Edit 12:55pm MST; By the way, the deadline has arrived!

Wow! I spent the entire morning backing up all of my websites. This includes uploaded themes and the sql’s, not only for myself but also for my hostees! That was exhausting! I’m glad it’s done though, I hadn’t backed up anything in over a week. I’m the type that backs up daily! Yes, daily! Before I head to bed each night, I backup my sql’s because in the past, I had experiences where I went to bed with a functioning site and woke up to an entire site having been deleted! It wouldn’t have been so bad if I had a more recent backup of my site, unfortunately at the time, I hadn’t backed up in weeks! I never want to see anything like that happen again, so I’ve made it a habit of backing things up daily. Well, until this past week!

To those of you that I host - Jess, Debbie and Lori, I would like you ladies to do backups of your sites as often as possible. I recommend every couple of days but at the very least, weekly! Since none of you have access to my control panel and I’m the only one who can do backups from phpmyadmin, you all will need to go to “Manage”, then “Export” in your wordpress dashboards. This will give you a backup in xml format! I’m going to try and remember to do backups of your sites each week but in the event I forget, it’d be wise to be doing your own! I don’t expect any downtime but you just really never know when it could happen!

haha backups are important..whats annoying is when you’re making a layout or writing a paper or something when your computer crashes and you realize you hadnt saved any of it yet…and have to start over
