Reply To: User Account Locked – User Account Locked Repeatedly, User Account Locked Every Hour

Yes, you are correct.  The default WordPress “admin” user account is the first user account that all hackerbots and spambots try.  You need to create a new WordPress Administrator user account, log out of your site, log into your site with that new Administrator user account and delete the WordPress default “admin” user account.  VERY IMPORTANT!  Make sure you associate all content to your new Administrator user account or your content (Posts and Pages) will be deleted.
