At polar55, you get a web hosting service with free backup. This means that you can always restore your website or database if something goes wrong. One of the major concerns for website owners is the risk of being hit by a hacker attack. In case of such an unfortunate event, it’s reassuring to have access to a backup of your website. You might also encounter issues with an update in your CMS system. Instead of dealing with the problem, it can sometimes be convenient to restore your website with just a few clicks and work on a solution without your website being unavailable.
We place great importance on the security of your data. Therefore, all data is backed up every night. Backup is stored for 14 days at a remote location in an EU country. Daily snapshots are taken here, which are stored individually for 14 days. Additionally, backups are mirrored to a third location in another EU country, where the backup is stored for 3 months. These two remote locations are separate, meaning there is no connection between location A and B. The latest 3 days of backup are also stored locally in case the connection to the remote backup is down. In other words – you are very well covered in terms of backup, and you always have access to restore from it yourself!
Providers differ significantly, and with some, your subscription cost increases if you want to access a backup of your website. At polar55, we believe this feature is so vital that we offer our web hosting service with free backup. You can sleep peacefully at night knowing that the security around your website is intact. However, it’s still advisable to stay vigilant. It’s always a good idea to keep an eye on your website regularly, preferably at least once a week. A website backup is only available for a specific period before it gets deleted.
We use Jetbackup as our backup solution, providing several options. You can choose to create a full website backup, file backup, database backup, or even an email backup. Moreover, you can select specific files or databases you want to back up. If you have multiple sites running on your web hosting account, you can opt to back up only one of them.
Therefore, our recommendation is to remember to choose a web hosting service with free backup. If it’s not us, make sure that your prospective provider offers this as part of their standard product.
