Just one more reason to stop using WordPress for your client’s websites.
Wordfence analysts report having detected a massive wave of attacks in the last couple of days, originating from 16,000 IPs and targeting over 1.6 million WordPress sites.
The threat actors target four WordPress plugins and fifteen Epsilon Framework themes, one of which has no available patch.
Some of the targeted plugins were patched all the way back in 2018, while others had their vulnerabilities addressed as recently as this week.

Are you tired of dealing with the security problem, expensive annual plugin fees, website crashes due to poorly written plugin code, slow pages, poor Google rankings, etc.? If you answered YES to any of these questions, you are at the right place at the right time. We offer beautiful, professionally designed HTML5 websites that are sure to impress potential customers, and give a great first impression. You only have a couple of seconds to made a good first impression. That’s exactly what our websites do.
HTML5 is the native language of the Internet and websites that use a straight forward coding approach look better, are easier to create and maintain, don’t need expensive plugins with annual fees, don’t crash due to poorly coded plugins, it loads really fast and the cost is significantly lower to design an HTML5 website, than it is in other platforms.
Take a look at some of the design templates we offer in our design library . The templates are used as a starting point for your website. Each website is custom designed for the client’s specific brand. No two websites like the same, unlike most website designers that reuse a template over and over by just changing out images and content, otherwise the websites all look the same. This is common amongst bad designers. I have been told by designers that this is easy money for them. The websites are poorly designed, slow loading and never going to rank well on Google, but the designer made $1500 or $2000 profit.
We take pride in our work, and we deliver beautiful, well designed websites that are stunning and designed to convert visitors into paying clients. If you are a small to medium business owner, in need of a great website at the lowest prices possible, use out free quote form to request a quote.
