Website backup

The role of websites in today’s businesses is growing with each day: more and more customers search for information about products by browsing the Web, more and more companies create special departments to promote and sell their services in the Internet. By making regular website backups an organization can always feel safe that its data will not be lost due to competitor’s virus attack or server failure.

About website backup

There are two main approaches to web site backup: external, when a software acts as an "exterior visitor" browsing the site, and internal, when you have access to the site’s contents and just copy them, e.g. through FTP protocol. The first one suggests building website’s map through visiting all links, and then copying all text and images as they are given by the web server. This method doesn’t provide much accuracy, and cannot be used to restore the site if it fails. The second approach allows you to back up the whole website without exceptions and always be able to restore it intact in case of a disaster.

Handy Backup is an easy-to-use website backup software for Windows computers. It has an integrated FTP-client which can be used in both ways: to store backup to FTP and to back up data from remote locations (i.e. backup from FTP). Since most companies access their websites through FTP, Handy Backup appears to be a perfect solution for website backup.

Back up web-sites with Handy Backup

Backing up your website allows minimizing the risk of data loss in case of a disaster and reducing downtime of your server to the minimum. Time is money – the less your site is unavailable, the less expenditures it causes. Furthermore, restoring a backup of your website to a different location is a very convenient way to make a clone of it (of course, the destination web server must have similar configuration).

Website backup with Handy Backup brings with it the following advantages:

• Continuity of your business. In case of a disaster, your website will be up and running in less than an hour as you will be able to quickly restore the data to a new server.
• Reliable backup of any website data. Handy Backup can create a reserve copy of the entire site including all content, graphics and other data, or perform a selective backup. File-mask backup filtering allows you to back up data of selected type only: e.g. all HTML files, all PNG pictures, etc.
• Automated backup on a schedule. To securely protect your website data, it is enough to assign a backup schedule once and the program will take care of the rest.
• Minimal efforts to back up and restore. With Handy Backup you will be able to back up your entire website with just a few mouse clicks, which is a 5 minute job. The restore procedure will take even less.
• Wide choice of backup storage media including CD, DVD, HD-DVD, Blu-ray, FTP, LAN or Novosoft Remote Backup Service.

Besides websites, many companies also exploit database management systems to store customer data and coordinate business activities. Handy Backup features an advanced Database backup plug-in which provides an easy and reliable way to back up DB management systems. Learn more about database backup…
