Choose where database backups go

WP Database Backup creates WordPress database backups. Backup For WP Cloudstorage adds a cloud destination for those files, giving you a place to shop a copy away from the site. Create a backup manually or set it to run on a repeating schedule.

You can also download backup files from the WordPress dashboard, save them as ZIP files on the local server, or send ZIP backups to a selected destination. Other available destinations include Dropbox, Google Drive, Amazon S3, FTP, sFTP, Backblaze, and email.

Manage backups in WordPress

Restore a database backup with one click. The plugin also includes a website migration capability intended to help move a website with one click. You can exclude selected database tables, search and replace content in a database backup file, and search or sort the backup list by date or database size.

Send backup files and reports to specified email addresses. These settings help administrators review backup history, control which tables are included, and retrieve files from the WordPress dashboard.

Set up cloud storage

Install and activate WP Database Backup in WordPress, then open its administration area to configure backup options. Choose manual backups or a repeating schedule, select destinations, and set any table exclusions or email reporting preferences. To use Backup For WP Cloudstorage, subscribe to the cloud storage option and select it as a destination for database backup files.

The cloud storage plan costs $1 per 50GB of storage per website per month on a pay-as-you-go basis. Capacity adjusts to the space your backups require. A 14-day free trial is available without an upfront cost.
