Hey guys, it's Matt! After this video you have secured your WordPress website once and for all, so you never get hacked. We will be starting with the free version and then I will be upgrading to the Pro version. Plus you get a discount if you do. And I'm going to show you every benefit from the pro version. Let's dive in right now. To get the free version plus my personal discount code. Go to
https://wp.discount/solid/. This link is of course in the description of this video and in the comment section. And then we are at the website of SolidWP. Here we can get the pro version with my discount code for 10% off. And we can download the free version first. So let's do that. Click over here 'Download for free'. And then we click on this blue button 'Download'. Login to your WordPress website. Then on your dashboard we go over here to 'Plugins' - 'Add plugin'. Click on 'Upload plugin' and select the plugin we have just downloaded from Solid Security. Now, don't be confused. The zip name is called better-wp-security because that was a name they use years, years, years ago. This plugin is very old. They've been around for ages. Then we click over here on 'Open' and we click on 'Install now'. And then we click over here on 'Activate plugin'. Well done. The next step is to go over here to 'Security'. And then we go to 'Setup'. Then press on 'Allow and continue'. Welcome to the setup Wizard of Solid Security. I'm going to walk you through this step by step and set up all the options. So your website is thoroughly secured. And you will never have to look at it again. How does it work? Well, first of all, we need to tell Solid Security what kind of website we have. Do we have a simple website to promote your business? Choose the brochure. Do you have a e-commerce website? Choose this one. Why is this important? Well, you will notice in the next steps, when we'll be configuring for example, the user roles. Its very important that your visitors are not to be confused with clients that log in and shop on your website. Also with a network to connect people and community is very important to have the right rules and restrictions in Solid Security. For this website, I'm going to choose a brochure website. And then we press over here on 'Scan Site'. And then Solid Security has already found a issue because I have uploaded this old plugin on purpose, so you can see what happens. Make sure to schedule your site scan...
