WordPress Backup in Edinburgh
Backup arrangements for Edinburgh WordPress sites, where a site is two things that must be captured together. The database holds posts, settings and users; the file system holds uploads, themes and plugins — and a backup of one without a matching copy of the other restores a site full of missing images or content that references files that are not there.
Why this comes up
The problem
The database is backed up nightly, the uploads directory is not, and a restore would produce a site with no images.
What you get
What we deliver
- Database and files backed up together, consistent with one another
- Copies stored away from the server, since a host failure takes both otherwise
- Retention set so a compromise discovered late still has a clean copy available
- Restores tested by performing one rather than assuming the backup works
- Frequency matched to how often content changes and what losing a day would cost
- The restore process documented, so it can be followed under pressure

WordPress Backup in Edinburgh — common questions
- Why must both be captured together?
- Because they reference each other. The database records which image belongs to a post and the file system holds the image, so restoring a database from Tuesday alongside files from Sunday produces content pointing at uploads that do not yet exist.
- Do backups need to be off the server?
- Yes. A backup stored on the same host is lost with it, and it is also reachable by anyone who compromises the site — so an off-site copy protects against both the hosting failure and the attacker who would otherwise delete it.
- How far back should retention go?
- Far enough to predate a problem you discover late. A compromise or a corruption noticed after three weeks needs a copy older than that, and seven days of retention means the only available backups already contain whatever went wrong.
- How do we know a backup works?
- By restoring one, into a separate environment, at least occasionally. Backup jobs report that they ran rather than that they produced something usable, and the difference is discovered either during a planned test or during an emergency.
- Do you work with businesses across City of Edinburgh?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Edinburgh and the surrounding City of Edinburgh area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Edinburgh businesses do you usually work with?
- Financial services and data-led work, plus seasonal systems that have to absorb enormous August load without falling over. Beyond that we work across Financial Services, Technology, Tourism, Higher Education and Data Science.
- Do you cover the areas around Edinburgh?
- Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Glasgow. Edinburgh is an urban area of roughly 540,000+, and we take on work across the wider City of Edinburgh region rather than the city boundary alone.
