My Blog Got Hacked!!
No not my blog, but yes, it happens to some people, and yes it sucks to have your beautiful blog to lose all its nice and great database of posts just because some punk hacked into it. It’s always a recommended routine for every bloggers out there to constantly backup their database(s) to treasure the time and effort they’ve spent on their blogs. Mostly all blogging systems such as WordPress, Typepad, etc have their own set of plugin databases which provide great addons to apply such backups.
Make it better, some even do it automatically for you periodically, how does that sound like for you? Even if you’re hosting your blog in a free hosting blog like blogger or wordpress.com, there’s no reason why you can’t backup your precious data and kick away that fear of losing all of it.
I was browsing and searching around to see if there was any such “incident ” happened lately and yes there was a few. One great read came from a blog called BloggingForBusinessBook.com. The author is even planning of writing some anti hack tips, so you might want to check it out often for any updates.
He did however, mentioned a good point which never came across my mind.
Should you by some unfortunate circumstances, do get hacked, you can always get back some if not all of your posts through some of the caching services out there such as Google Cache and Internet Wayback Machine. This is a great alternative to recover your hard work if you have left out the idea of backing up your blog in the first place.
