WARNING: WP blogs Installed with Fantastico are not secure!

November 28th, 2008 1 comment

I received a shoking email from Micheal Savoie. (He`s founder of MyBloggingSchool.com and WiredSocialProfits.com)

When I read his message, I was shocked…

He said If you usec Fantastico to install your wordpress blog, hackers can take over your blog!

To understand how serious this is, here are few lines of the email I got:
“Fantastico uses the same username and database name, wrdp1, in all first installations of a WordPress blog on a site. Subsequent installations are still easy to guess, with Fantastico just changing the number to wrdp2, wrdp3, etc.”

Do I have to say This info is a goldmine to hackers! If they know your username and database name, they have reached 2/3 of cracking your blog!

Basically The only thing they need to know is your password and you can kiss your blog goodbye…
…and unfortunately Those b*stards have the software tools that go through all the possible password combinations and if they figure out your password, your blogging career is smashed into million pieces!

What Can I say, Wp blogs installed with Fantastico are in serious danger!

But before you delete your wp blog and curse Fantastico, you should know this issue can be fixed…

Yeah, fantastico gives you the fast way to install wp but it obviously leaves your blog in danger.

To fix this issue and make your blog secure, Micheal Savoie offers a guide called “Fixing Fantastico Blog Installations”

The guide is free for first 1000 people and then he begins to charge for it so you better download your copy of the guide right now!

It took me about 15 minutes to secure my blog following the instructions in the guide and it`s quite easy stuff. I recommend you check out the guide above and fix your blog so you`ll sleep better knowing your blog is secure.

Take Care,

Collective $100 Million dollars! (free training)

November 25th, 2008 5 comments

Okay, when I first heard of this, I thought it was a joke…

I mean: “$100 Million dollar challenge!” sounds like another get rich fast scam!

But when I saw who`s behind this, I changed my mind. It`s Russell Brunson who had this crazy idea to train people to make collective $100 Million dollars…And his training is absolutely free!

And to be honest, everything Russell touches turns to gold so I had to check it out. (even if the title sounded like crap…)

What I noticed first when I logged in was really cool: He`s helping people to earn their first $1 online by giving you one dollar for everyone YOU refer! That`s easy money if you ask me!

and you`ll also get a free blog…(Yeah, blogging is cool like I told you before…LOL!)

But what`s his free training all about? Is it any good?

Well, there are 4 sets of videos that reveal lots of good stuff.

Here`s screenshot of the first set:

100 million challenge

100 million challenge

That`s just the first set and there`s 3 more sets of videos!

This is how it goes: Each phase has 4 videos, 4 quizzes and 4 assignments. After completing each quiz and assignment, you will be given unlock codes. Paste the unlock codes into the boxes at the left. As soon as you have unlocked the 4 quiz’s and 4 assignments in Phase #1, you will be taken to phase #2.

So, Russell`s making it sure you actually learn this stuff!

Personally I´ve enjoyed The $100 Million dollar challenge (But the NAME of the course still sounds bad) and I recommend you check it out. It`s all free so you got nothing to lose!

In fact, If you`re starting out online, this is your change to make your first dollars `cause you`ll get $1 for every person you refer…

…and If you`re already making money online and have a list you can mail, you can help people and build `trust` by referring them to this awesome training…

P.S. I forget to mention: The Winner of this contest gets brand new Corvette…pretty cool!

Blog finally open…I`m Freaking out…FREE STUFF…

Whew!

Blogging is cool, right? (Yeeeaaa!)

There are lots of folks out there saying it`s supposed to be easy and FAST to put up a blog and start writing…(I´m talking about self-hosted worpress blogs here btw…)

THEY say things like: “Just go to your cpanel and hit the “fantastico” and it`s installed in seconds…”

Well, I agree so far…

Then they continue “login, choose your blog theme (or download one) and begin to write!”

Sure sounds easy! Just go and do it!

Well, That`s bullsh*t if you ask me! (sorry `bout my tone but you`ll understand me soon…)

You know, I`ve been setting up my blog for a week and to be honest, it has been quite a pain! Well, I could`ve hired someone to desing me a cool blog and set everything up but what`s the point? I want to do stuff on my own and learn…

Okay, I didn`t want those basic templates `cause they suck if you ask me…I mean, the basic theme with gigantic blue header with white text size of an elephant on it…NO FREAKING WAY!

I searched for a ´perfect` template for hours but I didn`t found anything that matched my criteria…and besides I wanted to have my own header on my blog…so I decided to design my own theme.

I bought one pretty cool wysiwyg software and after about 3-4 hours of work I got my theme ready to roll!

I uploaded my theme and I was steamed up! Hooray, Now all I have to do is write some stuff!

Guess what?

When I loaded my blog for a first time to check it out It had some ugly looking title text standing in front of my header! I wanted to get rid of a title text and tagline! it was obvious that If I remove the description from my admin area, the problem will go away. (sigh…) What I discovered is this: If I remove the title, my blog is not search engine friendly anymore and it causes problems with rss and stuff…

…and this followed: couple of hours more work to search how to properly hide my text and tag!

oh yeah, one more thing about blogs: They don`t use html so much, they use XHTML and it`s all greek to me!

But I managed to hide the title text and stuff but then I figured out I need to have rss on my blog also…and all of these bookmarking things and I need to set up my permalinks so they don`t look like crap…

You know, It took me a whole week to set up my blog and I`m not even finished yet…But at the moment I really don`t care! I`ve done lots of work with this and I need a break!

I want to show you a really ugly photo of me freaking out so you understand better:

Yeah, that`s me Freaking out!

Yeah, that`s me Freaking out!

Sorry If I scared you but that`s how I feel right now…I really need some rest…so I can actually write some stuff on my blog…

BE WARNED: if someone is telling you “It`s easy and fast to set up a blog…”

…I say: “You can go and create a blog really fast…but this is what you`ll get: crappy looking blog with the Blue giant header!”

I don`t know how much I need to recover (No kidding, I´m exhausted…) So I better give you some FREE STUFF you can read while waiting my next post!

Okay, this is really cool stuff and you don`t need to opt-in or anything to get it!

Thanks for reading and take care,
