Why am I buying this?

One my favorite webhosts has been losing entire websites. To protect the guilty party, I won’t provide names yet. Shockingly they keep no backup. Maybe they don’t want to keep me, but I’ll deal with that later. They did offer to give me 1 month of free hosting. Fortunately, only my nonsignificant websites were harmed.

Anyway… I should have established a better backup system. With SiteVault, backups will happen daily, and I’ll receive emails confirmations to prove it.

Tip

If you decide to buy SiteVault, make sure you are clearly identify the directories that should be grabbed. Appartently SiteVault won’t download all folders in a directory unless you say which ones you want.

Summary:

I purchased SiteVault backup software. SiteVault is a website Backup FTP & MySQL backup tool. It backs up your entire ftp directory and the mysql databases you specify. And do I really have to explain how backing up your website is related to financial success ?

Need another reason to backup and upgrade your software ?

Our friends at Build and Succeed got hacked. That small screenshot is what Build and Succeed looked like when it got hacked. I am not gloryfing the crackers ( evil hackers) and I am not linking to the hacked website. Consider yourself warned… Make sure you have backup.
