Anyone who’s had a website for more than a few days has probably had their site hacked at least once. Aside from the obvious annoyances, this can actually hurt your organic ranking and bring your website traffic to a screeching halt.
The good news is that Donna Fontenot has come up with a pretty solid solution that notifies you when any files on your server are modified in any way. Her tool won’t stop hackers, but it will notify you if they change any of your files so that you can fix the problem before it has any impact on you.
I highly recommend that you download and install MonitorHackdFiles and if you can, help her spread the word about it too.
