    wpsiteguardian.com claims wordfence does not

    Hi,

    These claims are false and the vendor is running an aggressive affiliate program promoting their product. We have a long track record of protecting our customers. We currently protect over 1 million sites and growing. We provide both excellent security and excellent customer service.

    We have at least one customer who has bought this vendor’s product and is now very unhappy. So caveat emptor. (buyer beware)

    Mark.
