What it does
Moving a WordPress site by hand means copying files, exporting the database, fixing URLs and hoping nothing breaks. Duplicator Pro bundles those jobs together. It creates full backups of your files and database, stores them locally or in remote cloud storage, and can run on a schedule so recent copies are always available. If an update goes wrong, recovery points let you roll the site back to an earlier working state with one click.
For migrations, a two-step wizard and an installer handle the transfer, while a search and replace tool updates URLs and file paths for the new location. You can import a backup straight from a remote server or cloud storage by URL, skipping the step of saving it to your computer first. The plugin also works with multisite networks and shared database hosting, so it fits agency workflows and more complex server setups as well as single sites.
Best for
- Developers moving client sites between hosts or domains
- Site owners who want scheduled offsite backups
- Agencies managing WordPress multisite networks

Questions about Duplicator Pro
Can it back up my site to cloud storage automatically?
Yes. You can schedule backups to run hourly, daily, weekly or monthly and send them to remote storage such as Google Drive, Dropbox, Amazon S3, OneDrive, FTP/SFTP or other S3-compatible services. Stored backups are protected with AES-256 encryption.
Will my links still work after moving to a new domain?
The migration process includes a search and replace tool that updates URLs, file paths and other stored data for the new location. This helps internal links and references point to the right place once the transfer finishes.
Does it work with WordPress multisite?
Yes. Duplicator Pro can back up and migrate entire multisite networks. It can also convert a subsite into a standalone site, or bring a standalone site into a network as a subsite.
How do I recover if an update breaks my site?
You can use recovery points to restore the site to an earlier stable state with one click. This rolls back both files and database to the saved point, which helps cut downtime after a failed update or error.
