Backing Up Your Website At Bluehost

Website backup is a must for every website, the backup process should be done regularly weekly, or monthly to avoid accidental data losses.

At Bluehost, using the backups feature allows you to download (to your computer) a zipped copy of either you entire site (your home directory, databases, email forwarders configuration, email filters configuration) or one of the previously mentioned parts of your site. These are not automatically scheduled backups. Automatically scheduled backups need to be enabled by the server owner / administrator.
