I just found out the e-commerce company I’m paying more than $100/month isn’t backing up my data, and that my transactions aren’t even secure (even though the sales rep told me otherwise before I signed up).

It’s not powered by WordPress, but since the issue is similar to that mentioned in the post, I figured I’d at least ask if you had any suggestions for how to back up the data and/or move it to a different host — one that would be secure and wouldn’t try to gouge me for services that I was originally promised were included within the package.

So, any suggestions? Feel free to contact me by email at the address entered into the comment form.

Yay – made it work. :-)

Almost put in a trailing slash in registration account URL – but didn’t thanks to the Ricards post.

Cheers Patrick. I’ve been agonizing over a better solution to my WordPress backup system (whch at the moment is me doing it manually!) There are plenty of for-pay services out there but none of them sound as secure as the free service you’re presenting here!

Yeah itâ€™s nice but has a couple of annoying elements:
- sends you an email notification every day after backup. I want to opt out of this
- you have to delete previous backups one by one if you donâ€™t want to go over the 50MB limit. I want to be able to select all, or most, of the previous backups and delete them in a batch.

Ahh – I’ve fixed this from the account manager screen (removed the slash) and now the backup has appeared in my account. Excellent!

Yep – installed it and now using it. When I opened the account I used a trailing slash in the registration account URL name and now get this error message:

Transmission: The blogurl you are sending this backup from does not match the one registered on this account. The blogurl you are using is ‘http://seogadget.co.uk’, and the specified user account is registered for blogurl ‘http://seogadget.co.uk/’.

Although the backup appears to complete successfully.

Superb stuff, installed it and got it up and running. I’ve been using manual backups so far but I keep forgetting to run them, and this seems a much better solution.
