Best Free WordPress Backup Plugins 2021

updraftplus one of the best backup plugin i use almost 4 years

how to manually backup full wordpress site on a vps like vultr, linode etc.

Great video. I am using WPVivid at the moment and has some great features, but on a larger site i hit problems like you with it failing/timing out on a shared server with 4gb Ram and 4 cpus (Namehero). I couldn't get the restore to work and spent 2weeks with their support guys changing config settings, disabling modsecurity rules, not restoring plusaddons/ithemes to finally get a restore done...but it still took 1 hour to restore. Thank goodness I had secondary backup (Jetbackup) in cpanel which took 5mins to restore site or I would have been in trouble....I hope WPvivid solve these issues as a solid backup/restore tool is essential....especially if it's a customer site....

Excellent WordPress tips!

1. to restore from BackupGuard do you just choose "import"? (ahh i see under actions there's a RESTORE icon - so what's import for? a remote file on your C: drive etc)
2. how do you do a restore? (i guess it depends on files-only, database-only or both) - with a restore, do you have to go into MySQL or MariaDB and drop all the tables? - it's unclear to me, or do you have to delete your whole wordpress, install a clean wordpress, then import over the top of an empty/blank WP
3. kinda wish there were demos showing this!

Another great video! Hey Alex any chance you could do a video showing how to redirect domain if I want to use Cloudways and Cloudflare, but want to use Hostinger to host my emails?

WPvivid does not support PHP 8. What about the others?

Hi, what email can I send you a business offer?

I still use all in one WP migration and manually back up my site. I have tried updraft but when I needed to restore a site it failed me and wouldn't load it. All in one has never failed me. At some point I will try vivid and backup guard.
