Backup Your Site

July 1st, 2008 by ryan Leave a reply »

So last night I was restructuring my hosting infrastructure (read: moving folders around) and managed to delete the folder that hosts most of my sites.  I got that nasty sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach.  I was able to get things back up, but my hosting provider, which is normally pretty responsive and helpful, took FOREVER to respond to my restore request. 

Immediately after that I set up a scheduled job on my home machine to pull down a rar of the site each night.  It’s hard to get good help these days.
