Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several weeks of hard work due to no backup.
Do you have any methods to stop hackers?

Everything is very open with a very clear explanation of the challenges.
It was really informative. Your website is very useful.
Many thanks for sharing!
What you posted made a ton of sense. However, what about
this? what if you composed a catchier post title? I ain't suggesting your information is not solid, however what if you added a title to maybe grab folk's attention?

In my opinion, it would bring your posts
a little bit more interesting.
