Backup Best Practices for Hosting Customers
Backups are your last line of defence against ransomware, bad updates, and accidental deletions.
Follow the 3-2-1 rule
Keep three copies of data, on two different media types, with one copy off-server. Shared hosting includes automatic daily backups; VPS customers should configure snapshots plus remote copies.
Test restores
A backup you have never restored is only theoretical. Quarterly restore drills confirm your recovery process works.
Before major changes
Take a manual backup or snapshot before plugin updates, theme changes, and server migrations. Capnis makes restores available from your control panel or client area.
