Net-Migrate

Net-Migrate is a straightforward WordPress backup and restore plugin — full functionality, no account required.

Create a full backup of your WordPress site in one click. Download any backup at any size. Restore with confidence. All free, with no account, no registration, and no catch.

Restore of any size, on any shared host — no artificial limits.

Free Features

• Unlimited backup creation — back up your entire WordPress site including all files and database, any site size
• Unlimited downloads — download any backup at full size, no restrictions
• Unlimited restore — restore any backup, any size, no cap
• URL migration — automatically detects and replaces old domain URLs when restoring to a new domain, including serialized data
• Backup integrity verification — every backup includes a checksum that is verified before restore begins, catching corrupted downloads before they touch your site
• Activity and error logging — detailed logs for every operation
• Automatic cleanup — stale temporary files removed automatically after one hour
• Manual cleanup — on-demand maintenance from the admin interface
• No account required — install, activate, and use immediately

How It Works

2. Click Create Backup — a full backup of your files and database begins immediately
3. Your backup appears in the list with options to Download, Restore, or Delete
4. To restore, click Restore, confirm, and watch the step-by-step progress. Net-Migrate handles everything.

Upgrade to Net-Migrate Pro
