WordPress backup plugins and services enable WP blog administrators to safely backup their site’s database and files to prevent losing their WP website to server errors, hackers, or accidents. Backup plugins for WordPress range from simple database backups to comprehensive professional WP backup solutions that create and store daily copies of your website safely on encrypted servers. Below we’ve compiled a list of some of the best free and premium WordPress backup plugins that are currently available.
Free WordPress Backup to Dropbox Plugin

WP-DB-Backup
WP-DB-Backup allows you easily to backup your core WordPress database tables. You may also backup other tables in the same database.
