(*7*)
Nulled themes and plugins are paid material that you distribute piratedly. We tell you 7 reasons to avoid them.
1. Nulled themes and plugins are illegal
La comunidad de WordPress es muy partidaria de la filosofía open source (* 7 *) and free distribution (* 7 *). But there is always material that is protected by laws that defend copyright and intellectual property.
Every time someone distributes nulled material they are incurring breaches of laws (* 7 *) that protect developers and their work.
Las leyes asociadas con la Web varían de país en país. Por lo que cada clegal sequence (* 7 *) to use Pirate material would vary (* 7 *) depending on where you are.
But in some cases it can mean a huge mess, with all that that implies: lawyers and so on.
Or put another way: time, money and depending on which sites: your freedom.
Nothing, in short, if you want to use something cheap save and buy the material Premium (* 7 *).
2. They compromise the security of your data
Ok, okay, the internet is partly a lawless land and using illegal material may not lead to a trial. The problem with material of unknown or illegal origin is that you never know what is behind it.
Ask yourself this:
¿Por qué alguien invertiría su valioso tiempo en romper o encontrar el serial de un plugin o un tema para distribuirlo gratis?
Beyond altruism, which is doubted. Nulled material implies that someone:
- You legally purchased the plugin or theme.
- Spending hours fiddling with codes (* 7 *) until finding a serial to make it free.
What happens in most cases is that whoever hacks the theme, install some functionality that may well steal your data and / or that of your visitors and users (* 7 *).
3. Vienen cargados de Malware
Which means yes:
Nulled plugins and themes come loaded with Malware (* 7 *) of all kinds.
- Rear doors
- Viruses that can infectar tu equipo(*7*), el de tus visitantes, el server, etc.
- Trojans
- Material with advertising intrusiva(*7*) o pop-ups (* 7 *) (in many cases of contents ilegal(*7*) que bien te puede asegurar un lio con la justicia).
Not to mention that with the overcrowding of criptomonedas (*7*)los piratas han creado scripts y programas maliciosos de mining (* 7 *). These run mining tasks (* 7 *), taking advantage of the potential of your computer (* 7 *) and that of your visitors.
4. Cuestión de SEO
We all yearn that our website is positioned in the first places (* 7 *) of the results of Google (* 7 *).
Da igual cual be nuestra forma de monetization (* 7 *): advertising, sale of services or products, affiliation (* 7 *) or referrals.
We always yearn for the first place and that is why we are passionate about SEO.
That's why a nulled template or script doesn't suit us if we want to rank.
Why?
Because they do not have a clean code (* 7 *) (we told you that they come loaded with malware) vital when it comes to climbing positions. What makes them go slow and bad (* 7 *).
At the same time most redirect your visitors to websites with dangerous content (* 7 *).
Cuando las arañas de Google y de los demás buscadores detecten eso puede que ni te indexen (* 7 *).
5. No updates, no support
With everything it implies.
When you use pirated material, you expose yourself to all the vulnerabilities that arise.
At once no support (* 7 *), no way to write to customer service (* 7 *) that something in your theme doesn't work.
It's you and your problem.
One of the things we like the most about WordPress legal material (* 7 *) are the updates (* 7 *) that, in most cases, they send us daily.
They all have a reason for being: to go debugging bugs (* 7 *) and protecting the plugin or theme from the threats that arise every day.
When use nulled material (* 7 *) every day that passes you are most vulnerable and exposed (* 7 *).
Remember that threats come from outside. And if you use nulled, at the same time from inside.
Did we tell you that hackers always include malware?
6. You hurt developers
Let's say you don't mind taking the risk of malware and the other problems associated with the material from doubtful provenance (* 7 *).
Every time you use a cracked plugin or template you are hurting the developers (* 7 *) who have spent hours and hours creating the material that you intend to enjoy without paying a penny.
7. There is no reason to use nulled material
WordPress and its community are characterized by their philosophy of open source (* 7 *). Which means that there are thousands of free alternatives (* 7 *) in both plugins and themes.
At the same time you can create your own theme or plugin and on the way be a developer and earn money through the sale of your products.
