that has security as a priority. Some of the features that you should look for are:</div>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; list-style: none; margin: 20px 20px 30px 0px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">Support for the latest PHP and MySQL versions</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">Account isolation</li>

<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">Intrusion detecting system</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">

If your computer is infected with virus or a malware software, a potential attacker can gain access yo your login details and make a valid login to your site bypassing all the measures you've taken before. This is why it is very important do have an up-to-date antivirus program and keep the overall security of all computers you use to access your WordPress site on a high level.</div>

In this tutorial we will give you some tips on how to improve the speed of your WordPress website. Having a fast site is essential if you want to provide your visitors with great user experience and rank well in the search engines like Google and Bing which take the loading speed of your pages into consideration.</div>

<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Enable Dynamic Caching</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Adding properly configured Dynamic caching to your WordPress site will have great effect on its speed. There are many services like Varnish and APC that can be used but all of them require a lot of server configuration and tweaking of your application to work correctly. This is why, we at SiteGround have created a tool called the SuperCacher. With it, all you need to do is install a small plugin and enable the Dynamic caching with a single click. For more information on how to use it, please check out our SuperCacher Tutorial.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Enable gZIP compression</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
To decrease the size of data that's being transferred between your server and your visitors, you can enable the gZIP compression for your images, CSS and JavaScript files. By doing this, the web server will compress (like creating a ZIP file for example) this content before it's transferred over the Internet to your browser. On the other side, your browser decompresses the content before rendering it. This significantly lowers the size of information that's being transferred lowering the loading times of your pages.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The easiest way to enable the gZIP compression for your images, CSS and JS files is to add these lines to your .htaccess file in the root WordPress folder:</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;">## ENABLE GZIP COMPRESSION ##
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xml

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript
## ENABLE GZIP COMPRESSION ##</pre>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Use a CDN</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Content delivery networks (CDN) are server networks that clone your site on all of their location nodes. This means that when your visitors request your site, it will be served by the closest server location, rather than the main datacenter of your hosting provider. For more information on that matter, check out our CloudFlare CDN Tutorial.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Optimize your Images</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Images are essential part of every website. It is important to have them optimized. There are few things regarding our images that you should mind when making your WordPress site:</div>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; list-style: none; margin: 20px 20px 30px 0px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">Use images with the proper size. Do not upload big images and then scale them with HTML. Make sure that your photos and other images are not bigger than the size you're actually displaying them in.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">Smush your images. Smushing them will remove all the additional data from your photos - creation date, camera used for the photo, gps coordinates, etc. There is a nice little plugin that does that for you called <a href="http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-smushit/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4290c5; text-decoration: none; transition: background 0.15s linear, color 0.15s linear, border 0.15s linear;" target="_blank">WP Smush.it</a>.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;">If possible, use Sprites for your themes. Using sprites is a CSS technique that uses a single image to show multiple design elements on your pages. This way instead of loading dozens of small images (making http requests each time), your site will open a single one. Sprites, however, must be considered when the theme is designed. So always look for themes that utilise sprites.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Minify your JavaScript and CSS files</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Minifying your CSS and JavaScript files means that all the unnecessary data from them like double spaces, empty new lines, comments, etc. will be removed from the files lowering their size. There are many <a href="http://cssminifier.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4290c5; text-decoration: none; transition: background 0.15s linear, color 0.15s linear, border 0.15s linear;" target="_blank">online tools</a> that you can use for free to minify your files. In addition, if you're using the W3 Total Cache plugin, it has an option to automatically minify your theme's CSS and JS files.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Leverage browser caching</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Leveraging the browser caching means that you can specify for how long your visitors' browsers should cache your images, CSS, JS and flash files. However, if any of those resources is set, your server will notify the visitors browser and the cached content will be replaced with the new one. You can add the lines below to your .htaccess file in order to enable this technique.</div>
<pre style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: hidden; padding: 14px; white-space: normal; width: 665.795px; word-break: break-all;">## LEVERAGE BROWSER CACHING ##

Having backups of your site is essential. Every webmaster should have few backups of his/hers website in case something goes wrong. In this tutorial we will cover the easiest and most useful ways to backup your WordPress website.</div>

Backup WordPress Manually</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
WordPress is a web application based on PHP and MySQL. As such you need to backup all its files and its database to have a full copy of your site. The easiest way to copy your files is via FTP. To do this follow the instructions in our tutorial on how to use FTP. Make sure that you save all the files and folders in the directory WordPress is installed in (public_html if it's the main application for your site).</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The WordPress database can be backed up as any other database. Simply follow the instructions in our tutorial on how to backup MySQL databases. In case you have multiple MySQL databases and you wonder which one your site is using, open the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">wp-config.php</strong> file in the WordPress root folder and you'll see the database name saved next to the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">DB_NAME</strong> option.</div>
<h3 class="heading h3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 25px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 5px;">
Use Softaculous to Backup WordPress</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Although the main purpose of Softaculous is to install new applications with a single click, it can be used to create a full backup of your WordPress site.</div>
<br />
<figure class="media" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(211, 211, 211); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0784314) 0px 3px 3px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 9px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://www.siteground.com/img/knox/tutorials/uploaded_images/images/wordpress/bw1.jpg" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 226.094px; margin: 0px auto; max-height: 100%; max-width: 100%; width: 645.994px;" /></figure><br />

Now, you will see a list of the WordPress applications installed in your account via Softaculous. In case you don't see your site listed here, probably it was not installed via Softaculous. This means that you will have to add it to the system by using the Import page on the same screen. To begin the backup process, click on the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">yellow folder icon</strong> next to the site.</div>
<br />
<figure class="media" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(211, 211, 211); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0784314) 0px 3px 3px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 9px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://www.siteground.com/img/knox/tutorials/uploaded_images/images/wordpress/bw2.jpg" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 305.881px; margin: 0px auto; max-height: 100%; max-width: 100%; width: 645.994px;" /></figure><br />

On this page, you can select whether to backup only the WordPress files, only its database or both. In addition, you will receive some useful info about the folder and database that will be backed up. If you wish, you can add a note to this backup. Then, simply click on the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Backup Installation</strong> button at the bottom of the page.</div>
<br />

In few moments, your backup will be ready (time can vary depending on your site size) and you will receive a confirmation message for a successful backup creation. Follow the link to the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Backups</strong> page to proceed.</div>

If comments are enabled(which they are by default) your visitors can share their thoughts on your content under your post. These are called comments. Comments are great for your website because they show you which of your content is becoming popular and what is your visitors opinion on what you write.</div>

The way your comments are shown on your site depend on your WordPress comments settings and on the theme you're currently using.</div>

When people cite or use your entire blog post linking to you, WordPress automatically sends a pingback to the content author. This way you can keep track on who is linking to you. In addition that's a way of acknowledging someone's authorship on certain content. You will see your pingbacks in the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Comments</strong> section of your WordPress admin area. They will be listed amongst the regular comments. You can distinguish pingbacks from regular comments because the anchor text of the link to your site is automatically placed in square brackets by WordPress.</div>

On this page, there are several important settings that you should change depending on your needs:</div>

Note that enabling or disabling comments under a particular post or page will overwrite this setting.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 2px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px; position: relative; text-align: left;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">An administrator must always approve the comment</strong> - if you want to moderate each comment that enters your site before it goes live, enable this option.

Protect Comments from Spam with Akismet</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #666666; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Setting up Akismet for your WordPress site is one of the first things you should do. Spam is a global problem and often WordPress comments are the place when bots try to enter bogus content full of links to their sites. Akismet is an external service for battling spam. It has a database of known emails, IP addresses and username used for sending spam. When a visitor of your website submits a comment, it's being checked by Akismet and put in a special <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Spam</strong> folder if it matches any criteria. The first thing you should do is to go to the <a href="https://akismet.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4290c5; text-decoration: none; transition: background 0.15s linear, color 0.15s linear, border 0.15s linear;" target="_blank">Akismet website</a> and hit the <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Say Goodbye to Comments Spam</strong> button.</div>
