Top 4 WordPress Backup Tips That Every User Should Know
Well I am guessing that you are looking to back up your website.
But before you do that, let me share with you some precautionary advice
that I've compiled over the years while using WordPress.
Believe me, I learned things the hard way: in the beginning,
I didn't even bother to create a WordPress backup until I lost
all my files one day due to a web server incident—
and that really got me started on my doing backups regularly!
To help you avoid file loss mistakes like the one I went through,
I suggest you follow the four best backup tips
that I'm going to share with you today.
This way, you can have a safer, smoother
backup process for your own website.
The Top 4 WP Backup Tips to Secure Your Database
1. Perform Regular Backups
I publish fresh content almost every day,
I do weekly backups to secure my new posts and pages.
It might seem unnecessary but I don't really want
to risk losing any recent work I've done.
The frequency is up to you, but backing up your database
on a regular basis is highly recommended especially
after you've worked so hard to build your site.
I suggest setting up a strict schedule
(daily, every Thursdays, every two weeks, every end of the month,
et cetera) so you won't forget.
2. Use a Reliable Plugin
Are you too busy to do the backups yourself?
Then turn to WordPress plugins instead!
Some of the best ones to download are WP-DB-Backup, XCloner,
myRepono, WordPress Backup to Dropbox, WP Online Backup
and WordPress EZ Backup.
My personal favorite, by far, is a premium plugin called WP Twin.
It allows you to not only backup quickly and easily
but to clone sites from one installation to another.
There is also an option for automatic backups at
pre-set intervals that you select.
3. Set up a Free Email Account
Another good tip is creating a new account
with a web-based email service.
Gmail, Yahoo Mail and Aol Mail are some of the most
trusted ones you can try.
After doing a backup, just send the files
to your email—this way,
you'll have a second source in case your computer
breaks down out of the blue.
4. Create a Backup with Your Web Host
Most WordPress hosting services nowadays include
automatic backups in their subscription plans.
Some companies offer them for free,
but others will charge you for it.
You might want to check with your provider first
to see what your plan covers.
Also, be sure that you're with a reliable web host
to begin with so you can always make proper backup copies.
As you can see, you have plenty of options
when it comes to backing up your WordPress site.
Apply these WP backup tips today so you can provide
the best possible security for your website database!
