I learned it the hard way that once you have a site up and running its better to keep a backup of the same locally in your machine. There are chances that the whole of the content might get erased!! You call it a server failure, no backup plan or anything, but the end result would be loosing all your content along with the conversations. In my quest to get a simpler and straight forward backup plan, I found this nice plugin for WordPress, called “WordPress Backup to Dropbox“. This plugin allows a direct, scheduled backup of the site to Dropbox. All one has to do is, schedule the time and frequency of backup and thats all, everything else is simply automated.
Hope that helps someone out there.
