Backup is always important for every website. Especially when your site hacked by someone or you accidentally lock yourself out, or when all data are erased.
Most of the WordPress users don’t make the backup of their website and they regret later when all are erased. The backup plugin helps you to save your website data in a reliable place.
Many WordPress backup plugins are available but very few of them allow for a complete backup. Full backup means backup of database and WP-Content folder. Choosing the right plugin is very difficult. Let’s check the top backup plugins.
Best WordPress Backup Plugins
Jetpack
Jetpack is a very famous and old plugin that gives many features like sitemap, social sharing, analytics, optimization, and the most important backup feature. It is available in both free and premium.
But the jetpack free version doesn’t give your special features like a backup option. It completely restores your blogs from a backup and also helps in website migration.
It is powered by Automattic which is behind WordPress. If you need a backup of multiple blog then I would recommend using another plugin because it is costly.
Updraft Plus
It is also the most popular WordPress backup plugin. Updraft plus gives all features which you would need to backup your WordPress. It is available in both free and premium. In premium, you get free 1gb of space for the updraft plus vault.
