Keep a local backup of your cPanel account
The cPanel interface allows you to create a complete backup of your hosting account that can be kept on your local computer. In case something unexpected occurs, you can provide us you backup copy and we will restore the account to a working state. The Full Backup created by cPanel includes the files of your site, the databases, all emails stored on the servers, FTP accounts, configurations and more.

If you'd like, you can also backup your Home Directory, a database, email forwarders or email filters further in the page. You can download them directly!
Important
The backup file cannot be kept on your hosting space. It must be downloaded and kept on your computer. This is for security reasons.
The backup file creation time is proportional to the size of your account.
It is not possible to do a partial restore of the backup. The complete account will be restored and any previous files/information will be replaced.
