Like the majority of IMer’s, most of my websites are hosted on servers with cPanel installed… so it’s fairly “easy” for me to make a backup of each site. You login to cPanel, click a few buttons, and then wait, rinse and repeat for each site you have.
Now while the “manual” option exists and is easy… it certainly is NOT convenient. With most people, the thought of sitting there and pressing buttons for a few hours every week… well, you know what happens – absolutely NOTHING! And if you’ve got more than 10 sites…. there are always “better” things you think you could be doing with your time
Cos while you just KNOW you should be doing it… the reality is that actually doing backups is boring!
Well now… there’s absolutely NO EXCUSE for not doing it!
Backing up your cPanel websites is now so simple and convenient with a new desktop app for Windows (XP+) AND Intel Mac OSX (10.4+) from an Aussie programmer based in Queensland.Aaron Dwyer has developed Backup Smart using the cross-platform technology of Adobe Air (which means it can run on BOTH Windows and Mac machines).
I’ve written a comprehensive cPanel Backup Software Review which outlines some of the web server “problems” I’ve had over the years, which I was able to quickly recover from because I DID have backups.
Unfortunately for me… I did them all the hard, boring, manual way.
Now with Aaron’s Backup Smart Software you can do it the easy way!
And @ just $37, it’s a very reasonably priced piece of software! There’s even a fully functioning 7 day free trial if you want to check it out first!
So go get it… NOW! You’ve got absolutely NO excuses not to backup your websites now
Cheers
