Congratulations! Now you have successfully changed your username.

To protect your site from hackers and spammers, here are some helpful tips to follow:

  1. Your username is also your author name for your blog posts. It is always good to use a name that people would love to link and share on their social media sites.
  2. Use a username that is unique, professional and easy to remember. Don’t use special characters as this makes it complicated.
  3. Some people use “Admin”” as their username. If you are using this name, please change it as soon as possible- as it is very easy for hackers to guess and scan for.
  4. In relation to your password, make sure that you are using upper and lowercase letter, special characters and numbers. Hackers are everywhere so you have to be smarter than them!
