Backup your files, pictures, videos and for the love of god your wordpress blog
Backup your wordpress blog with this tool from Austin Matzko!
You’re feeling pretty confident about your web host and your website, it hasn’t had any issues in quite some time so I don’t need to back up right now.
Bad move Joe or Jane!
Backup right this second if you haven’t done it this month because that “too confident” feeling you’re having right now means that something bad is about to happen to your beloved family photos or your blog.
I am speaking from experience when I say that it can cost somewhere around $1253.87 to get your data back from OnTrack and you will feel extremely sick writing out that check.
You know those checks that you write out because of your own stupidity? Those checks hurt the worst because it could’ve been prevented and that’s what makes you shake your head so much.
Backing up everything you have is the key to success not only at work and personally but with your wife. I told my story to a co-worker and then he shocked me with his story!
He said that he lost six years worth of photos of their kids and even OnTrack couldn’t get them off. It still cost him money to find out if they could be recovered and when you write out that “not small” check only to find out that you’re going to get back nothing in return, that also sucks.
SOOOOOOOO
Where are your files right now?
Where are your pictures?
Where are your videos?
If they are on anything that could crash or break down and you only have one copy of, you should be very worried and afraid. For WordPress blogs, backup using the plug-in above. For files, my recommendation is to backup all of your sensitive data with DropBox.
