wordpress Backup Your Wordpress before too late

I will explain How to Backup WordPress Database include posts content, pages, comments, custom fields, categories, and tags, trackback and feed readers. Backup is a compulsory routine activities performed by an administrator. The objective is to prevent data loss if something unexpected happens.

For example server hosting where you get hacked, natural disasters, you accidentally delete a database, there is a bug in the software database damage, and so forth.

You own blog with wordpress software is also obliged to perform regular backups. Do not let your post numbering tens and even hundreds of disappeared.

WordPress itself provides facilities for data backup through export menu. To make export in wordpress how to click the Tools menu > and select Export > then click the Download Export Files.

When you click the button wordpress will automatically generate a file in XML format that contains posts, pages, comments, custom fields, categories, and tags from your blog.

If the XML file you downloaded earlier success means you’ve managed to do backups. Both self-hosted wordpress.com wordpress and how to do the same backups.

To restore data using import menu, how to click the Tools menu > Import > select WordPress then upload this backup file. If you notice, this import menu you can also import from other blog services like Blogger, blogware, livejournal, etc.

If you are not satisfied with the export-import facility provided by wordpress, you can add a variety of plugins created to facilitate the backup activity. You can download it here

Also for self-hosted wordpress you can also backup the entire database via phpMyAdmin wordpress, this means a database known as dumping.

Any way you use, make sure you do regular backups. Remember the saying goes umbrella ready before the rain. Just backup your data before it’s too late.
