As well as being easy to build<\/a> and simple to deploy<\/a>, static websites are easy to backup and, if needed, restore.<\/p>\n\n

I backup several static websites from my server using rsync - the same command I use to deploy them.<\/p>\n\n

rsync is fast as it only downloads files that have changed, so backing up several websites only takes a few seconds.<\/p>\n\n

There are are no databases to worry about - all I need to do is backup the static files themselves.<\/p>\n\n
