Do you have any recommended method to backup my hosting account data?
1. Setup a Linux Machine or Virtual Machine (using vmware) at your home/office OR Signup for another hosting account to use its space as Backup.
2. Setup ssh keys between #1 and your hosting account
3. Use mysqldump to dump dbs on your hosting account via cron (do not overkill by doing it too often, 30 minutes looks too much especially if you have large database)
4. rsync all your data
5. Generate a Full Backup from cpanel every week or month. (which will get copied to backup space in step #4)
6. Verify that backup process is working and document disaster recovery (how you will restore your data in case of emergency).
There are lots of tutorials available with step by step instructions on how to do that if you google. Some steps are already in our KB as well.
