In order to secure your admin area from hackers, we recommend you allow access only from your selected IP to your admin directory. You just need to create a .htaccess file in the directory where you want to restrict access by IP address.

For example, if you have a WordPress blog installed on your main directory like “example.com/wp-admin” you should create an .htaccess file in /wp-admin/.htaccess and you should put this code in. Also, don’t forget to replace the allowed IP address with your IP address.

order deny,allow

deny from all

allow from YOUR-IP-ADDRESS-Here

(replace “YOUR-IP-ADDRESS-Here” text with your IP address)

You can test this by accessing your /wp-admin IP address from another IP address which is not allowed by your .htaccess file.
