There are many aspects to keeping your website secure.

Your password

You have probably heard this ons numerous times. But we can't repeat it enough. Choose a good password containing letter, numbers and other characters. Don't choose something to obvious.

When you think your password has been comprimised, don't change it immediately. First try to determine the source of your password leak and fix it. If the leak continous to exist, it's likely that your password will be compromised again in the future. When your password leak has been fixed, it's time to change it.

Updates

Another key aspect of securing your site is keeping it up to date. If you are using a cms, use Google to search how to update it. If you wrote a custom website, lookout for updates for the libraries you used to create your website.
