Chris Jenkins and Rob Maggs got fed up with hackers attacking their WordPress sites. They wanted to put a stop to it.

Hacking is no joking matter. It causes marketers many millions in damages each yer. When your site is hacked,
■ You suffer financial loss
■ Your reputation is ruined
■ Search engines no longer trust you; your site is blacklisted
■ Restoration is difficult or impossible, depending on how good your backups are.
■ You face potential legal problems

It’s not a situation you want to face. But with care, it is almost always avoidable. Here’s the first step (one that Magges and Jenkins had failed to take):

As vulnerabilities in the software are found, the developers issue updates. But they only do you any good if your install them.

That may not be a big issue if you only have one site, but if you have several (as Maggs and Jenkins did) it can be a real time-waster to log on to each and install the latest upgrade. So you tend to put it off.

Maggs and Jenkins have many, many sites. Whenever a new version of WordPress (such as 3.7, issued last week [you have updated to 3.7, haven’t you? IM NewsWatch did]), they had to log on to each site and made the update.

To put an end to this madness, they created WP Blog Updater. With it, you can update a hundred sites in less personal time than you spend updating a single site manually.

No longer do you need to procrastinate keeping your sites up to date. Now it’s a simple matter of telling WP Blog Updater what sites you have (you do it once and save the list) and then clicking one button whenever you want updates made to:
• WordPress, itself ( version 3.8 is coming in a few weeks)
• WP Themes
• WP Plugins

It does all the work in the background while you go on to more productive tasks.

By the way, on their sales page, they have a video showing you some of the most important security fixes you can make to your site. Combined with prompt updates, your site will be much safer for you and your customers.

With only 1 blog, you can get along without this plugin. But with multiple sites, you will save enough time to quickly pay for this new software.
