Backups

Create a backup manually

Before a big change (updating WordPress, switching PHP, editing code), save a backup in one click.

  1. Go to Hosting, click Manage hosting and open the Backups tab.
  2. Click Create a backup now.
  3. Wait for it to finish: it can take a few minutes depending on your site's size. You can leave the page; it keeps working.

The backup shows up in the list with its date and size. It includes your website files and your databases.

Only the latest backups are kept (the number is shown in the same tab): when you create a new one and you've reached the maximum, the oldest is deleted. If you want to keep one, download it.

Backups use your plan's space. If you're short on space, delete the ones you don't need with Delete.
