Do you have backups?

At euHost, we understand the critical importance of data security, which is why we perform regular backups of hosting accounts. These backups are designed as a safeguard against severe problems such as server failures, data corruption, or other catastrophic events. However, it's important to note that these backups are primarily for emergency recovery purposes and are not typically intended for everyday access by our hosting users.

Why Self-Backups Make Sense

While our emergency backups provide a foundational layer of security, we strongly advocate for our users to take proactive steps in backing up their websites. Creating personal backups empowers you with immediate and independent access to your data. This practice is not only about having a recovery plan but also about having autonomy over your website's backups. By storing these backups in a separate cloud environment, you ensure that your data remains safe and accessible, irrespective of any issues that might affect your hosting service.

Using WPVivid Backup Plugin

To facilitate user-generated backups, we recommend the WPVivid Backup Plugin. This versatile tool simplifies the backup process, making it accessible even for those who are not technically inclined. With WPVivid, you can tailor your backup schedule to suit your needs—be it daily, weekly, or monthly. The plugin offers flexibility in what you choose to back up: whether it's specific files, databases, or the entire website. Additionally, WPVivid provides options for where to store these backups. You can choose from several cloud storage services such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or others, ensuring your backups are stored securely offsite.

Cloud Storage Options

Using cloud storage for your backups adds an extra layer of security and convenience. By storing backups in the cloud, you protect them from local hardware failures, physical damage, or theft. Cloud storage solutions typically offer robust security measures, ensuring that your data is encrypted and safe from unauthorized access. Furthermore, the ability to access these backups from anywhere at any time provides flexibility and peace of mind.

Restoring Made Easy

One of the key benefits of WPVivid is its straightforward restoration process. In the event that you need to restore your site, WPVivid enables you to do so quickly and without hassle. The restoration process involves just a few clicks, and the intuitive interface guides you through each step.
