❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about WordPress password security

How often should I change my WordPress password?

We recommend changing your WordPress admin password every 90 days, or immediately if you suspect any security breach. Use our password generator to create strong, unique passwords each time.

Is the password checker tool safe to use?

Yes! Our password strength checker runs 100% in your browser using JavaScript. Your password is never transmitted to our servers or stored anywhere. You can verify this by checking your network tab or using the tool offline.

What makes a WordPress password strong?

A strong WordPress password should be at least 12 characters long, include uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters (!@#$%^&*). Avoid dictionary words, personal information, and common patterns. Use our password generator for instant strong passwords.

Can I use the same password for multiple WordPress sites?

Absolutely not! Using the same password across multiple sites is extremely dangerous. If one site gets compromised, hackers will try that password on all your other sites. Always use unique passwords for each WordPress installation.

Do you offer WordPress security services?

Yes! We offer comprehensive WordPress security audits, malware removal, security hardening, and ongoing monitoring services. Check out our service packages below for more details.

What should I do if my WordPress site was already hacked?

Act immediately! Change all passwords, scan for malware, check for unauthorized admin users, review file changes, and restore from a clean backup if available. Our Emergency Response package can help you recover within 24 hours.
