It’s the last thing any one should ever experience – an attack from hackers.

Yet if you have any online presence in the form of a blog, website or let’s face it, any tools, service or product you use that you can login to, you’re at risk of being hacked.

And when it happens to you, like it did to me last week, it reminds you of all the things you ‘should’ have done to protect yourself and your online assets.

I learned a few lessons from this experience and have shared them in this ‘slightly longer than 15 minutes’ Fresh in Fifteen episode so you can prepare yourself in advance and not have to go through this yourself.

I think we all underestimate just how important it is to do regular backups of our websites, ensure we backups to our backups, updated plugins and versions of our software…the list goes on.

It also takes effort, it’s not something you typically set and forget. So in this episode I share 3 things you can do immediately to make sure you won’t get hacked!

In this Fresh in fifteen episode, I’ll share 3 tips to secure and save your website from hackers and also I will be doing more live website reviews.

Here are 3 more websites I chose to review as if I was a first time visitor:

  1. thehealthtransformationcoach.co.uk
  2. realenergyfood.com
  3. bohemianbranding.com

You can listen in or also watch the video below as I go through the websites!
