Ok, so you guys are all photographers and know how important it is to backup your images. Well the same goes for your blog. I’m making this a general reminder to everyone to make sure and backup your database at least once a week. I had a client today e-mailing me frantically because she deleted 3 months worth of posts by accident. There were NO backups made of them. Luckily, I had her blog on my reader so I was able to send them to her one by one, but she will have to manually rebuild her posts. *sigh* So sad…
So don’t let that happen to you! The easiest way to backup your database is to install the WP DB-Backup Plugin. You can specify how often to do the backup. It will run the backup, and you can have it either e-mail you, save it on your server, or download it to your computer.
