    Not sure what relevance this has to content management systems, and no offence but your tips provide no details on how to actually implement your suggestions.

    Hey CMS, about the category - I wasn't sure where else to post it either. I assumed running a blog and maintaining it's security would help fellow bloggers do the same.

    As far as explanation goes, these are 10 TIPS you can use to secure your website. You'll need to find out how to do them using a simple Google Search...

    You can't expect anyone to write out the exactly "how-to" details for every single tip mentioned there - it would be just too long.
    However on future posts, I would love to take the time and explain each one, thank you for the suggestion ;)

    EDIT - Especially the CHMOD Settings - I've seen tutorials dedicating 10s of pages just to explain it. Let alone edit it.

    Nice list but despite these precautions hackers are still breaking into many systems. Maybe you could also write an advanced anti-hacker tips?
