Wordpress, initially developed as a platform for blogging, has presently become one of the rampantly utilized Content Management System (CMS) over the web. This CMS is no more restricted to blogging, but is now preferred by a number of government agencies, media organizations as well as standalone bloggers. The striking feature is that one can upload WordPress in one’s individual web space and there are free blogs which can be accessed through WordPress dot com.
Let’s take a glance at the opposite side of the coin now. Because of its immense popularity and considerable market share, WordPress has almost become an ‘apple of the eye’ for hackers and other cyberspace criminals. Once a criminal is able to make his way into any WordPress site, he can transform the same into a malicious site that will download harmful codes into the devices (desktops, laptops, etc.) from which the page is viewed. Further the criminals can indulge in vandalism and information theft leading to dire consequences for your site as well as your personal identity. Hence, it’s high time you become aware of the possible threats to your WordPress site, so that you can defend your site against malicious attacks while doing WordPress development.
Common WordPress Security Threats
Forced Login: This refers to attempts by unauthorized users to infiltrate into your site by using different combinations of usernames as well as passwords. Most of the times, these people will be able to break into your website because they have the requisite tools and programs. But there is always a way out. You can go for passwords that are more secure and also limit the number of attempts for logging in through a plug-in installation.
Validation of login information: In case the user enters some incorrect information, the present login form informs him exactly in which part the mistake has occurred. For example, in case the user puts in a wrong username and the correct password, Wordpress will immediately inform that the username is incorrect. This validation of wrong information becomes a serious threat to the security of WordPress because it gives the hacker in-depth information about which part of the login details he needs to change. To fix this problem, there is a particular line of code which you can enter into the functions.php file of the Wordpress theme which will just tell the user that the login information is incorrect, without going into further details.
Registration across the globe: All Wordpress sites allow registration from any part of the globe by anyone. However, by default, this function is disabled. It is advisable not to enable this function unless you want to reach out to a global audience. To make sure that this particular option is disabled, go for ‘General’ settings in the ‘Settings’ tab and uncheck the option which allows any person to register. If you wish people to comment or offer feedback on the content of your website, use a different commenting system for the same rather than allowing visitors to directly register with your site.
Easy Admission for Editors: Owners of WordPress sites are usually in the habit of providing access to those who would be editing the content of the site. This indeed is a good option so far as the layout and design is concerned, but there is always the risk of people obtaining unauthorized access to the dashboard, from where it is possible to change the background, layout, theme and other features of the site. However, you can conveniently prevent such access by entering a specific line of code in the functions.php file.
Version of WordPress: The latest version of Wordpress comes with 37 bug fixes which include remedies for three critical security loopholes. Older versions possess these flaws and hence are susceptible to attack by cyberspace criminals. It is always good to use the most updated version of WordPress. However, if you are unable to do so, you can simply hide information that reveals the WordPress version you are using.
Remember that with the growing popularity of this CMS, hackers with come up with newer means to cause a breach in the WordPress security systems. Hence, one should always adopt the latest and most stable version, enhance login security and restrict global registration to avoid WordPress security threats. Happy Blogging!

It all started with Peter Millar, a multichannel retailer, dealing in various types of clothing, accessories and sportswear. As consumers increasingly became aware of and began to express interest in their versatile fashion collections, Peter Millar felt the need for an ecommerce platform that would explicitly reflect their brand image and accelerate the business growth process. The company focused on three key parameters:
- Betterment of website design for enhancing the user-experience in order to reflect their brand identity as a luxury retailer more precisely.
- Implementation of an efficient solution that would help the company effectively reach out to its target audience browsing websites through desktops, laptops, Smartphones, tablets and various other devices.
- Extension of the Magento functionality to enhance site performance and cater to channel partners in a more efficient manner, by more gracefully presenting all the product catalogues.
To address each of these requirements, Peter Millar chose to utilize the Magento platform’s flexibility within a responsive design framework to fulfill the business needs through customization of front-end as well as back-end elements. Before detailing on how fashion retailer Peter Millar drove multichannel growth through application of Magento and responsive design, let us explore the positive impacts of these two elements on ecommerce business.
Magento E-Commerce development: The key advantages
Magento offers an open-source freely downloadable CMS platform for website developers. The striking feature is that Magento’s shopping cart can be utilized at no additional cost. This CMS is a boon for ecommerce businesses because of the following reasons:
- Customized Business Solutions: Magento comes in four versions, namely, Magento Community, Magento Enterprise, Magento Enterprise Premium and Magento Go. Each version is designed based on specific business requirements. Moreover, modules, extensions widget, themes and add-ons can be easily customized. Magento also has a mobile friendly version.
- Short Market Time: For any business looking for a platform that can be made available to the market within a short period of time, Magento, with its free design templates, is the ideal choice.
- Search Engine friendly: Magento has inherent SEO features which permit the modification and optimization of web page elements like Meta tags and page titles to ensure better ranking in search engine result pages.
- Currency Updates: Magento’s updated currency format is a boon for international sellers. The straightaway link to WebService X allows this platform to modify item prices according to exchange rate fluctuation.
- Community Shopping: This CMS offers a brilliant platform for indirect marketing by inviting customers to read and write reviews of services and products, save items through the ‘Wishlist’ functionality and promote community shopping through ‘Send a Friend’ option.
- Rich Features: Several product options (bundled, group, configurable, etc) embedded within this CMS platform allows businesses to efficiently organize their stock.
- Responsive Design: Benefits for Ecommerce Businesses
- Usability: This is a very important factor so far as Ecommerce websites are concerned. Responsive design allows users to browse your site from desktops laptops or mobiles without downloading specific apps. Moreover, responsive design ensures quick access and high quality full website experience for customers even on mobile devices thus enhancing conversion rates.
- Time and Cost Effectiveness: Since a single website adjusts according to the size of the devices, companies need not spend time or money building and maintaining multiple websites.
How leveraging Magento and Responsive Design helped Peter Millar
The responsive framework enabled Peter Millar to provide world-class user experience across a range of devices. With an upgraded look and feel of the website, the multichannel retailer was able to rope in the company spirit within the site. Extra effect was added through application of color swatching in the pages containing product details, so that manifold apparel options can be gracefully represented. The implementation of an interactive store locator ensured the flow of visitors to local retail outlets. The page loading speed was also accelerated through Magento’s hosting configuration and caching functionality.
The responsive framework coupled with an effective CMS like Magento, enabled Peter Millar to enhance its site visits, including visits through mobile devices. There was also a rise in organic conversion rate and order value across desktops and mobiles. This is a significant indication for fashion retailers, intending to drive multichannel growth, to switch to Magento within a responsive framework.

Today 55% of the 1 million most visited websites that are run on a content management system (CMS) are run on WordPress. WordPress is the finest CMS and is very stable and easy to use, but so are Joomla and Drupal. WordPress is a free open source blogging platform that everybody likes because it supports multi-users and multi-blogging. Users can download plugins and widgets, which are available free on WordPress community portals, to enhance the functionality and user-experience of the websites or blogs they author using WordPress.
When launching a website, you can often forget a number of things in haste to launch the site sooner, which makes the site prone to errors and subsequently get penalized in Google search rankings. So, it is useful to have a checklist to look through as you make your final touches and before you announce your website live and open to the world.
Let us take a look at the top 5 mistakes that new WordPress authors/bloggers can make while working with WordPress website.
1) Slow Website Loading Time:
One of the key issues which will displease your visitors is the web site loading time. If there are many plugins and widgets loaded then you might face this error or if your net host does not provide quality hosting services or you are running on a shared hosting where you don’t have a lot of features enabled. If you're facing such problems, it’s high time to get rid of all needless plugins and obtain a better net hosting for your blog. Now a days there are many WordPress certified web hosting companies who provide you with one click hosting for WordPress and they make the installation easier and quicker. That way you can avoid this issue of WordPress installation if you don’t have too many customizations to be done.
2) White Screen of Death:
Almost 70% WordPress users have faced this error. It happens when PHP resources are broken down and browser shows a white screen without any error. Major reasons for occurrence of this error can are: Theme is broken, Use of Incompatible Plugins, Leaving an extra space in wp-config.php. To avoid this error, we use premium themes. Premium themes are best if bought off the shelf. However to have specific features which you love to have, it is often best to hire a developer from a certified Wordpress development Indiacompany. That way you ensure the themes are compliant with latest HTML CSS standards. While checking with the vendor you researched and found, ask him for his past projects and have a look at the items specifically which you want to build and if they have an expertise in that area.
3) Database Connection Errors:
Most of these errors appear at least once in your blog/website setup process. Database connection errors can occur due to a corrupt database or if blog is unable to create a database connection. You can get rid of such errors by checking and fixing the issues in your MySQL Databases. Creating MySQL database for a simple theme is easy. However, if you intend to create customized forms, you might need to have customizations in your MySQL database. A perfectly tuned database would help you remove the performance issues with the database.
4) Your Site is De-Indexed:
So this is a minor mistake that anyone can do but the result of this minor mistake will be catastrophic. In WordPress there is an option to keep blogs “Private”.
People use this option because they don’t want to show their private information with search engines. But if you are seeking for web traffic and you haven’t gained it then you might check out if your blog setting is set to Private or not.
5) Wrong Sidebar Widget Placements:
Many bloggers suggest to keep their blogs straightforward and simply accessible. By adding some lovely sidebar widgets which enhances the lucidity of your website’s content flow, you can pep up your user engagement on the website. If you wish to feature sidebar widgets in your WordPress blog then you should add widgets which are absolutely necessary and not just because they are available :)
There are vendors who provide full range of services including WordPress design, development and consulting. Weigh between vendors and judge them based on their extensive expertise in implementing WordPress as a content management system, building integrations and designing and developing custom themes and plugins.
