We recommend that you back up your website every time you make a change. If you use MySQL then you should back up this too.  

Backing up your website is really quick and easy and completely free through your eXtend control panel.

Backing up your website files:

  • Log in to Your Account.
  • Click on ‘Manage Hosting’
  • Click on the Hosting Account that you wish to backup. This will open you eXtend control panel.
