If you want to backup your site using Akeeba Backup for Joomla, the process is pretty simple. First, you’ll need to create a Akeeba Backup account. Once you have an account, you can sign in and access the Backup Wizard. From here, you’ll need to select your site from the list of sites, and then fill out the required information. Next, you’ll select the type of backup you want to create. Akeeba Backup offers three types of backUPS: full, differential, and snapshot. Full backUPS include all of the site’s content and settings, while differential backUPS only backup changes since the last full backup. Snapshot backUPS only backup the current state of the site. After you have selected the type of backup you want to create, you’ll need to select the data to be backed up.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with Joomla or Akeeba Backup, we recommend that you seek help from a qualified professional before proceeding. Improper installation of Akeeba Backup can potentially leave your website vulnerable to attack.

This will include the site’s content, database, and images. You can also backup your site’s files and folders. After you have selected the data to be backed up, you’ll need to choose a destination for the backup. Akeeba Backup offers three storage locations: your computer, a remote server, or a storage service. After you have chosen a destination, you’ll need to provide Akeeba Backup with the necessary information. This includes the site’s name, URL, and password. Finally, you’ll create the backup. Akeeba Backup will create a backup file and then email you the file’s location.
