SpeedyPage runs automatic server-side backups for all Web Hosting and WordPress Hosting accounts. Starter and Premium plans get daily backups. Enterprise plans get twice-daily backups. These backups are managed through JetBackup and stored off-server. You can restore files, databases, email accounts, and cron jobs directly from JetBackup in cPanel, or download your own backup copies using cPanel’s built-in Backup tool.

​

Use JetBackup’s File Backups to restore a single file you accidentally deleted or overwrote, without affecting the rest of your account.

​
Download a full backup

A full backup contains all your files, databases, email accounts, and cPanel settings. You can use it to migrate your account or keep an off-site copy.
1

Open the Backup interface

Log in to cPanel through your client area or at yourdomain.com/cpanel. Go to Files and click Backup.
2

Generate the backup

Click Download a Full Account Backup. Select Home Directory as the destination to save it on the server, then click Generate Backup. You can enter an email address to be notified when the backup is ready.
3

Download the file

Once the backup is generated, it appears as a link on the same page. Click the filename to download it. The file is a .tar.gz archive.
Full backups cannot be restored through cPanel. If you need to restore a full backup, contact SpeedyPage support.

​
Download a partial backup

Partial backups let you download individual parts of your account. In the Backup interface, scroll to the Partial Backups section:
Backup typeWhat it contains
Home DirectoryAll files in your home directory, including public_html and email data
MySQL DatabasesA .sql dump of an individual database (click its name to download)
Email ForwardersForwarder rules for a specific domain
Email FiltersAccount-level (global) email filters
Click the item you want to download. The file saves to your computer.

​
Restore a partial backup

You can restore home directory, database, email forwarder, and email filter backups directly in cPanel.
1

Go to the Backup interface

In cPanel, go to Files > Backup and scroll down to the Restore section.
2

Select the restore type

Click the type that matches your backup file: Home Directory, MySQL Databases, Email Forwarders, or Email Filters.
3

Upload the backup file

Click Choose File, select the backup from your computer, and click Upload. cPanel restores the data automatically.
The backup process can fail if your account is at or over its disk quota. Free up space or contact support if you run into issues.

​
Backup Wizard

If you prefer a guided experience, use the Backup Wizard instead. Go to Files > Backup Wizard in cPanel. It walks you through the same backup and restore steps in a simpler step-by-step layout.
Keep a copy of your backups on your own computer or cloud storage, not just on the server. That way you have an independent copy if anything happens to the hosting account.
