Website Backup
Keep your current host. We keep a safe, tested copy of your website somewhere else.
Most hosting companies say they take backups, but they keep them on their own systems, and nobody checks that they can be restored. If the host has a bad day, the site is hacked or an update goes wrong, those backups can go with it. We take our own daily copy of your website, keep it away from your host, and prove that it restores.
From €10 a month excl. VAT
Month to month, no contract
What you get
- A daily copy of your website files and database
- Kept away from your host, so one failure cannot take out both
- A test restore every quarter, so we know the backup works
- An alert to an engineer if a backup fails
- A restore by an engineer when you need one
No lock-in: cancel any month and we hand you the latest backup.
Who it suits
- Happy with your host: Your site works and you do not want to move it, but you are not sure the backups would save you.
- WordPress and WooCommerce: Sites where a bad plugin update or a hack can break everything in a minute.
- Sites that change every day: Shops, booking sites and blogs, where losing a week of orders or posts would hurt.
What we back up
- Files: Your theme, plugins, uploaded images and documents, and the site configuration.
- Database: Pages, posts, products, orders, bookings and customer accounts.
- History: Daily copies going back weeks, so a problem noticed late can still be undone.
How it works
- Free check
Run the free website check or send us your address, and we confirm we can back the site up.
- Access
A backup-only login: SFTP, or a WordPress plugin connection. We never need your hosting password.
- First backup
We take the first copy and restore it on a test server to prove it works.
- Every day after
A new copy each day, a test restore each quarter, and an alert to us if anything fails.
Common questions
- What does it cost?
- €10 a month excluding VAT for a typical small business website. Very large sites and web applications are quoted first.
- Do I have to move my hosting?
- No. That is the point of this service: your site stays where it is, and we keep the safe copy.
- Which websites can you back up?
- WordPress, WooCommerce and most PHP, Node.js or static sites where we can connect by SFTP or a WordPress plugin. Wix, Squarespace and Shopify manage their own copies and do not allow a full outside backup.
- What happens if my site is hacked or breaks?
- We restore a copy from before the problem. If the site needs cleaning up or fixing first, we quote a fixed price before doing the work.
- Can you host it as well?
- Yes. Managed hosting from €25 a month includes daily backups, and moving a standard website to us is free.
