POLICE.ME

Honest and common-sense alternatives to paid iThemes Security Pro plugin.

Inspired by the popular plugin iThemes Security.

iThemes Security plugin adds 36 milliseconds of global site drag. That’s a common problem with popular plugins where every page and post of your site slows down. But the bigger problem the plugin causes is hosting account warnings that you’ve exceeded your server resource limits. That can get your site shutdown. Zero speed!

You can get the same website protection functions for free with standalone plugins – and produce even better results.

iThemes Security Pro premium has an $80-annual, blogger-class, *rental* fee. Don’t get locked in for recurring annual-renewal plugins. Save your money.

NOTE: If you’re using free WordFence Security plugin, it slows down your site by 545 milliseconds on every page and post. Even worse!

The POLICE.ME ebook contains honest and common-sense free alternatives to the premium iThemes Security plugin. Get mobile WordPress speed!
