Backup WordPress Sites

18 replies
I'm trying to find the best way to backup my WordPress sites without spending too much money.

I've heard of:
1) CodeGuard
2) BackupBuddy
3) WPupdate

What do you guys use that is reliable and if not free, worth the money?

Thanks

    Duplicator works great for me, it's free.

    There's one called BackWPup too (or something along those lines), used it previously and it worked very well.

    Hello, If you are looking for free then use updraftplus backu plugin. If you want to use premium one go with BackupBuddy. Thanks :-)

    Duplicator is great, if you have a lot of site and want scheduled backups etc, upgrade to Pro version.

    A lot of hosting companies are offering "Daily Off-Server Backups."

    And Server-Rewind.

    I'm currently using ManageWP to manage all my website for free and it includes backups for free as well. Highly recommended.

    There is plenty of plugins on wordpress that are free and allow backup directly to dropbox. I would just type backup in plugins search area.

    There are so many free plugins but if you want extra features then you gonna update to pro version. But free will work too.

    If you want to chnage the hosting and domain name too then most of the free plugins need to be upgraded. Thanks :-)

    Just back it up in Cpanel. You can also set things up when you install WP so it automatically backs up.

    It depends what do you want to backup. Database? Files? Themes & Plugins?

    The best solution in my opinion is All in One Migration plugin. It's free and let you backup everything.

    It will be up to you to do research, hear feedback from past customers and decided which is the best choice for you.
