text: What you did just now is enabled the Login Attempt Limiter and a bunch of other security measures while making your IP immune to them.
  Because I know I do sometimes (often) forget my password and try like a gazillion different variations of the same password till one fits in. So you don’t want to be banned from your own website and that’s why you need to whitelist your own IP address.
  I promised to make a fortress of your website, the fortress I will make. Not entirely essential, website backups can be lifesavers when you are wondering how to make website secure. Why? Something always goes wrong and having a possibility to rewind is like that extra can of beer in the back of the fridge.
  So for example, using SiteGround I already have an automated backup feature. It’s built-in and backs my website every day so I can restore it to the previous version at any time.
  But this is a free tutorial and you might not be using SiteGround or another provider that has this feature.
  So let’s quickly go to the “Plugins” and choose “Add New.” Now, in the search tab, enter “Updraft” – install and activate it.
  So let's set up our backups. For “File Backup Schedules” I like to set it to Weekly – I’ll get my files and databases backed up once a week. Now for the backup storage, I always pick Google Drive (or any cloud storage option available to you).
  Why’s that? Well, you can reach it from anywhere and it won’t simply break. The problem with storing your data on the computer is that if your hard drive dies, you might not be able to restore it.
  Now, save the changes and you’ll need to give UpDraft access to your Google Drive. A popup will appear and you'll simply need to follow the steps.
