I was attacked where somehow the attacker figured out my password, very, very bad. :( I'd like to ask you for some feedback. I'm starting a business to deal with exactly this problem. We'll offer fully managed WordPress hosting. So we'll manage all the upgrades, keep your plugins up to date, watch for new files, plug security holes, and so on. At this point, I'm not looking to sell you anything. We haven't opened doors for business yet. So it's purely feedback I'm looking for. Can you see value in having all of that managed for you, while you keep your own theme, ads, plugins, etc? Is it something you think people will pay for? Any other comments, suggestions or feedback on the idea would be great. Cheers - Callum. WordPress has had some nasty security issues lately.
