This option in your control panel allows you to
compress your directories and/or files located in your account. This is
an excellent way to backup your own files. It will serve as double
protection should anything ever go wrong with our backups. We cannot
guarantee the quality of our backups as these are geared more toward
restoring an entire server. We HIGHLY recommend that you make it common
practice to backup your own web pages. In the event that we are unable
to recover your pages, you will be able to restore your own pages.
In your cPanel Control Panel click on Backup then click on Full Backups
"Generate/Download a Full Backup" (all the settings for your web
hosting account) or "Download a home directory Backup" (everything in
your web space). If it is a copy of your web site & its files,
email folders, etc. that you want to back up, choose the Home Directory
Backup. Save the backup file to your own hard drive for safe keeping.
If you save a backup only to your web space, not only do you not have a
copy of your own to easily upload when you want to restore, but you
also will quickly use up a lot of space in your web hosting account.
