Backing up the website

Hi,

My website has lots of media files other than the MySQL database. I saw a post on database backups but i want to ask, what is a good procedure for backing up the whole public folder too ? (thats where all the user files are)

Does hostingrails have a backup policy. Or is backup totally user responsibility? I can backup the files to a hard-drive at home, but is this a good policy. How about some online backup services ?

Regards

Hi,
You can use the cPanel backup utility to backup the files in your account.
HostingRails do have a backup policy and we do take regular backups to restore the data in case if anything goes wrong with the whole server. However we strongly recommend you to take regular backups of your data and keep it on a different computer. Backing up your data is your responsibility.
