Creating Backups In cPanel

With all of the time and effort that is put forth into building a website, it would be foolish not to secure your efforts by creating a backup. Failing to backup your website could result in months or even years of work being lost overnight. There are a number of situations that could result in data loss for your website; your server's hard drive can fail, your webhost can go out of business without warning, electrical problems can occur, and various other mishaps can take place.
