Easy steps to take backup of your website via cPanel for your Dedicated Hosting Account.
The very first step in the backup procedure would be to login to your cPanel account. Once you are on the front page, then find and click the icon marked “Backup”. This will take you to the cPanel Backup screen.
The full backups are backups of your entire web site and everything in it except for MySQL databases. To generate a full back, click on the link at the top of the page that reads, “Generate/Download a Full Backup”.
For a normal backup generation,
- Just select from the Backup Destination drop down menu, “Home Directory”.
- Next, put in your e-mail address in the second box and skip over the remote settings.
- Click on the button that reads, “Generate Backup” and you should be e-mailed once the backup is ready to download. When it is, you can come back and get it.
- To, download your backup, login to cPanel and click on “Backup”.
- From there, under full backups click on the text link that reads, “Download a home directory backup”.
