Would like to know all possible way to make my WordPress site secure from hackers.
Are there any experts who can share their tips here?

One of my co-workers shared these ones:
  • Create WordPress Sites on FLATsite
  • Use TLS or SSL Certificates
  • Utilize DDOS Protection
  • Implement a Website Back-up
Have you tried FLATsite static wordpress site generator? Is it really good solution?
So, could you share your view points on securing wordpress site from hackers?

Thanks.

Use a secure password, use 2FA on your web host account and cpanel account. Use security plugins (jetpack, wordfence) use security certificates, etc. By following these steps you can secure your site.
 
I use word fence a loginizer plugins, while word fence sends reports about traffic, loginizer limits login attempts on my site. I also secure my cpanel and domain register account with 2FA
 
The first step is to choose a good hosting company - that serves as the foundation for security.
Next thing to do is not install null themes; also install a good security plugin
Disabling file editing also helps
Install SSL
Create a strong unique password.
Hope this helps!
 
I don't really know how this can be done and besides I don't have much idea about WordPress because I can't even consider it as my website, instead of me to use WordPress i rather use a good domain to establish my own website because I consider it as solid an official.
 
If you want to make your site safe from hackers you need to create a strong password make your password to be very strong, there are a lot of setting to make your site safe from hackers.
 
If you use WordPress to build a website, I will advise you to install a plug-in called word fence. Word fence tips to prevent the penetration of hackers into your website. You can also upgrade to the paid version to straighten up the security of the website.
 
Hackers are all over every were you need to be very alertful while building a website try your possible way to see you keep your account safe from hackers.
 
Protect your assets with Lockdown Login capabilities utilizing features that enable you to determine how many login attempts a user can make before being locked out and which IP addresses are blocked (and for how long). An easy-to-use website security grading tool lets you see at a glance how secure your site is, and the plugin provides tips and recommendations for strengthening your defense.
This plugin also detects accounts with identical login and display
 
Use a secure password, use 2FA on your web host account and cpanel account. Use security plugins (jetpack, wordfence) use security certificates, etc. By following these steps you can secure your site.
I do not know but case differentiate if email from Cpanel or email from web hoster or email from Wordpress itself means needs to setup 3 2FA for each case.
 
To add to these, I would recommend setting up two factor authentication for Wordpress itself using yonder plugin.. That will hopefully stop hackers from being able to log in to your dashboard and cause untold damage.

I also think a spam filter (the most common one is Akismet) for Wordpress is very needed. Otherwise spammers can load your website with ugly while you’re away and may be able to take over from there if you have user accounts for comments.
