A backup is a copy of a website that is kept on a separate hosting server and could be restored if something goes wrong with the live website - an unsuccessful script update, an unintentional deletion of a file or of your entire database, and so forth. Restoring the website the way it was shall eradicate or reduce the damage the issue may have caused, that's by all means a lot better alternative than having to reconstruct the entire website from scratch. Although you can download a copy of your content on your personal computer, keeping a backup is a functionality that the majority of hosting providers include as part of their packages.

Make sure that you see how easily a backup could be restored, which can be vital if some issue appears on your site.
