The Importance of Website Backup!
Posted September 2nd, 2010
Many new webmasters don’t care to take backup of their websites regularly. In fact Backup is one of the most important factors for any online business. No matter how good your web host is or how strong your servers are, you must take regular backups.
Do not collect backups and copies of backups without verifying integrity. Many webmaster failed to restore their website at time of trouble just because they have not verified their backups. Many times backups go corrupt because of variable reasons. The best practice is to verify backups regularly.
Maintain three backup copies
1- daily
2- weekly
3- Monthly
This will save you from disaster. Believe me there are many big companies that went out of online business just because they did not care to take regular backups and they have left no choice but to leave internet business or these companies were unable to bear the huge loss.
DrawBacks of not taking Backup of your website.
1-You may totally go out of business.
2-You may lose seo ranking, Because you will not be able to restore indexed pages by search engine which will result in 404.
3- Your company may lose credibility.
Stay away from irresponsible behavior, Always have backups and backup of backups
Good Luck!
