Having a reliable backup of your WordPress site is incredibly important if you don’t want to lose all your online work. In this post, we’ll cover some WordPress backup basics and how to backup a WordPress site in five simple steps.



WordPress Backup Basics

Before we begin, it’s important to cover some WordPress backup basics.
WordPress doesn’t have a built-in backup system.
By default, the WordPress software running your website doesn’t have a built-in backup system. So, it’s important to take the necessary steps to make sure you have a WordPress backup strategy in place.
Quite simply: If you don’t have a recent backup and your site is hacked or your server crashes, you could be facing a complete and total loss of your WordPress website.
You basically have three options when it comes to WordPress backups:
  1. Rely on your web host (or service provided by your web host) to backup your WordPress site
  2. Perform a manual backup by downloading all WordPress files from your server – see instructions here from the WordPress codex for backing up your WordPress site.
  3. Use a WordPress backup plugin like BackupBuddy

Pros & Cons of WordPress Backup Options

In the chart below, we outline some of the most important features of a WordPress backup solution and how each option shapes up.

Automatic, Scheduled Backups ✔ ✔ (check with host to confirm frequency) ✘ (manual process)
Backup All Files + Database ✔ ✔ (check with host to confirm Media Files + all files in site directory are included) ✔
Fast & Easy Restores ✔ ✔ (check with host to confirm)
Database Rollbacks ✔ ✔ (check with host to confirm)
Migration (Move to New Host or Domain) ✔ ✘ (usually requires support tech) ✘ (requires additional steps)
Downloadable Backup Zip Files ✔ ✔ (check with host to confirm) ✘ (files won’t be zipped by default)
Off-site Storage of Backup Files ✔ (includes multiple options) ✔ (check with host to confirm storage location) ✘ (you’ll have to set this up on your own)
Performance Relies on Quality of Host ✔ (Some shared hosting plans limit server resources, loopbacks, etc.) ✔ ✔

Why Use a WordPress Backup Plugin Like BackupBuddy?

Since host backup quality varies widely and manual backups are far too time-consuming, we recommend using a WordPress backup plugin to backup your WordPress site. Using a backup plugin will save you time, ensure you own your backup files and site data, and allow you to easily restore (or move) your WordPress site.
Our recommendation: Use BackupBuddy to save time and automate backups.
As explained in the chart above, running a backup plugin to handle backups for you has several advantages. One important component of a successful backup strategy is the ability to set up scheduled, automatic WordPress backups.

BackupBuddy includes a ton of backup scheduling options that most backup services provided by your host don’t actually offer, including yearly, twice yearly, every three months, once monthly, twice monthly, once weekly, twice weekly, every other day, once daily, twice daily and once hourly. If you are using a backup solution through your host, confirm their backup scheduling options can run to match how frequently your site is updated.
Another advantage of using a plugin is that you actually own your backup files and data. With a plugin like BackupBuddy, you can download your backup zip files to your computer or store them in a secure, off-site storage destination of your choosing. You don’t have to request a zip file from a service, wait on file delivery, or get stuck with an incomplete backup.
BackupBuddy also handles restoring your WordPress site if something goes wrong. A WordPress backup and restore feature is the second component of a complete WordPress backup solution. What good is a backup if you can’t do anything with it?
Last, BackupBuddy also allows you to move your WordPress site to a new host or domain. Owning your website files means not being locked into a poor web host. BackupBuddy’s WordPress migration feature makes it possible to easily change hosts, servers or your WordPress site’s domain name.

BackupBuddy supports several remote destinations, including WordPress backup to Dropbox and WordPress backup to Google Drive.

4. Set up Backup Schedules so backups run automatically.

The next important step is to make sure WordPress backup schedules are set up and running. Setting up these schedules means you don’t have to manually run backups; BackupBuddy will just handle your WordPress backups automatically for you.
Visit the BackupBuddy > Schedules page to configure your settings. From here, you can select backup intervals and where to deliver backups once they complete.

5. Enable Stash Live for real-time, cloud-based backups.

BackupBuddy 7.0 introduced a new cloud-based, real-time WordPress backup system. All BackupBuddy users get 1GB of free backup storage space, so enable Stash Live to take advantage of this redundant backup. One of the key features of Stash Live is how it makes realtime backups of changes as they happen. Stash Live also works well even if your host has limited your server resources.
From the BackupBuddy menu, visit the Stash Live page. Enter your iThemes username and password and Stash Live will go to work building a complete snapshot of your WordPress site.
