I own a WP blog and had a few questions about backups. My blog receives good traffic, publishes a fair amount of text and image-rich content every day and is hosted on a Linode VPS.
Currently, I have the database backups emailed to me every day via a plugin, and have a script set up that backs up / syncs all the files and data to Amazon S3 every 2 hours. All this has been set up by a tech guy I hired. I ain't good with coding and all. :)
I have been trying to find the perfect tool that can download files from the server via SFTP to my desktop, and do an automatic sync every day or so. That way, I'd also have an offsite backup. I haven't been able to find the right tool so far. Could you help?
Also, I'd love your tips and suggestions on creating a fool-proof blog backup system. Thanks.
