Backup Creator – WordPress Backup Plugin

One of the downsides of doing business in the Internet Age is that we are continuously under the potential threat of having our web files hacked into and our business and personal data stolen, manipulated or even being completely erased.

If you own any business assets like a website or blog, then you need to always keep in mind website security and the urgency of implementing a digital security plan.

As well as implementing an internet security and site recovery plan for your business, you will also want to protect your files from mistakes that can result in data loss and set your business back. Having a way to completely restore your site, files or data in extreme cases is something that can only be appreciated once it’s too late.

Then again, you may also want to save time. If your business requires setting up a number of websites or blogs, having an automated way to copy web site information from one website to another would be quite convenient.

As the wise old adage goes, “it’s better to be safe than sorry.” Backing up your website’s data, therefore, is not just important, it is imperative. The truth, however, is that left to their own devices, people almost never do it, or don’t do it as often as these things should be done.

Let’s face it … getting your site hacked, losing data, and installing scripts that can corrupt your site is all part of the reality of managing an online business presence. If disaster ever strikes, then you will need a quick and easy way to recover old files, get back an earlier version of your site, or complete reinstall your site and data.

Fortunately, if your website or blog is powered by WordPress, then you can easily create backups of your WP database and website or blog files, copy your website to another location and restore previous backups of your site.

Plugin Tips

Here are some great uses for this tool:

Document Your Site Processes As You Go.

Instead of spending a lot of time documenting all the processes you would normally have to document when setting up new sites, you can just set up your site exactly the way you want it, make a backup copy|make an exact replica of site and then restore it to another location and you’ve now got an exact, “documented” copy of your site setup.

For example, let’s say that you want to set up multiple blogs with identical plugins, settings, and configurations in other niche markets. This could be for a franchised food service outlet, or a travel agency with offices in various locations, where each office will manage the content of their own separate blog. Think of all the time spent tweaking and fine-tuning your site so that it looks just right and works exactly the way you want it to. You can now save loads of time and install a fully-functioning, completely configured blog every single time with just a couple of mouse clicks.

Restore A Backup On A Different Location With Correct Referencing Links.

Simply backing up WP files and restoring file backups won’t duplicate your websites or blogs successfully. You also have to copy the WordPress database and ensure that your site URLs point to the new domain. Otherwise, your database data will be restored to another location, but still be referencing the old site. That’s why you need to use a WP backup plugin that was specifically created for cloning. This allows you to perform a backup of site ”A” in seconds and restore it to site ”B” in minutes with all your theme customizations, plugins, settings and configurations intact, and everything will be pointing to the new site (i.e. site “B”), instead of the old one (site “A”).

Don’t Waste Time Fixing Serious Problems … Just Restore!

Here’s another practical time-saving tip: if your website did get hacked, or an unauthorized user somehow gets in and causes damage to your site, don’t spend days or weeks trying to repair the problem, just make a backup of your files and database, delete your old site, and restore a previous working copy. Your site will be immediately restored and you can then send the damaged site’s backup files to a WordPress troubleshooter who can then try to figure out how your site got broken into and how to fix or report any vulnerabilities.

Here’s one more final tip:

Keep A Historical Record Of Your Website’s Evolution.

Imagine a few years from now that your business has grown and transformed into an online success. Wouldn’t it be great to show people how it all got started? Or maybe you’ve changed things around on your site so much and would like to bring things back to a place of simplicity. Perhaps you’ve accidentally deleted a bunch of videos and want to get those back.

If you keep a weekly backup of your site, the chances of losing important information are almost negligible because you no longer have to be concerned about where everything has been stored or organized. Just recall when you remember you had that content, restore the backup (note: it can be located anywhere, even on a test site) and grab the data you need.

I just have to write and give a HUGE testimonial to Robert for the level of his support. I am one of the purchasers who wanted to copy my blog from one of the less than popular hosts to one of the more popular hosts. To make matter worse, my blog is quite complex. I encountered problem after problem each time I went to make my backup copy. I reported this via the support desk and almost immediately I began receiving support including updates of the software. It took several iterations before the problem was solved but Robert never stopped working to get it right for my site. The level of support has been stellar. So, Robert, I say “Thank You” once again for support that is platinum level.” Eddie Durham, InfiniteCashMachine.com
