How to create Snapshots of your Website

A web snapshot is a snapshot of the content of your web page on a specific day and time.

At SW Hosting you can create snapshots of all your websites, through your SWPanel service management tool.

The steps to create a snapshot are:

1. From the search box of your SWPanel, you must locate the service where the website you want to create a Snapshot is hosted.
