You can export a database from Hostinger using the phpMyAdmin tool, which is accessible from your Hostinger control panel.
Steps to Export a Database from Hostinger:
- Log in to your Hostinger control panel.
- Navigate to the "Databases" section.
- Select "phpMyAdmin."
- Choose the database you want to export.
- Click on the "Export" tab.
- Select the desired export format (e.g., SQL, CSV).
- Choose any additional options (e.g., compression, specific tables).
- Click on the "Go" button.
The database will be exported as a file, which you can then download and save to your computer.
Practical Insights:
- You can use the exported database file to restore your data on a different server or to create a backup.
- Hostinger offers a feature called "Database Backups," which automatically creates backups of your databases at regular intervals. You can access and download these backups through your Hostinger control panel.
- Consider using a third-party tool like MySQL Workbench for exporting and managing your databases, as it offers more advanced features.
