We’re excited to announce that free daily backups are now included on every IAMEM Hosting plan — at no extra cost. Your website, databases, and email are now automatically backed up every day, so you can build, update, and experiment with confidence. If anything ever goes wrong, restoring is just a click away.
What’s Changing
Until now, keeping reliable backups was something many site owners had to manage themselves. Starting today, IAMEM Hosting handles it for you automatically across all Shared, WordPress, and Reseller plans. There’s nothing to install and nothing to configure — it’s on by default.
What’s Backed Up — and How Often
| Item | Included | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Website files | ✅ Yes | Daily |
| Databases (MySQL/MariaDB) | ✅ Yes | Daily |
| Email accounts | ✅ Yes | Daily |
| Retention | 7 daily + 4 weekly restore points | |
Backups are stored on separate infrastructure from your live account, so they remain safe even if the primary server has an issue.
How to Restore Your Site
Restoring is self-service and takes just a few clicks from your control panel:
- Log in to your cPanel dashboard.
- Open the Backups (JetBackup) section.
- Choose a restore point and select what to recover — files, a database, or email.
- Click Restore and confirm. That’s it.
You can restore your entire account or just a single file or database — perfect for undoing a bad plugin update without touching the rest of your site.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to enable anything?
No. Daily backups are active automatically on all eligible plans.
Does this replace my own backups?
It’s a strong safety net, but we always recommend keeping your own off-site copy of anything critical — the 3-2-1 rule never goes out of style.
Will backups slow down my site?
No. Backups run in the background with minimal overhead and don’t affect your site’s performance for visitors.
Get Started
There’s nothing to do — free daily backups are already protecting your account. Log in to cPanel to explore your restore points, and reach out to our support team any time if you’d like a hand. At IAMEM Hosting, your data’s safety is on us.
