SEO Practices Blog Updated to WordPress Version 2.6.3

I have finally updated my blog to the most recent version of WordPress: 2.6.3. Lots of spammers have been hacking WordPress blogs recently. If you run a WordPress blog make sure you do it as soon as possible if you don’t want to go through the hustle of getting it hacked.

I have also added a plugin that upgrades your Blog automatically. WPAU helps you easily upgrade your wordpress installation to the latest version, without having to download or upload any files. You can find the plugin at:

WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin

Take the time to do it, it will only take you a few minutes.
