In this guide, I\u2019ll provide some simple and easy options to export your WordPress sites for both non-technical and technical people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exporting your site creates a backup of your site, usually in the form of a .tar.gz or .zip file, which you can then use to restore or migrate your site to another domain or host. Once you have the backup it\u2019s an easy matter loading a blank WordPress site, loading the plugin, and then restoring the site from your backup file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#plugins\">Plugins for Exporting<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#do-it-yourself\">Export it Yourself<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#wordpress\">Exporting WordPress Sites<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"plugins\">Plugins to Export Your WordPress Sites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Plugins are the easiest option for some people, especially non-technical people, but other times are more complicated and may not always work smoothly. Here are the plugins that we recommend:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Total UpKeep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This plugin is easy to use for both backups and migrating your website and is our top recommendation. With the premium version included with all our hosting plans, it\u2019s an ideal choice for our customers. To learn more, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/total-upkeep\/\">Total Upkeep plugin<\/a> home page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">All-in-One Migration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This easy to use plugin exports all of your WordPress website attributes, including the database, media files, plugins, and themes. It\u2019s designed to migrate your site, but can be used to restore your site. It works best for smaller sites unless you get the premium version. You can find more information on the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/all-in-one-wp-migration\/\">All-in-one WP Migration plugin<\/a> at the WordPress plugins site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">JetPack<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>JetPack is packed with features, among which are backups. Although this feature is only available with the paid versions, it\u2019s a good choice if you already have JetPack. For more information, go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/jetpack.com\/\">Jetpack <\/a>homepage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">UpdraftPlus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This plugin is a very popular backup plugin and also has a migrator feature with the premium version. Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/updraftplus\/\">page free version of UpdraftPlus<\/a> for more information. If you\u2019re interested in using the migration feature, then go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/updraftplus.com\/shop\/updraftplus-premium\/\">UpdraftPlus Premium version page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"do-it-yourself\">Do It Yourself<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The do-it-yourself method to export your WordPress site is the most reliable method but does require more technical skill than using a plugin.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Export Site<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/server\/databases\/export-database-using-phpmyadmin\/\">Export your database.<\/a>\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compress your site\u2019s files.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to <strong>cPanel <\/strong>&gt;
