HTL SafeBack – Backup & Restore
What it does

Back up in one click. Restore in one click.

Simple, safe backups. Back up with one click, restore with one click, and move your site to a new address.

One-click backup

Database, plugins, themes, media and other files — or only the parts you choose.

One-click restore

SafeBack first saves a safety copy of your site, so a restore can always be undone.

Automatic backups

Every day, week or month at the time you choose, plus extra database backups in between.

Back up before updates

Saves the database right before a plugin, a theme or WordPress itself is updated.

Move your site

Download a backup, upload it on another WordPress site and restore. Every link is updated to the new address.

Reminders and emails

Know when a backup finished or failed, when your newest backup is getting old, or when the server is low on space.

Careful by design

Built to be trusted

  • Does not connect to any outside service
  • Backups stay on your own server, in a protected folder
  • Works in small steps, so big sites and slow hosting do not time out
  • Keeps only the newest automatic backups to save space
  • Protect any backup so it is never deleted automatically
  • A simple activity history of everything it has done

Can I use it to move a site?

Yes. Download a backup, upload it on the new WordPress site and restore. Links are updated to the new address.

Is it free?
