Check what is covered
Our listed web and WordPress plans include daily backups. For managed cloud, review the included cover and any optional Pro service in the builder.
Website backups
A way back, when the next change goes wrong.
Daily backups are included with our listed web and WordPress plans. Understand the coverage and recovery process before you need them.
The practical picture
Recovery starts before the problem.
A website backup is a saved recovery copy of the covered files and data. The schedule, retention and restore options depend on the hosting service and any backup options selected.
Keep changing data in mind
Restoring a database can replace newer orders, enquiries or content. Review what changed after the recovery point before restoring a live business website.
Test your recovery route
Know where to find backups and who can approve a restore. Keep separate copies of information your business needs to retain independently.
The details that matter
A backup is useful when you can recover.
Check the contents
Confirm whether the arrangement covers website files, databases and uploads. Email and information held in external business tools may need separate protection.
Match frequency to the business
An online shop changes more often than a brochure site. Consider how much recent work could be lost between copies and how newer records would be recovered.
Understand retention
Ask how long copies remain available and how many recovery points are kept. Do not assume that every hosting product or optional backup service uses the same arrangement.
Test restoration safely
A recovery exercise in a suitable test environment checks more than a backup status label. Verify the restored pages and important actions, and keep the procedure accessible.
Made for the working day
Choose backup cover around the business.
A brochure website, a busy shop and business email can have different recovery needs. Ask how often data changes, how much you could afford to recreate and how quickly the service needs to return. Cloud backup options and VPS snapshots have their own scope and costs. We can help you work through those choices before ordering.
Talk through your requirements
A little clarity
Website backups, explained.
Useful answers before you decide. For anything specific to your website, let’s talk it through.
Are VPS snapshots included?
The VPS builder offers snapshots as a separate option. Review the schedule and price, and keep an application-level recovery plan where appropriate.
Can I restore just part of a website?
Restore options depend on the service and available backup tools. Check the relevant files, database and recovery point before proceeding.
Will a restore preserve new orders?
A restore can replace data created after the backup. For shops and other changing systems, agree how newer information will be retained before restoring.
