What is the importance of website backups?

Created by Admin Situs Desain, Modified on Tue, 8 Apr at 10:38 AM by Vivian Lim

Website backups are crucial for protecting your data and ensuring your site can be quickly restored if something goes wrong. Whether it’s due to hacking, server failure, human error, or a plugin conflict, websites are vulnerable to unexpected issues. Without a backup, you could lose all your content, files, and settings—potentially setting your business back days, weeks, or more.

A reliable backup system allows you to restore your site to a working state with minimal downtime and stress. This is especially important for e-commerce or content-heavy sites where even a short outage can result in lost revenue or trust. Backups should be done regularly (daily or weekly, depending on how often your site changes) and stored securely offsite or in the cloud.

In short, website backups are your safety net—they give you peace of mind and protection against disaster.
