It is a good practice to backup your site. You can backup your site with cron. If you are using wordpress you can also use different plugins for backup. If your site is hacked or you have made some changes that broke your site you can restore your site with backup files.

Great advice if you are having sites outside WA or not on Wordpress. Actually this is true for any work on any software program you do. Always have backups!

Hi there
If you go to your back office and click on SiteRubix
then click on SiteManager
You will see that WA backs up our sites on a daily basis.
I know its good practice to do this ourselves as well
There is an option to do this in wordpress
Cheers..PB

Hi Phil, of course it is there! I see it every time I log in.
Thank you :)

Hi, I am using Wordpress. I thought our sites were already backed up. I have been with WA for 5wks, I'm very new. For Wordpress which plugin would I use?
I have no clue about these things and don't want anything happening after all the work I have done so far.
Thank you :)

You can use cron. Also you can manually backup by downloading database and all the files from time to time. If you want to backup using wordpress there are several options like UpdraftPlus, BackWPUp etc.

I don't understand backing up downloading database.
As long as we have the one here it's fine with me :)

if you're hosting with WA then your site is backed up by WA, but you can also backup using plugins

That is very true. I got burnt a couple of times until I learned to do that.

good to that you have started backing up
