I watch the statistics for my website (mainly using the great little squarespace app for the iPhone).

I normally get between a few hundred and a thousand hits to my site per day.

However, earlier this week I noticed a spike of traffic to my site - almost 6000 hits to my side on one day, and over a thousand on another day...

This evening when I went to check my logs I discovered that the page that was being 'viewed' was my login page! In fact I have had 6200 visits to that page this week! That can only mean one thing - someone has been trying to hack into this blog.

Why?!

So, if you're trying to hack my site, drop me a line, tell me what you want to post.

You may be surprised to find that I'm quite a friendly guy!

God bless,

Dion

Response: register trademark for website

It is to important to secure your website from hackers. I have purchased a trademark for my website so that it's almost impossible to hack it now.

Aw, shucks, did I not succeed? Hijacking Dion Forster's blog seemed like the next best thing to taking over the world. Only kidding. Not me. :-)
