Manual vs Guided Site Restoration
If something does happen to your website using your backup files is much like taking them – you can attempt to restore your site manually or by using a plugin. If you choose to do it yourself, you’re going to have to upload your database (which in some cases may also require you to create a new one) and re-add all of your actual site files via FTP. If you’re not comfortable with WordPress development or using developer tools like Transmit or cPanel then this can be a scary process.
