I am planning to make a mirror site with the help of your Auto FTP Manager.

Here are the steps I would like to do:

1. I'll prepare new domain and hosting for the mirror site.

2. Then, I'll make a full backup of the web site files and MySQL database separately from the existing installation into my desk size computer.

3. Upload the backups (site files and database) separately into the new hosting with the help of your Auto FTP Manager.

Do you think the above approach will work?

Yes, that will work using Auto FTP Manager.

You will require 2 automated profiles. The first will download and keep a backup on your local PC and the second profile will upload from your PC to your mirror site. You can use the action rules to transfer new or changed files. Here is more information on setting action rules:

Use the scheduler to execute each transfer profile separately and with enough time in between schedules so that there is no overlap of transfers.
