  4. Website and Web Hosting • A website is a collection of related web pages and content that is located under, as well as identified by, a single domain. It is hosted on a particular web server. • Every website is hosted on a particular server of a web hosting company. A web hosting company provides the server space, technology and services which are needed to make a website accessible to everyone via the Internet. • These web hosts offer many hosting plans depending on the type of server or the type of operating system that is being used. For example, when we talk about “Linux Dedicated Server Hosting” it refers to a hosting plan meant for Linux operating system and for a dedicated server type. Similarly, when we use the term “Best Windows Reseller Hosting Company” it refers to a web host that is providing reseller type of hosting plan for Windows operating system.

  5. Need for Website Backup • There are many reasons why website backups are essential for your website. The following slides will shed light upon the reasons that highlight the importance of website backups.

  6. Prevents Data Loss Having a full backup of your site ensures that your data remains safe and unaffected if any untoward incidence occurs to harm your website. It is recommendable to have multiple backups and to avoid storing all of those at the same location.

  7. Acts as a Safety Net in case of Errors In case you make an error on your site, the best way to fix it is by restoring a previous backup. A backup that is recent enough will ensure that you don’t lose any important data and you can have your site up and running in no time. To be the most effective, these backups should be created very frequently.

  8. Averts Compatibility Issues after New Installations Themes and plugins are an important feature of any content management system (CMS) such as WordPress. When a new add-on is introduced, it might not necessarily be compatible with the site’s existing system. Hence, it is advisable to back up your website before activating any new theme or plugin. This provides the safety where you can go back to a previous backup if your site encounters any compatibility issues.

  9. Effective option when dealing with Malware Many websites are either affected by malware or vulnerable to it. Having a backup of your site will help you to get your website clean faster without stressing over losing any critical data.

  10. Makes Web Hosting Migration Convenient When you are moving from one web hosting service provider to another, you will have to move all of your site’s files from one server to another. Keeping your site’s backup ready ensures that you can migrate your website quickly and more easily. Backups can be used in many ways to migrate your website which involve copying files manually, using dedicated tools for it or even asking your new web host to do it for you.

  12. Helps to Create Easily a Testing Version of Your Website Any important change to your site should be tested first using a testing environment. This testing environment is a clone of your live website and is called a staging site. This ensures that your website remains unaffected if anything goes wrong during or after the update. A staging site can be created very swiftly if you have a recent backup of your site.

  13. A Protective Measure against Hackers In the unfortunate event when your website has been hacked, having a backup ensures a quick resolution of the situation. By restoring a backup, credentials can be updated with the resumption of normal service.

  14. Conclusion “A stitch in time saves nine”. This proverb is apt in the context of website backup. It is an essential measure to keep your website’s data safe in case anything goes wrong with your website.
