Click Export and Fast Backups packages everything into one portable .wpbackup file, ready to download or restore anywhere.

Before every store update, I can create a complete backup in a few clicks. It gives our team confidence to move quickly without putting the business at risk.
I coordinate several client launches at once, so I need backups that are easy to understand. The workflow is clear, predictable, and simple to hand off.
I run the business myself and don’t have time for complicated server tools. Backups and restores are straightforward, and I always know what the plugin is doing.
Install Fast Backups from Plugins → Add Plugin, open Fast Backups → Export and click Export. Your database, media, themes, plugins and supported site files are packaged into one .wpbackup file you can download.
The database (including plugin and theme settings), the uploads folder, installed themes and plugins, supported site-root files and a validation manifest.
Go to Fast Backups → Backups and click Restore, or upload a .wpbackup file under Import. The archive is validated, then the database and files are restored with live progress. A restore replaces the current site, so back up the destination first.
Export a backup on the old site, install Fast Backups on the new site and import the file. On a different domain, old URLs are replaced, including inside serialized data. Afterwards, clear caches and re-save Settings → Permalinks.
