You can easily create a custom login URL if you want to take your WordPress login page customization to the next level. This can also improve the security of your website. WordPress comes with two default login URLs:
https://yoursitename.com/wp-admin
https://yoursitename.com/wp-login.php
WordPress users will find it easier to remember where to log in as a result of this. Unfortunately, it also makes websites vulnerable to brute force attacks, which involve guessing login credentials repeatedly until a correct combination is found.
Changing the WordPress login URL can help protect against this possibility because hackers will need to guess more than your WordPress username and password to gain access to your admin dashboard.
