| Username | setupadmintempadmin | You probably do not want to use the default admin for username. WordPress (as of Sep 2012) out of the box, has no facilities to stop dictionary attacks against the administration system. Admin will be the first username guessed by automated attacks. Also keep in mind that anything you Because the username put here will show up in the default site generated after the setup and publicly accessible anyway, this will be a temporary administrator account. | |
| Password | As mentioned, WordPress has no facilities to stop dictionary attacks. On top of that, the default setup exposes your administrator account name on the Internet. Choose a very very long and complex password. (Anyone know of a good site that shows how quickly an entered password would be broken with a dictionary attack, put the link here) | ||
| Your E-mail | admin@bonsaiframework.com | Even in a small company you should have a general support email box that only administrators have access to. Use that rather than your personal email address. This email address will be used for password recovery purposes | Whatever email is chosen here, it will not be the final one used by the real administrator account. Keeping in mind that WordPress does not allow duplicate emails, in this example, the administrator will use a personal email and then use a proper email account when the real administrator account is created. |
| Privacy | This depends on the purpose of your website. Unless this is a private site that should not show up on Google, leave it checked. |
