Where are all the automatic backups of a WordPress site stored?

  1. On the WordPress server

  2. In the WordPress database

  3. In a cloud storage service

  4. WordPress does not have automatic backups

The correct answer is: WordPress does not have automatic backups

The assertion that WordPress does not have automatic backups is accurate because the core WordPress software itself does not include built-in functionality for automatic backups. While WordPress stores content in a database and all files in the server’s file system, the platform does not create or manage backups automatically. To maintain backups, users typically rely on third-party plugins or external services. Many of these plugins offer automatic backup features, allowing users to schedule regular backups. Some users also opt to use cloud storage services to store backup files securely. However, without the use of added plugins or manual processes, WordPress installations do not provide this feature out of the box, making the statement about the absence of automatic backups correct.
