How Often Should You Back Up Your Website? Print

  • 0

The frequency of backups can make the difference between a minor inconvenience and a major disaster. At Cloud Zanzibar, we guide users to set up a backup schedule that matches their website’s activity and risk level.

1. Daily Backups

For websites that update frequently — such as blogs, news sites, or e-commerce stores — daily backups are essential. Cloud Zanzibar allows you to automate daily backups, ensuring that you never lose critical content.

2. Weekly Backups

Smaller websites or portfolios with minimal content updates can often rely on weekly backups. This reduces storage use while still providing protection against data loss.

3. Real-Time or Continuous Backups

Websites with high traffic or frequently updated databases benefit from real-time backups. Cloud Zanzibar can capture every change as it happens, ensuring zero data loss even during busy periods.

4. Monthly Backups

Monthly backups can serve as a long-term archive of your website. These are useful for historical reference or in case you need to restore an older version.

Quick Tip:

A layered backup strategy — combining daily, weekly, and real-time backups — offers the best protection. With Cloud Zanzibar, you can schedule, automate, and manage all backups directly from your hosting dashboard.

Never wait for a crash to regret not having a backup.
