A backup of a website is a copy of its content, that is kept on a different hosting server and can be restored if something happens. This option is rather useful, since you cannot know if a script update won't crash or if you won't erase something accidentally - a file, a folder, a database entry, etc. If your website is backed up, it could be restored the way it was before the issue appeared, so there will not be any damage, or at least it will be very little, based on the particular case. Keeping backups on your PC isn't very feasible, because you'd have to do it at least once daily and you can still lose data if your last backup is not recent enough. In this light, you'll need to rely on your web hosting company, so you have to double-check their policy on the backups, because some companies create backups once per week, that will do no good if something goes wrong with an Internet site that is being used and updated constantly, such as an online store, for example.
Daily Data Back-up in Cloud Website Hosting
We fully understand how critical it is to have an up-to-date copy of your Internet site, so we keep a backup of all of the files and databases in every cloud website hosting account. We have gone further than the vast majority of web hosting providers out there, because we create full backups a minimum of four times every day. Thus, in case an issue occurs on your website and you want a backup to be restored, the Internet site will look the way it did only a few hours earlier. The content could be restored by our tech support or, if you prefer, you can do it yourself. The available backups will be listed in the File Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel in whichyou could see the time and date they were produced. You can easily copy the content from there to your domain folder and the restored Internet site shall be live instantly. Otherwise, if you're not sure what to do, you can get in touch with our qualified professionals and they shall restore the content from the date you want inside just an hour.
Daily Data Back-up in Semi-dedicated Servers
All our semi-dedicated servers provide daily content backups by default. This option will permit you to work on your websites and never having to worry if something could go wrong, simply because our system produces a new backup every few hours over a seven-day period, so a new backup does not overwrite an earlier one. Restoring the content is quite simple and takes a few minutes - you could use a support ticket and mention the time frame of the backup you want to be restored, or you could just copy the backed-up files, because they will be available in read-only folders within the File Manager section of your website hosting CP. Each individual backup folder contains the exact time and date it was created in its name, so you could instantly locate and copy the content that you need, even in case you do not have any previous experience with such matters.
