A backup of a website is a copy of its content, which is kept on a different server and can be restored if something happens. This function is very efficient, since you can never know if a script update won't crash or if you will not delete something by accident - a file, a folder, a database entry, etc. If your website is backed up, it can be restored the way it was prior to when the problem appeared, so there shall not be any damage, or at least it shall be little, dependant upon the particular scenario. Keeping backups on your PC is not very feasible, as you would have to do it at least once per day and you can still lose information in case your last backup is not recent enough. In this light, you will need to rely on your hosting provider, so you must double-check their policy on the backups, since some companies create backups just once every week, which will do no good if something wrong happens with a website that's being used and updated constantly, such as an online store, for instance.

All files and databases hosted within a website hosting account on our cloud platform are duplicated regularly, so regardless what happens with your website, we shall have a backup of your content and we will be able to restore it in no time. We've surpassed what other providers may offer in this regard, because our system creates a backup not less than four times every day. If you would like any content to be restored, you should get hold of our technical support via a trouble ticket and they shall do what's important within the hour, restoring the content from the particular date you want. Alternatively, you can also check out the backups through your Hepsia CP. They will be listed in the File Manager section and sorted by date and time.

Daily Data Back-up in Semi-dedicated Hosting
All of our semi-dedicated packages offer regular content backups by default. This option will enable you to develop your websites and never having to worry if something can go wrong, simply because our system generates a new backup every few hours over a seven-day period, so a new backup doesn't overwrite an earlier one. Restoring the content is very simple and usually takes a few minutes - you may either use a support ticket and mention the particular date of the backup which you want to be restored, or you can just copy the backed-up files, as they will be available in read-only folders in the File Manager section of your web hosting Control Panel. Each individual backup folder contains the exact date and time it was created in its name, so you can swiftly locate and copy the content that you need, even if you do not have any prior experience with this kind of matters.
