WordPress Website
Backup Service
We provide a reliable backup & restore solution that ensures your website is always safeguarded. In fact, our WordPress website backup service is specifically designed to backup the WordPress content, data, and functionality of websites created using the WordPress platform. Operating from our Leeds engineering office, our UK team delivers automated, real-time and scheduled backups, off-site encrypted storage, and verified staging test-restores. Whether protecting an enterprise corporate portal or high-transaction WooCommerce store, we ensure your Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) are maintained with zero commercial disruption.
By choosing Dev-WP’s WordPress backup service, you gain more than just a backup & restore solution – you benefit from the expertise of our seasoned security professionals who understand the critical importance of safeguarding your website. Our WordPress website backup service includes regular, automated backups, ensuring that your site’s content, data, and configurations are consistently preserved without any manual effort on your part. Unlike basic hosting backups that run on the same physical server and frequently fail during server crashes, we store independent, encrypted archives in redundant off-site cloud vaults. Crucially, we don’t just generate backups – our engineers routinely spin them up in isolated staging environments to verify database integrity and guarantee that every restore point is 100% operational. In the event of an issue, our team is ready to perform a fast and seamless restoration, allowing you to get back to business with minimal downtime.
Built With The Best
Jonny and the team were fantastic in redeveloping our company's site. Communication was excellent and they were all helpful in ironing out any and all minor issues once the site was live. Would recommend.
From Cameron Low
The guys have been brilliant in migrating our website from our old platform EKM to Shopify, a move we were initially nervous about. But our new website design is not even comparable to our original (and very dated) site. Our customers are also really impressed with the functionality and the ease of the new website. We are now working on the SEO side of the business and have already seen some really positive results - hoping to see this continue.
From IMA Trading
5* service! I recently came to Dev-WP to design and develop our new YouthSCA website for our organisation. The team at Dev-WP are brilliant to say the least! Anything we needed in terms of site structure, content, features and usability were covered without question. When the website was handed over to us we were also given a full demo, explanation of each feature and how best to keep the site performing to its optimum. What I also really enjoyed about working with Dev-WP is that no question asked is considered a stupid one. They are always on hand to help and we're very pleased with the service we received overall. If you are looking for a reliable web developer that can do it all to a high level - look no further than Dev-WP
From Thomas William
Dev-WP recently helped the business I work for to develop a bespoke webpage to advertise training-related content and manage participant registrations. As our business hosts training for staff from different organisations and sectors across the UK, it was really important that the webpage was designed in the most user-friendly way possible to enable learners to understand the training requirements and easily book onto the sessions. Rob and his colleagues at Dev-WP were fantastic, building a webpage that offered all the functionalities we needed, as well as fitting in visually with the rest of our website. The team were on hand again when some changes needed to be made to the training dates and automated messages regarding remaining capacity on the courses. I will definitely be returning to Dev-WP for future webpage development work if and when we are able to expand our range of training offerings.

About Us
Why Invest In WordPress Website Backup Services?
A WordPress website backup service is a crucial component of maintaining a WordPress site's integrity and ensuring that your hard work and valuable content remain safe from potential issues. It provides peace of mind, knowing that you have a reliable backup plan in place to restore your website swiftly in case of any unexpected issues. Here are some key reasons to consider taking a full backup of WordPress sites through our service:
Losing your WordPress website content can be demoralising. With backups, you protect the hard work you've invested in your site. Having a backup service ensures that you can restore your website to a previous functioning state and prevent data loss. Whether caused by accidental page deletions, unvetted database scripts, or catastrophic hardware failure, our multi-generational archives ensure you never lose valuable editorial content, customer accounts, or custom code.
Hackers and malware attacks are prevalent threats online. If your website gets compromised, having a backup allows you to revert to a clean version of your site. Our team maintains a historical archive of clean, uninfected restore points. If your site is hit by malicious PHP injection, ransomware, or backdoor scripts, we quickly restore a pre-infection snapshot and patch the underlying vulnerability, preventing repeated breaches.
Accidental changes to code, configurations, or design elements can be rectified by reverting to a backup. As such, our WordPress backup service enables swift recovery, ensuring your site remains accessible to visitors and customers. With defined Recovery Time Objectives (RTO), our UK developers initiate rapid emergency restorations within minutes, minimising expensive downtime and protecting your brand reputation.
Sometimes, updates to WordPress core, themes, or plugins can lead to compatibility issues or site errors. If you have a backup, you can confidently experiment with updates, knowing you can easily restore if something goes wrong. We always generate an automated, instant restore snapshot immediately before applying any core, plugin, or PHP version update, ensuring you can roll back seamlessly if a third-party script collision occurs.
For e-commerce sites, any disruption can lead to loss of sales and customers. With regular backups, you can quickly recover and keep your online business running smoothly. We deploy real-time, event-triggered backups for WooCommerce stores. Every customer order, inventory change, and cart transaction is backed up instantaneously, ensuring you never lose customer purchase records or financial audit data even during peak trading periods.
Depending on your website's purpose, you may have legal or compliance obligations to maintain data and user information. Backups ensure you can adhere to these requirements at all times. Our backup processes comply fully with UK GDPR, Data Protection Act 2018, and ISO security standards, offering encrypted off-site storage, customizable data retention periods (30 to 90 days), and immutable audit logs for regulatory accountability.
