Don't risk anything less with your backups
Your WordPress backups are worth your entire website investment. When something goes wrong with an upgrade, your server crashes or your hosting company goes bust, you lose everything without good backups. The day can come when you get hacked. With only a few thousand downloads, mixed feedback or no professional support, can you entrust all your hard work to a backup plugin?

Trust us it is difficult to write a reliable backup plugin that works reliably across the vast array of WordPress deployments.

UpdraftPlus runs. We'll keep your backups protected.

Why do you have to backup your website?
Like any CMS, WordPress can be vulnerable to stuff like server crashes, hacking, security bugs, poor plugins or theme changes, and unreliable hosts on the network. If something were to happen to your website, time, money and credibility would cost you dearly.

Although other security measures are essential, backups are the ultimate insurance: they ensure that your website (plus all relevant files and databases) stays secure and can be restored in no time if the worst were to happen.

You can always make your own manual backups, but it is infinitely easier, simpler and safer to use a backup plugin. Life is sufficiently busy! You can easily set and forget" with UpdraftPlus, scheduling automated backups to save you time, effort and hassle.
