Backup the Database(s) and Site Files to one large zip Since most commercial sites likely will (or should) have multiple locations simply setup a SFTP server or other secured server and push backups periodically and automatically to that location.įor personal or non-commercial sites, where cost is a concern and the site is relatively small, a solution like Dropbox (with its 2GB storage limit), should suffice.
And this is likely the recommended for corporate or commercial sites. You can of course backup your site offsite to any other internet connected service. Enter using Dropbox as the offline service, coupled with a MySQL file backup script. Few offer automated backups and fewer still will automate your backups to any another server or service. The big issue with these backup solutions is the most of them are manual. Its a great method to migrate your site from one serer to another (assuming compatible server software). then you can email,or simply download the entire backup from there. Generally there’s a site backup link within the control panel that create a tar ball (.zip file) of the entire site and its contents. Most web hosts have the ability via their control panel to offer an entire site backup, and this is the minimal functionality you should consider.
