Comment on Get The Shield! Our WordPress Security Firewall Goes Pro by Mark.
Hello Paul
Your plugin does its job well for me. I have built and manage some sites for small charities. I have used the free and pro versions of several of your competitors and settled on yours, first for these small sites and now use it as a matter of course.
The key has been that your plugin is light weight in its function, and still provides the things needed. On shared hosting, which is where these small sites are typically hosted, with the plans offering “unlimited everything”, as you would well know, the key is resource usage, which is what is monitored and controlled by the hosts.
All other things being equal, and after implementing CDN and caching etc, heavy resource usage is typically worst from security plugins running resource heavy scans continually.
I note your intention to purchase access to commercially available security vulnerability databases. The key will be how you implement the use of these, and how much of a resource hog the process is.
