Beginner's Guide to Backup Solutions Comparison

An introductory guide comparing backup solutions for websites, databases, and email.

Backups protect your website, email, and databases from accidental deletions, hacks, or server failures. A beginner-friendly backup strategy doesn't need to be complex to be effective.

Types of backup solutions

  • Control-panel backups built into cpanel hosting.
  • Off-site backups to cloud storage providers.
  • Application-level backups for CMSs like WordPress or Magento.

When comparing backup options, look at frequency, retention period, restore speed, and whether backups include both files and databases. With iServerGo you can combine daily server backups with application-level tools on hong kong hosting, us web hosting, or eu web hosting.
