+Installation
+--------------
+
+* Run these commands first:
+
+  ```sh
+  curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ardakilic/backmeup/master/backmeup.sh -o backmeup.sh
+  curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ardakilic/backmeup/master/.backmeuprc -o ~/.backmeuprc
+  chmod 600 ~/.backmeuprc
+  ```
+* Now, edit the configuration values as stated [here](#configuration-values).
+* Make the files secure, executable and only accessible by your root user and group (or the user you'd like the script to run):
+
+  ```sh
+  chown root:root backmeup.sh #or any user and group who will run the script or with cron
+  chown root:root ~/.backmeuprc #or any user and group who will run the script manually or with cron
+  chmod 400 ~/.backmeuprc #Only readable by owner, and is read-only. To make it writable, change to 600 on demand
+  chmod +x backmeup.sh
+  ```
+* (Suggested) Copy or move the script into one of the `PATH`s as stated [here](#additional-notes).
+

 Configuration Values
 --------------
 After downloading the script, before running, you must edit your configuration values found in `~/.backmeuprc`:
 
 ```sh
 TIMEZONE="Europe/Istanbul" #Your timezone, for a better timestamp in archived filenames
+DBHOST="localhost" #MySQL Hostname
 DBUSER="root" #MySQL user that can dump all databases
 DBPASSWORD="" #MySQL password
+DBPORT="3306" #MySQL Port Number
 FILESROOT="/var/www" #root of your (virtual) hosting files, E.g: For apache, it is /var/www, for nginx, it's /usr/share/nginx/html "WITHOUT THE END TRAILING SLASH"
 BASEFOLDER="/tmp" #Temporary folder to create database dump folder (a subfolder will be created to this folder upon dumping)
 BACKUPFOLDER="backmeup" #your backup folder that'll be created on Backup provider
 METHOD="dropbox" #Method name, can be "dropbox" or "s3". More providers soon
 S3_BUCKET_NAME="my-aws-bucket" #AWS S3 Bucket name
-S3_STORAGE_CLASS="STANDARD_IA" #AWS S3 storage class. Values can be "STANDARD", "REDUCED_REDUNDANCY", "STANDARD_IA". http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/cp.html
+S3_STORAGE_CLASS="STANDARD_IA" #AWS S3 storage class. Values are "STANDARD", "REDUCED_REDUNDANCY", "STANDARD_IA". http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/cp.html
 ```
 
 On-the-fly Configuration
 --------------
 You can set various configuration values on the fly. Here are some full featured examples:
 
 ```
-backmeup -tz "Europe/Istanbul" -dbu root -dbpass rootpass -f "/usr/share/nginx/html" -b "/tmp" -bf=my_backups -m s3 -s3bn my-aws-bucket -s3sc STANDARD_IA
+backmeup -tz "Europe/Istanbul" -dbh localhost -dbu root -dbpass rootpass -dbp 3306 -f "/usr/share/nginx/html" -b "/tmp" -bf=my_backups -m s3 -s3bn my-aws-bucket
 ```
 
 Or like this:
 
 ````
-backmeup --timezone="Europe/Istanbul" --database-user="root" --database-password="rootpass" --files-root="/usr/share/nginx/html" --base-folder="/tmp" --backup-folder=my-remote-backup-folder --s3-storage-class=STANDARD_IA
+backmeup --timezone="Europe/Istanbul" --database-host="localhost" --database-user="root" --database-password="rootpass" --database-port="3306" --files-root="/usr/share/nginx/html" --base-folder="/tmp" --backup-folder=my-remote-backup-folder
 ```
 
 None of these are mandatory, you can just use any of these however you want, and even mix together!

 Version History
 --------------
+###1.1.0
+* You can now define "Database Host" and "Database Port" parameters, so you may even get dumps from remote services such as Amazon RDS. `DBHOST` and `DBHOST` values should be added in `.backmeuprc`
+* The version numbers will follow Semantic Versioning from now on.
+
 ###1.0.1
 * External configuration file support. Now you can update backmeup hassle-free! The file's located at: `~/.backmeuprc`
 * Amazon S3 Storage Class Support: Now you can set how the backup will be stored ([Normal or Infrequent Access](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/storage-classes/) or [Reduced Redundancy](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/reduced-redundancy/) for lesser storage costs).
