I will never forget that day when my blog was got hacked due to very ordinary password. Unfortunately at that time i was not aware of WordPress backup and i had to start from zero.

I didn’t back up my data to my second website and lost everything, never doing that mistake again.

I had bad experience too with my blog posts several months ago, and the worst was I didn’t use to make a back-up file for my data, so all my data disappeared lol. Now I’m really afraid if that problem will happen again, I have installed the back-up plugin to save all my files.

WP Database Backup is a great solution to keep your WP database backed up. We developed our own WP Backup Plugin a couple months ago that automatically backs up both our WP files and WP database to Amazon S3 – which is great because I always forgot to manually back up.

We built this because we lost an entire blog because our web host said they were backing everything up – and they weren’t. Luckily we were able to restore 4 of our blogs from these backups after they got hacked a couple weeks ago.

When in doubt – always be backed up!

Thank you for the plugin recommendation, Alex.

I might try it out, I’m doing it manually with the export feature at the moment.

Take care,

Paul.

I used to use WordPress Database Backup plugin as well, but then switched to WP-DBManager recently. It’s much better and even has a restore feature which rocks.

Thanks for the remainder, even though we have setup a script or tools to do automatic backup for us, we still have to check the script occasionally to see if it still runs smoothly.
