Website Backup

Featured Replies

Hi there,

As the title implies, I would like to know what you use for backing up your website. I was using codeguard and thought it was good till I needed to restore my website after something broke and realize that the database was totally out of date, I was missing more then a week. It was suppose to backup every day. Now looking for a better solution and would like opinions.

Hello ! :)

Since I use WHM/CPanel on my server, I enabled their backup system to automatically backup my account and database.

I also do it myself everyday because I don't trust backup programs and so I setup  a "hand-made"  backup system using  a simple script of my own (automatically ran by cron) with simple commands such as tar and mysqldump.

And backups are sent to two different servers... :)

@SecondSightThank you,

I will look into the cron method, sounds like a good idea.
