What a backup contains

Exactly what is in each copy, and what is not.

A site's list of daily backups with their dates and sizes
  1. The site's files

    Over SSH, the whole site folder you named is archived. With the plugin, the WordPress installation is archived, minus any wp-content folders you excluded.

  2. A database export

    Each backup includes a database export: over SSH through WP-CLI, with the plugin through its own export. Each backup records whether its database export is included.

  3. One archive per backup

    The copy is stored as a single compressed archive, which is also what you get when you download it.

  4. What is not included

    Anything outside the site folder, such as email accounts, DNS records or other sites on the same hosting account, is not part of the backup.

Included with Zinn Digital® hosting

Host the site with us and backups are part of the plan

Sites on Zinn Digital® WordPress hosting are backed up by the hosting plan itself, with malware scanning and a firewall included, so there is no separate backup bill. This product is for the sites you keep somewhere else.
