Backups & Monitoring
Backups you can restore. Monitoring that wakes someone up.
The two unglamorous services that decide whether a bad day costs you an hour or a business.
Backups
Daily encrypted offsite backups
Hacks, botched updates, accidental deletions — every disaster ends the same way: restore from a good backup. So we make sure one always exists.
Daily, files + database
The whole site — uploads, themes, plugins and the database — captured every day, not just the parts a plugin remembers to grab.
Encrypted & offsite
Backups are encrypted and stored away from the server that runs your site. If the server has a very bad day, your backups don't share it.
Restores actually tested
A backup nobody has ever restored is a hope, not a plan. We restore from our own backups routinely — before updates and on request.
Downtime Monitoring
Know your site is down before your customers do
Uptime monitoring is only useful if a failed check reaches someone who can fix the problem. On a managed plan, it does.
Watched around the clock
Automated checks around the clock confirm your site is up and responding — not just pinging, but actually serving pages.
Humans get the alert
When a check fails, it pages us — the people who can actually fix it — not an inbox you read on Monday.
Downtime measured in minutes
Most incidents on managed sites are resolved before the owner notices. That's the point of monitoring: you find out from us, not from a customer.
